Here Goes Nothin'!

Day 1 - Advocare Herbal Cleanse

I have read horrible things about the fiber drink - one reviewer said she "threw up in her mouth and then drank that".  Oh boy - could I do this?  I have a MAJOR issue with textures.  Mindy told me it was like a pulpy orange juice.  Her review was much more ON.  Thankfully, she gave me a few tips as well.  ADD SPARK, and drink it through a straw.  Another review said to drink it cold.  Ok, I can do this!  So I mixed it with 8 oz of water and spark.  Shook it up and poured it over LOTS of ice.  Drank it through a straw - and I drank it fast, I didn't let it sit.  No problem.  All I could taste was the mandarin orange spark and pulp.  I had absolutely no trouble getting it down.  I can totally do this!  The fiber drink will be the easy part - the clean eating. . . . that's another story.  I feel like I went on a total binge this weekend trying to get in my favorites before I can't have them.  I think that was the wrong approach, but whatever.  There is so much mental here - I have been preparing for this for a week now, and planning.  I'm going to do this and I'm going to do it well!

I took my official measurements and weigh in this morning.  I will also take a "before" picture after a little while.  I'm not going to share my measurements and weigh in until after I am finished with 10 days.  I will update tomorrow with how day 1 went.  (Because I'm sure anyone is reading this blog ;))
