Day 1

Posted under Raw Fitness Challenge by Scott

Today was a totally fun and busy day.  Lemon water in the morning makes me not so hungry — I didn’t really eat until after I went to the gym.

Speaking of, the gym was super fun — it has been way too long since I have been there (last summer?) I listened to my PodFitness routine and let me tell you, that is one of the best products ever!  It was so much fun, they give you encouragement, reminders, tell you when it is time to change your pace, etc.  All to your own music!

On the menu:

• 1 qt water + 1 lemon + 1T MSM
• 2 HUGE gala apples + 2 dates, diced and yummy
• 4 oz of Wicked Chili Almonds — not really so wicked, but very yummy

At the gym:

• 35 minutes of  cardio on the elliptical

The evening was topped off with ‘classe de espanol con Maru’.  I was worried because last week we were told that there would be birthday cake (for me and the other Pisces student) and some Jewish baked goods/sweets (in honor of the holiday that just passed).  If someone makes me a cake for me I will feel compelled to eat it… but the good news is there was no food there, it seems everyone forgot and that was much to my benefit!

By the time I got home (10pm) I was exhausted and had a really bad detox headache.  I think my water intake was too low for the day and that contributed to it as well.   How do I know it was detox headache?  Well, as Matt Monarch says, do a colonic and you will feel better.  I didn’t do a colonic but I did have a major bowel movement and when it was all said and done, I felt worlds better.
