7-Day Cleanse Day 1

Hooray!! Diet Day 1!!

Lol. As you can see I'm really excited. Today I started Day 1 of my 7-day cleanse diet! So far it's kind of weird but I'm hoping I'll see good results! I weighed myself this morning and it was 172.6 so we'll see! Day 1 you're supposed to eat as many fruits as possible and drink lots of water. It's supposed to be mostly melons and citrus fruits and no bananas. Honestly, by the end of the day I was a little tired of fruit so I'm glad that tomorrow is vegetables. This diet may only be 7 days long but it is HARD so far! And I'm only on Day 1!! Every time I walk into the kitchen I want to grab something like crackers or macaroni and cheese, then on Ellen they were talking about pizza! IT'S TORTURE. I just hope it's worth it!

I did read a quote about losing weight that made a lot of sense to me though.
"You're on a mission, not a vacation."
It's such a good reminder that my efforts will not be useless. And it's also a reminder that you won't see progress without some hard work.

I should also let you know that I have had to use the bathroom sooo many times. Haha. At least once every hour.

Anyways, here is what I ate today.

Breakfast:

- 1 apple

- 1 orange

- 1 grapefruit

- 1/4 of a watermelon

- 33 oz. of water

Lunch:

- 1 apple

- 1 orange

- 1 grapefruit

- 1/4 of a watermelon
- A mug of Lipton green tea with lemon (all of the fruit was making me cold!!)
- 9 oz. of water

Dinner:

- 1 apple

- 1 orange

- A cup of black coffee
- 24 oz. of water

And here is all of the exercise I did.

- Brisk 25 minute walk (It ended up being almost 1 1/4 miles)

- This arm workout video

Guys, I swear by Pinterest for all of my workouts. You can find anything you want on there, seriously.

I'll keep y'all updated on everything for the rest of the week! Who knows? If things go well I might do it for a second week! That is, if I can stand it. Haha.

Talk to you tomorrow.
