Prep - Day 3

Change of Plans

After carefully reading and considering the information in Sexy Forever, I have decided to delay the start of this program to try the Sexy Forever Maqui Juice Blend.  Suzanne believes this tool will jump-start the cleansing and weight loss process by helping the body to target the built-up toxins in your cells and release the stored fat.  She claims that it's especially helpful for people over 40 because their system is starting to slow down so more toxins get trapped.  It's also good for the immune system and healthy liver function.

About 3 years ago I was diagnosed with colitis, and while my symptoms are improved I still don't have regular bowel movements.  Some of my flare-ups are due to certain foods and medications, so mostly I put up with applesauce for poop!  After doing a little research, I found out that maqui juice cleanses are actually good for people with my condition.  So, I'm hopeful and am willing to give it a try.

You have to order it from Suzanne's Sexy Forever website.  She recommends that you follow the instructions and use it on Days 1 and 2 of the Detox Phase.  While I haven't received it yet, it sounds like you fast by eating soft foods and liquids while you experience the thrill of 'elimination'.  Suzanne claims it's not that extreme, so you don't have to commit to staying home for two days.  Yeah!

So, goodbye toxins and hello to a potentially good start.  In the meantime, my husband and I have been eating up supplies in our pantry so we won't be tempted down the road.  And, what we can't eat by this weekend we'll donate to a food pantry.

I'm very lucky to have a husband who is willing to go on this plan with me.  As he has with every other diet plan I have tried, with little success.  Meal preparation is much easier when you've got a supportive partner.  Did I mention how lucky I am to have him?

So, with that I'm saying goodbye to white pasta and rice, raisin brand cereal, popcorn, tortilla chips, and Italian and sour dough bread.  My favorite things to eat, but oh so bad for me.  But, I'm going to enjoy them while they last over the next couple days.
