Cleansing

If you remember back last April James and I did a cleanse. I lost I think 12 lbs. We are cleansing again starting tomorrow. Last time we had no idea how hard it was going to be for us. We were not prepared at all. We were not vegetable eaters at all except for a few baby carrots and "fixings" on burger. The first 11 days are fruit and vegetable only, and you have to have twice as many vegetables than fruit. That was hard. We ate a lot of salsa and were very happy to get emails with recipes in them. We found out that we liked spaghetti squash and we had a great recipe for roasted broccoli. We also found out that we can make great salads.
This time we are more prepared. We have a whole weeks worth of meals/recipes ready to go! We have found a few substitutes that will allow us to have food we otherwise could not have. I am very excited about this! I know that I am going to feel so good in the end. We are also going to be training for the Cap10K during this cleanse so we are going to have to be careful that we are getting enough food/calories/protein to fuel us during our runs as they are already getting much longer than I am used to.
You can follow my run training on my side bar from dailymile. You can also join dailymile.com to track your own training. We can spur each other on!
