Psychotic Much?

So I was all excited to start this Shakeology Cleanse...to see what it was all about. The cleanse was pretty low calorie, only three days, three shakes a day, two fruit snacks, a big salad and four oz of lean white meat protein. Rid your body of toxins, jumpt start a new fitness program, bust through a plateau, etc etc. I'm not knocking the cleanse although I haven't been a fan of other cleanses. The only cleanse that I've been a fan of is Lacy Lebeau's Diet Cleanse tea which is all natural senna based. And it uh, works. (Edited to add that the Shakeology cleanse is not designed so much to lose weight, but that is an attractive side effect.)

So back to the Shakeology Cleanse. Sunday is my rest day, I'm tapering...I'll give it a try! Half a day is all it took for me to say, screw the cleanse! I swear, deplete me of carbs and I'm likely to murder someone. I just do not, lemme repeat I just DO NOT get how people can go carbless. What's it called...ketosis? And that's a good thing for those on Atkins? I think it's more like kepunchyouinthethroatis. I actually growled at my husband that I was going to eat carbs and there was no way he was going to stop me. Who am I kidding though and why the heck WOULD he have even tried?! I got every green light and thumbs up possible. Such a happier camper now. Both of us. loL! So I guess I'm saying that the cleanse would be great for anyone but me. I mean, for someone not sensitive to carb depletion? I don't know...I'd be interested to hear from others that have done the cleanse. Everything I found on the web was very positive about it so either I'm the only one being honest or I'm an anomoly. ha!

My nutrition plan for the week is still going to include my Shakeology...but just one shake a day for lunch. I'm already pleased with how great it tastes and how much healthier it is for me than the muscle milk I was drinking. In a nutshell, Shakeology GREAT, Shakeology cleanse for Amee, NOT GREAT! I have it coming on home direct which means free shipping and I don't have to remember to order it. Which is cool since when my Muscle Milk would get low, and when I'd remember to order it, I would get all panicky as the tub would get low and my order hadn't arrived. Greenberry is next month since chose to alternate the flavors.

I'm excited for Monday...bring it on! Look for Monday's focus tomorrow. I will be adding on. It's hard to believe in two short weeks, I've come this far in all three areas of my life. Trippin to the beat of my own sunshine....
