Day 4

Day 4: (December 3rd)
My energy levels are higher than expected today!  I stayed up later than I should have last night, so I had expected to be wiped with the cleanse and lack of sleep.   I was feeling a bit envious of my family this morning as they were all making Isalean shakes with berries and fruit and bananas, and I can't wait until tomorrow when I can have one (without the bananas for this month of course).   I would be lying if I said I didn't miss eating food today, but it isn't really hunger.  Maybe it is the taste or the texture I am missing.  The good news is that tomorrow I will be back on shakes and real food again for another week and then I will only have a cleanse day once a week.  

I went to the gym this morning, and did a high incline with fast walking pace for 25 minutes.  That was recommended to me by the trainer at the gym as a way to burn fat without losing muscle.  During the walk I had an energenix which made a delicious lemonade like drink.   I felt fine the entire time, and didn't really feel wiped.

Given that Christmas is on its way, I am sure I will be eating more than enough food to make up for anything I am missing now.   I am hoping that once it is over, I can add in a cleanse day here and there and I will be back to where I was.  I won't have to worry about spending the entire winter trying to lose the Christmas weight.  For me it would usually be April/May by the time I was back to my pre-Christmas weight.
