Day 1-Cleansing & Vegan Living

Today is my first day of my 21-Day Cleanse with Moira Nordholt-the Feel Good Guru.

I also have a ‘buddy’, Sandi Lei from Connecticut. Sandi is traveling her own creative journey to self-discovery and I have discovered that we have a lot in common. She was the first person to email me to volunteer to be my ‘buddy’after I posted “I am a Vegan” last week and I am very happy she did. You can check out Sandi’s website at – http://sandilei.blogspot.com.

My first day went fairly well.

I am experiencing a caffeine withdrawal headache, and I know it will only get worse before it gets better. By day three or four I hope it will be gone. I am trying to drink lots of water and had plenty of fruits and veggies today.

The main things I am doing are:

  • Avoiding alcohol (easy)
  • Avoiding caffeine (hard)
  • Drinking lots of water
  • Eating plenty of fresh, organic fruits and vegetables
  • Enjoying a variety of beans, grains and rice
  • Avoiding flour products, including bread and pasta(very hard)
  • No processed foods of any kind-no snacks, soda, candy, canned or boxed foods

That’s all. It’s that easy, and that hard. Wish me luck. I’ll be posting an update every few days.

    I am inspired and will be watching your progress. I’ve often thought of doing a cleanse but haven’t ever tried yet.
