My Clean 9 Detox Journal Part 2; Day 4

In my post, Clean 9 Detox Journal Part 1, I had promised to write back in 10 days, but there is so much happening and am afraid I will not capture it all in one post. I will therefore break down part 2 into the 9 days, just to make sure you get the the most info, relate to your experience and hopefully get inspiration from my experience.

Day 4

Tuesday was an early morning for me I needed to be in the office by 7:00 am. I took my Forever breakfast save for the Ultra Lite Shake. I was going to have it in the office. The previous night I had packed some lunch (What I would have had for dinner) Liver, Green beans, Carrots, Tomato and Rice. In my hurry to leave I forgot the lunch! I have always laughed at my colleagues who have forgotten their packed lunches. I never thought I would ever forget mine - I mean, who forgets food? 

Luckily I had enough ultra lite in the office. My only worry would have been where in town to get food that conforms to the clean 9 diet in terms of low fat, low salt 600 calories - I am better of managing that myself. My advice to you if you will be reporting to work and choose to have the meal for lunch instead of dinner, prepare some food yourself and pack it.

At lunch I felt the need to change my shake flavor. I got myself a packet of Soy milk. I had never liked soy milk, though I had also never tasted the flavored varieties, When my dad was doing his detox, he had told me he enjoyed mixing his shake with the chocolate flavored soy milk. I therefore decided to get it. For those in Nairobi, Soy milk is available at Nakumatt and Tuskys Supermarkets, and comes in lots of more flavors. In other cities/towns, you may check at the supermarkets, If its not available, try almond or coconut milk. 

I poured 300ml into my shaker, added some ice cubes and the Ultra lite. Oh boy! this is the yummiest and sweetest drink I have had all week. Tasted like chocolate milkshake - I am a sweet tooth and enjoyed this to the last drop! I actually think I could live on this. To some extent I felt like I was cheating on my detox. If you don't 'sweet', please try the unflavored one.

My Clean 9 detox Journal Part 2 - Day 2

In my post, Clean 9 Detox Journal Part 1, I had promised to write back in 10 days, but there is so much happening and am afraid I will not capture it all in one post. I will therefore break down part 2 into the 9 days, just to make sure you get the the most info and hopefully inspiration from my experience. 

Day 2:

I woke up earlier than usual for a Sunday. I think its the excitement. I was so thirsty I headed to get some water first - irony as yesterday I had had enough of it. I was also feel light headed and was craving sugar badly. The number of times I paced in the kitchen while trying to fight the temptation to bite something sugary are countless. I had breakfast, a replica of day 1.

Then began my 30 minute exercise - dance. What would have been the better time to learn the moves in the new dance video, #UnconditionallyBae? Felt good sweating. I am surely loving this fitness journey.

After my forever therm snack, i could not handle the sugar craving. I decided to get an Orange, got thin slices which i would lick every time the craving came. It worked miracles!

At lunch I decided to experiment a bit with my shake. I added a pear and blended them together. The change of texture was welcome and i felt quite full.

The rest of the went well, dint feel hungry at all. If you start your Clean 9 program and hunger comes biting, on page 11 of the booklet lists a number of fruits and veges (low GI foods) you can bite on in moderation, but not exceeding 300 calories. Most of these food are those classified as zero calorie foods as the body uses more calories to process these food than the calories they contain.

Among them are pears which are currently in season. Its definitely very timely to start the detox as pears are less expensive, having just 1 will make you feel fuller for longer and they are very low on calorie content.

How does it work?
Science explains that our fat cells become surrounded by toxins. These toxins come from our convenience or processed diets, toxins in the atmosphere, our homes, our cars and environment.
C9 works by stripping away those toxins such that the fat cells are then exposed and the body can now access this ‘food store’ for energy production (by converting to Glycogen).

These fat cells then get burnt up when we exercise (or exercise more) and over time, hence weight loss.

Weight loss with Clean is on average 2-5 kgs, most of this from the tummy area. So if you are always working towards a flat tummy, C9 is a good bet. However, if your goal is to lose more than 5kgs, then you need continue with the Forever FIT 1 (30 days) that helps to burn fat and lose weight & Forever FIT 2 (30 Days)that helps to tone up and build lean muscle hence sustaining your weight loss.
