So we made it past 2 weeks!!!! Only 4 and a 1/2 more days left of our quantum wellness cleanse! I am so proud of us, Erich especially, he has been so very supportive, particularly on days when I've been dying to quit and have just one, or twenty, bars of chocolate. It really has been such a mental challenge for me. Now I totally laid out the reasons behind wanting to do this and those are still valid but after reading more about it I decided that I also wanted things like, more energy, clearer skin, and some weight loss. But last week as I was looking in the mirror at my burgeoning breakout and feeling VERY tired and bloated I decided that maybe this just wasn't worth it. Erich talked me down and I came to find out that those symptoms had nothing to do with my cleanse but for, ahem, another reason. Another reason that can also be blamed for my raging bitch behavior Thursday and Friday. . . .sorry kids :)
This week though, I'm feeling much better! I am feeling more energetic and focused, clearer skin, and I think I've lost about 6 pounds. We even spent the weekend at a house on Canyon Ferry with some friends and were able to stick with it! This weekend we are going camping so our last 2 days will certainly be challenging . . .at least from a planning perspective for me and the food prep. . . but I'm really looking forward to it. So that's the update on us. . . .tough but very do-able (maybe not on a tight budget), and totally worth it.
