Update on Maria's Cleanse

So I completely blew it on keeping you posted about the next phase... but I will update you now!

After I finished the cleanse, I started on the next "phase" and then in the following weeks I spent some time at home and also drove to Colorado with my bitch/sister. Let me tell you, the highway is no place to follow any sort of food regimen. Unless that regimen is big macs and chalupas. When I got back I decided to do the cleanse again, except I didn't have any artichokes. And I drank coffee. And I totally cheated like every day. But that's okay. After that I followed the next "phase" and have been really quite good about it since. Better yet, I have been going to the gym a lot! I also have been drinking the lemon water and green tea every day, both of which are remarkably refreshing. I drink the lemon water with a straw and sort of drink it in the back of my mouth so I don't ruin my teeth. I am not following the day-to-day menu because it's just too hard to keep up with it, but I have been taking a lot of recipes from the O2 book, many of which are really delicious.

So, I'm still at it, I am eating really well overall, and I am exercising a lot. Let me know if you have any questions about the cleanse!
