The Fruit Flush with a little reading

Alright, so it's been little while. 

But, it is only because I have been discovering some
LIFE CHANGING
ways of eating right & making better decisions for myself !

I hope I can influence you to do the same.

Over the past week I have focused many things, but amongst them I spent  A LOT  of time on two specifics:
  • I researched a few cleanses that are designed to aide in digestion and decided to do "THE FRUIT FLUSH" designed by Jay Robb, is designed to flush out toxins while eating fresh raw fruit and vegetables throughout a three day process.  His site which has all the information listed is a great source for finding out more about how to clean your body out!

  • I also started (and finished) the book SKINNY BITCH by Rory Freedman and Kim Barnouin and discovered that being "skinny" is way easier than it seems!

let me explain ..

Personally, I decided to do The Fruit Flush from Friday, Feb. 17, to Sunday, Feb. 19, 2012.  I decided to "cleanse" based on the fact that I wanted to rid my body of the extra 7 lbs. (approximately) that is held in your intestine (even if you just went to the bathroom & THINK you got "it" all out).  By eating fruits and vegetables combined throughout the three days, along with a ton of protein on "Day 1" and a lot of water the entire cleanse, your body begins to get rid of the toxins and break your old food addiction problems. 

“During the 3-Day Fruit Flush, your system is relieved of the digestive burden of eating other foods and can clean out its system while burning fat because fruit is nature’s perfect cleansing food," says personal trainer and certified clinical nutritionist Jay Robb, author of the Fruit Flush 3 Day Detox.

As a result from the cleanse, I personally lost six pounds, keeping in mind results vary
This allowed for me to kick some food addictions I had prior while also allowing my body to detox from toxins and set itself up to continue on a healthy eating path.

I confused myself a little when I found myself reading Skinny Bitch throughout the 3-day cleanse and realized I need to make even GREATER changes in my diet, even though I thought I was already on a pretty good track (minus the cupcakes and desserts I would occasionally crave).

The book Skinny Bitch really opened my eyes to   A LOT   of information concerning what I have been doing wrong, along with what   many   people are doing wrong, on a daily basis with what we are eating. 

Stated on their site: If you can't take one more day of self-loathing, you're ready to hear the truth: You cannot keep shoveling the same crap into your mouth every day and expect to lose weight.

I know that this is a bunch of information to take in at once, but trust me, I   HIGHLY  suggest looking into first The Fruit Flush and follow it by reading the book Skinny Bitch.

The Book !! - - >



I am going to give everyone some time to research  BOTH  of the topics I covered and follow up in a couple of days.  Mind you, I have not   EVER   read a book cover to cover until Skinny Bitch!

Do it.
