Day 1

So today started off crappy.  I NEVER knew how much junk I ate until yesterday!  I'm not saying I didn't enjoy Thanksgiving dinner with the family, because I REALLY did!  My family is great, and the food was good ol' fashioned southern food!  Turkey, ham, dressing, greens, potato salad, mac and chees, and rolls and cornbread!  Oh the cornbread!  I drank water hoping to flush the toxins from the junk, but apparently not enough of it to counteract the salt put into all of that deliciousness!

I woke up this morning with a full blown migraine, and today was the first of the 3 days! :(  Well, I'm committed, so let's do this!  I got up, had my water, drank my shakeology and had 2 mango spears, so far, so good...... Fast forward about 30 minutes to when the nausea hits hardcore I am certain I literally turned as green as my emerald coach bracelet.....

I felt just plain awful all day, and I know that it's not refresh related, it's completely all the junk from yesterday.  I drank my tea, I really like tea anyway, but 3 cups a day is probably a bit too much for me, we will see.  I'm going to have my 3rd cup after I finish this blog, but I'm still full from the asparagus and broth.

I read over the facebook group with Carl Daikeler about the fiber sweep and I put some lemon in it to make it easier to gulp down.  I read the reviews, I know it's going to be nasty and gelatinous.  I guess I must have downed it very quickly because it didn't feel or taste like it had thickened to me, but what do I know, this is only day 1 and maybe that's how it's supposed to be.  My 7 year old wanted to taste it....  I don't know about her sometimes, but I had already finished it, so she couldn't have any anyhow.

I had my lunch shortly afterwards, I really tried spacing the food and shakes out so I could get through the day.  I guess I did good because it's a quarter after 6, and bedtime is in 45 minutes (2 a.m. wakeup) and like I said, I'm still full from dinner which was at 4.

The fiber sweep has only just started working, so I'm guessing it's going to be a long night, and I'm not looking forward to that at all.  Wish me luck, tomorrow's day 2 and I've got work and shopping afterwards, that will be my most difficult day.
