Three day Shakeology cleanse
So, Friday began a new adventure for me.  I started the three day Shakeology cleanse.  It was an interesting experience...I don't really feel motivated to do it again.  I was expecting some major die off, but I ended up being really regular.  I just had to pee A LOT. 
Day 1:  Started the morning off with Yogi Detox tea.  After P90X, I had a shake.  Tropical Strawberry is not the best flavor for the cleanse, but it's what I had.  A couple hours later, I had a piece of fruit.  Later, another shake and tea.  Later on, another shake.  Finally, dinner with a 3 cups spinach, 3 cups lettuce, 4 oz. turkey, and two tbsp. of non-dairy dressing.  I was really hungry in between shakes and dinner.  Others have said they didn't have cravings and didn't feel hungry, but I experienced a lot!  
Day 2:  Same eating routine, although I cleaned the house after my workout.  I think I overdid it a bit this day.  I was pretty tired.
Day 3:  Pretty much the same routine, except I didn't workout.  Today (Sunday) is my weekly rest day.  Still pretty hungry throughout the day and after the final salad. 
Even though I dropped four pounds by Day 2, I still don't know that doing this for three days has been worth it.  I guess I'll know tomorrow morning when I weigh myself.  Most people seem to have major bowl movements during the cleanse, but as I already said, I was normal.  I am a little disapointed, since I was hoping to really clean myself out and truly experience a cleanse.  My husband suggested that it may not be cleaning me out since my diet was already fairly clean.  However, I had just enjoyed Thanksgiving goodies as well as my birthday, which included cupcakes!  
Major problem for me:  HUNGER.  I may try this again in the future after the holidays are over, but I can't say that I will for sure. 
We'll see what tomorrow brings!
