Did You Do A Detox AND THEN GAIN IT BACK?
Good Morning,
If you are like everyone else in the Carolina’s Florence has your undivided attention.
As such I am going to keep this week’s accountability check in short.
Have you scheduled or completed your 24 hour veggie and fruit detox yet? If not, do it. If you have, congrats you are rock star ;-). Chances are you lighter, less bloated, and full of energy ;-)!
Now…be aware!!!
It is not uncommon for people, even myself to “subconsciously” eat more the day before or after. Right, wrong or indifferent it’s what we do. Try not to do that ;-). I know, profound advice ;-). Try to make the day before or after normal and not wreck the caloric deficit you created. Don’t you want the biggest bang for your hard work?
Now that you are aware, you can stop binging before or after the detox and reap even greater results ;-).
Go be awesome!
KELLEN LAKE – Be safe!
PS – I am down 3 lbs since Monday on Day 3 of my Get Fit For Beach Program, 4.5 weeks left 😉
PSSS – Just Tell Me What To Eat…Give me a Meal Plan below ;-).
This will work, however, if you aren’t losing weight it is likely because you are eating to much. If that is you, eat ¼ to ⅓ less than shown.
