But first! A little progress report. During the cleanse I was able to shed about 14 pounds, & another 2 during the first 2 days of transitioning.
I am currently on my 4th and last day of transitioning and like I mentioned in my last post, I knew I would inevitably gain a few pounds back once solids came back into the picture. As of today I have gained back around 2 pounds, which is OK! I've got 6 more weeks to get to my goal of a 25 pound weight loss. And since I'm back on solids & able to get some protein in, I can safely increase the intensity of my workout (which I have actually been slacking on).
If you Click Here & go back to my previous post, you will find detailed instructions on how to properly transition out of the cleanse. It is important that you follow the instructions only making minor modifications if necessary. If you finish your cleanse & immediately scarf down a bacon cheeseburger... You. Will. Get. Sick.
Here's a list of everything I used to transition out of the MC:
- Water & Lemon Water
- Fresh Squeezed Orange Juice
- Herbal Teas (caffeine free, w/ honey)
- Vegetable Soup (I ate the Progresso canned soups minus the pasta)
- Fresh Fruits
- Vegetables (Fresh or Sauteed)
- Rice Crackers
- Multi-Vitamins & Probiotics
So, there you have it! The cleanse is history, I'm almost done transitioning & I'm ready for the next phase of my plan. VEGAN...at least the dietary aspect of veganism....for the next two weeks.
& here's a peek at my fridge...just because! Vegan recipes forthcoming!
