A little bit of symmetry

Day 8 of 21

There a beautiful symmetry for us today.

Not only did we start phase 2 of our nutritional cleanse, we are entering into the 40 days of Lent and the cleansing of our souls.

With coming into our second week and dietary restrictions our program in a way fits in perfectly with fasting that we would typically do during the Lenten season.

This cleanse is not easy, it takes effort, planning, preparing and diligence in staying on track with the supplements and eating the recommended meals and it is completely doable.  The wonderful news is that at the end of the day if you are ALL IN and commit 100 % you will see results.

We are ALL IN , NO EXCUSES and committed 100% and have been seeing results all along.

On day 8 of 21:

- I have lost 9.8 pounds and John has lost 7.7 pounds
- I have energy
- I am sleeping better
- My skin feels great, all that hydration is doing its job
- I am feeling strong and confident in my skin 

We eat real food and the recipes books have some great recipes some that we will continue to make and others not so much.

Our menu today was great.  Breakfast was a fresh fruit plate. Lunch as the microgreen salad with avocado and toasted pumpkin seeds and our dinner was rice and beans with steamed zucchini and green beans.  The meals are filling and in between there are supplements like the power greens and detox that help to keep us full.

Preparing and planning is key and we needed a few more things to get through the next phase that began today.  There was not enough time to shop for everything but we got most of what we needed.  And we were running low on water so that was a must!

With busy schedules the time we spend preparing our lunches and some of the components to our meals makes it easy to manage during the week.  

Our second week and I think we may have this down!!
