The Cleaner

I can't believe that it's been two and a half weeks almost since I've blogged.


The journey has actually been an interesting one-- rounding the corner into two months of being wheat-free. I actually did a cleanse two weeks ago (w/o 7/7 - 7/14) using The Cleaner 7-day detox. Can I just say, it was nothing short of amazing.

I carefully read the reviews and spoke with different people who actually used the product. I got the fact that everyone's body is different-- but I was actually surprised how well mine took to it. Again, it was definitely to help get a jump on being wheat-free and clearing out the aftermath of having horrible wheat withdrawls the first two weeks in.

In that 7 days, I lost about 7 lbs. I know some of it was post-4th-of-July water/meat weight, but it was still nice to bounce back from splurging that weekend in just a few days rather than the rest of the month. I could really tell that everything was getting cleaned out and I really felt alot lighter after the regimen was done. During the week I ate mostly salads or soup; if I ate meat it was fish/chicken/turkey in small quantities. Lots and lots of veggies, fruit and water. I was taking a probiotic, too, to help things stay regular and replace anything that could have been lost in the mass exodus. I totally recommend the cleanse to anyone who wants a jump-start to a healthy eating/diet regimen to help motivate you and give you a blank slate. It was defintely like taking everything out of the room first before shampooing the carpet/wiping down windows and walls and placing everything (neatly) back inside!
