7:50am I took my pills & then fiber drink 30 min later 10am~ breakfast (wasn't hungry) 1.5 cup of grapes
11:20am snack ~1 apple
12:30pm Lunch~ 2 cups lettuce salad with cran/rasp dressing & 1.5 servings steamed mixed veggies (no corn) it was green beans, zucchini & carrots in a light rosemary butter sauce... very minimal sauce & most stayed at the bottom of the bowl so it's not like it had that much on it at all & 1 clementine. Have tuna but not hungry to eat that just yet now 3pm...
No rest for the wicked tonight... my private Zumba session canceled out.. however am filling in from 5:20-6:20 @ S N' S & 6:35-7 @snap & my regular class of 7:15-8:15pm for Zumba @ S N' S. 2.5 hours of Back 2 Back Zumba.. I must be nuts. :P
Anyways, upon looking at my suggested eating sheet for the next 14 days I noticed I had failed to be taking 4-6 Omega-plex vitamins with dinner each night... *rolling eyes* I did take them today. I personally had been taking Omega-3 vitamins (usually this or that brand) & hadn't ever noticed a difference. If your taking the 24 day challenge however it probably would have been a good idea to take them as the sheet said in small bold print on the suggested foods sheet. It was NOT in the text or packet that was in the 10 day cleanse mentioning anything about it. Obviously, it might have helped. I'm not sure as it's not my weigh in day but I'm fairly confident I dropped 10 lbs. in 10 days. I didn't go hungry either. I actually could have eaten more from the suggested food list but didn't feel like I needed it or felt full.
9:30pm dinner (amazingly i'd been not famished at this point) which is shocking after all that exercise.
1 protein patty called "smart cutlets" (aka. veggie patty) in marinara sauce a .99 special for 2 patties so that's lunch tomorrow! NO HFCS or anything that I shouldn't be eating in it so super healthy. I'm glad I picked up all of them as they are dated for later this week. They were good & very tasteful. 1 larger sized baked potato with some of the "buttery spread" on them non-dairy non hydronaged oils (or however you spell that) Too late to go look it up & green beans & a tiny bit of bacon mixed in (from the restaurant saturday night) bacon's not on the list so it was my little treat & of course as always lots of water. Feel stuffed. 11pm bedtime. Tomorrow day 1 of the 14 day metabolic & energy restore.

Lunch can of tuna, 1 serving cashews, HB egg. Yeah, didn't have much time to eat... :( too much talking not enough eating.
Snack~ HB egg & some grapes (1 serving) cashews
Dinner was salad & the cran/rasp dressing, apple, banana, 1 serving cashews.

Day 7~ Friday 2/4
2 probiatics this morning 8:30am
9:48am Breakfast~ 1/2 packet of Spark, 1 banana & 1 clementine.
12:15pm Lunch~ Tomato lettuce, peas, carrots & red cabbage salad. Cranberries & cran-rasp organic dressing.
Oh great... food up front... yummy cheese & processed meat tray... so not going to do it. Had only they done that like Tuesday next week I would have taken a piece or 2... :( Oh well salad tastes almost as good as 153.6 feels! Best I've weighed in over 4 years now... if I hit 117 (barely) I haven't weighed that since spring of 2004.
3:40pm~Snack 2 HB eggs, a little salt & a clementine
5:45pm Dinner~ BWW 6 wings with the vinegar & salt dry seasonings.. 2 honey BBW boneless wings & 5 pieces of celery (only a few got lightly dipped into Ranch) & 4 small French fries these aren't no McD's huge honkers we're talking about. I know, not exactly on the list of ideal foods but hubby won't eat wings that have bones in them I haven't cheated too much & will pick some of the skin off so i'm not eating it all. Will see what they also have that I should eat... Don't think there will be much at all. :( Most is deep fried & very bad for you. Didn't get anything else.. nothing was on the menu without modifications I could eat during the cleanse. So yeah I guess I was bad. My tummy hurts a tiny bit. Not sure if it's guilt or the food I ate (greasy). Broke everything by eating Breaded chicken (the boneless 2 pieces), fried foods & even a little bit of dairy in there. (I really didn't have that much Ranch). I might have a few grapes but feeling pretty full right now at 8:45pm. Jamie got me an early Vday present as I took my wedding set in to be resized down an ENTIRE size. It was starting to twist around when I was typing, more than a major annoyance when you have over 2 carots on your rings. I really feel naked without my ring. Obviously, with not weighing this in 4 years I wouldn't have been this weight to know that it would have gotten this loose. Not to mention we can't afford me to lose it or have it fly off & hit someone during Zumba either. They had some Vday sales going on & I got a man made ruby heart & SS ring early so I can wear that while my ring is being resized until 2/19. :)
Totally forgot that I will be taking my 3 cleansing pills before bed with appropriate water.

Day 6- THU 2/3
I forgot to post I had to go dig out some smaller Pj's as I was getting tired of the ones I had that tied almost falling off... sorry to my sister who bought me the cool now too big penguin PJ's I'll save them for if I need them if/when we have a kid.
This morning started off great! I had to go into the "too small" & stuff I don't wear much closet which usually collects dust most of the time... Got up the nerve to try on a pair of cords & the size 8 pants fit! A little snug but they buttoned & everything!
8:20am~ morning probiatic pills & water
9:40am-forgot to eat (it's busy at work) but did have some grapes after I remembered.
11am I found out our adopted less than 2 months ago foster pug died. :_( We had her for almost 5 months & she was the sweetest dog but needed to go to a family with no other pets as she didn't get along well long term with dogs or cats all that great. I'm just devastated about it.
1pm- hungry. but don't feel like eating... still feel horrible about past foster dogs very untimely death.
Eating, but still not feeling good stomach hurts but it's from the crying. 2 Bananas & grapes so far...2:41pm
4pm clementine... stomach still upset, it's coming & going in waves though so everything is coming to terms & going better. It's hard to explain right now but there were meaningful conversations with the "furever" family that makes it so difficult & makes me feel like I should have seen something or thinking back that I missed some sign that she wasn't feeling top notch or something. There wasn't much of anything that I didn't think was out of the ordinary. :(
8pm~ Eating dinner still don't really feel like it but I know grief takes time to come to terms with.
Made a substitute from the regular diet i'm pretty sure it would be ok. sauteed some squid in a tiny bit of olive oil & added a tiny dash of white wine near the end... I know... I couldn't help it. I figured most of it cooked out or was left in the pan anyways. 1.5 cups of white whole grain rice & 1.5 cups of frozen green beans with a tiny bit of "buttery spread" aka. non-dairy stuff... I know that can't be any better than just using a tiny bit of butter but I already had it in the house so it's not like I'm going to throw out food or anything. I'll just have to use it up slower than I used too as I am also seeing how eating better healthier food even though it's more expensive is better for you in the long run.
11pm bedtime & it was a rough night I kept thinking about things I shouldn't have & working myself up again.

Day 5- WED. 2/2
Hope that groundhoggy is right... man with SnOMG hit Chicago & most of the lower part of WI. missing us I was just happy to have 4 ft. drifts in my way this morning.
8:10am~ probiatic restore & water
Breakfast 9:10am~ clementine & banana
Hungry at noon-- phone was lit up like Grand Central on break...
Lunch 12:45 1.5 servings Green Giant steamed special blend veggies (no corn) 1 cup fake crab meat (aka fish) & a clementine.
afternoon snack 4pm ~Banana
Zumba Curves in Holmen 1/2 hour only... no one was able to make the 6:15pm tonight I guess. The weather wasn't that great & the temps started getting into the wind chill level.
7:15pm-8:15pm 1 hour Shake N' Shed Zumba.
8:25pm ~ Yes, I was hungry at this point... I was looking for the banana that I know was in my purse & it was there the whole time but couldn't find it for some reason.
Quick stop into the grocery store. Picked up 4 bags of lettuce at 59¢ each. Some dated 2/10 not kidding. I guess that must have been a mistake. & a few other healthy items.
9:15pm~ 1 boneless skinless chicken breast reheated. Yes, I did have to break down & use a tiny bit of BBQ sauce with HFCS in it, green beans with 0 cal. buttery spread (no dairy in it) It's not margarine either.
2.5 cups of lettuce, carrots & cabbage mix & 1 TBS. of dried cranberries, HB egg & 2 TBS. of raspberry/cran organic dressing. (NO HFCS in it or dairy) a few grapes for dessert.
10:50pm Bedtime & 3 green cleanse pills & water.
Want the real kicker of a great way to end the day I weighed myself several times as I couldn't believe the scale... 155.0 Yeah... my Saturday weigh in on Jan. 29th 161.4 I have lost 6.4 lbs in 4.5 days. I haven't weighed 155 in over 4 years possibly since sometime in late 2005 I might have weighed around that.
I'm guessing some of it is the "tweeks" in the diet this week. Which I had been doing on my own too the previous 3 months adjusting & further adjustments dropping dairy & white flours, but no way that it is the only thing that has caused that much weight loss. The most I'd seen in an entire week in the past 3 months was about 2.2 lbs. with the dietary adjustments... I'm still not at an entire week into the cleanse yet. If I've been hungry I've eaten something. Off of the list of course but I've not starved or felt hungry at ALL unless it was an unreasonable time between me eating which is my own fault.
I've had that hump right around 157 that I couldn't really break for a few years now. Not to mention the fact that my advisor has mentioned that a lot of the weight actually comes off during the 14 days after the 10 day challenge. So I am going to just keep doing what I'm doing & I will continue to work on the end goal & be happy with whatever that is. :)
