I got up around 7:30 am and drank 8-10 oz. of distilled water. I poured more water into my cup and took 5 of the Blood & Lymphatic formula capsules. I then drank some of my smoothie that I had previously made which consisted of a lemon, lime, grapefruit, some pineapples, an apple, flax seeds, about 2 tbsp. of turmeric and water. The contents of this smoothie are supposed to be good for inflammation. Afterwards, I ate an apple, pecans and a papaya, banana, strawberry and hemp seed powder smoothie. Hemp seeds are supposed to be good for protein.
I'm feeling eh, but again, my period is on - so.... humped over (due to pain/discomfort) and exhausted.
Started reading "Whatz In Your Womb?" by Ma'at em Maakheru to help me release some of the emotional hurts built up over the years.
Had some hot raspberry tea.
I took a bath to get relief from pain/exhaustion. Already had sea salts so I put that in along with about 40 drops of tea tree essentioal oil. Already had this oil and others (lavender, basil, rosemary, etc.) for my natural hair concoctions. The tea tree oil (cleansing) and sea salt bath was great! - so relaxing.
Around 10:30 am drank more distilled water and took the 5 Cardiovascular formula capsules. Continued more reading and ate some sliced up apples and mangoes and pecans. Had some hot raspberry tea.
Later, had more of the lemon/lime/grapefruit smoothie.
Around 12:30 pm I had the 3rd formula - 5 Liver, Gallbladder & Spleen formula capsules. I also had my lunch between 12:30 and 1:00 pm - a salad with romaine, cucumbers, tomatoes, red peppers, yellow peppers, orange peppers (all bell peppers), broccoli, and that's it I think. I drank distilled water.
I know I'm supposed to be detoxing, but my period pain is getting to me and I'm tired, so I took some pain killers and went to sleep.
I didn't go to sleep; instead, I drew another hot bath but this time with sea salt and lavender essential oil. Afterwards at around 2:38 pm, I had the 4th formula - 5 Lung & Respiratory formula capsules.
I ate some pineapple, pecans and cashews, got in bed, watched TV and the TV watched me as I fell asleep. When I woke up it was around 5:01 pm and the phone was ringing. It was my mother-in-law who I talked to for a little bit. After our conversation, I started watching TV again and got caught up. I took the 5th formula -5 Kidneys, Bladder & Adrenals capsules and ate more pineapples, pecans and cashews around 5:48 pm.
The hubster came in talking about "I brought some cupcakes home." I said "Man, I'm on my detox; I'm only eating raw vegetables and fruit." He said "Oh."
I ate the other half of the salad from lunch and more pecans and cashews. Hubby had gone out to the store and came back and threw a Twix candy bar on the bed, "Here you go!"
Me: Didn't I tell you I'm only eating fruits and vegetables? I can't have a Twix.
He: Oh, yeah. Well, I'll eat it.
Me: That was your plan all along.
At 7:30ish pm, I had formula #6 - 5 Colon & Digestive Tract capsules and more pecans and cashews.
Finished off lemon/lime/grapefruit smoothie - 8:49pm. (This smoothie was made with spring water at the time, but I wasn't going to throw it out based on the wrong type of water.)
I took the last formula around bedtime - #7 Carbon/Activated Charcoal.
My thoughts: I'm eating all throughout the day and popping capsules, but I know it's going to clean out my systems. I'm so glad I already had everything cut up. Having to deal with my period was an added challenge in doing my first day of the detox, but since today was the 2nd day of my period, tomorrow should go smoother and I should be able to focus better on the detox.
In one of my earlier posts I mentioned how much I love food. I have to learn to love me more and focus on my wellbeing.
Excuse any grammar or spelling errors, but you'll be all right. Detox posts to follow will focus on my food intake and any thoughts or "revelations" as I'm going through this process.
