Almost done

Just a little update on my Detox program.

Today is the 7th day into the program also the last day, is an achievement I must say to myself. It takes a certain degree of will power, self determination, and supports from my love ones for me to complete this program.

During the whole program, the hardest challenge that I experienced was on the 6th day, that's yesterday, I felt the craving for a nice meal is at the strongest after 6 days without the usual solid meals. Making thing worst was knowing that my colleagues went for a Tom Yam lunch treat which is one of my all time favourite food. My mum boiled a nice pot of pickled vegetable soup for dinner which really made me drooling while I was only feeding myself with a bowl of tasteless soft boiled mixed vegetable (should have steamed to retain the taste instead of boiling them. I was starving couldn't wait to eat.) Later at night SIL brought in banana fritters and black forest cake for us, my girls whacked the banana fritters and I have to abstain from eating any, the cake is now frozen in the fridge.

To open fast tonite, I am cooking some multi-grain porridge in the slow cooker as dinner, prefer taking soft food for a start and slowly adjust back to normal meal.

At this point in time, I am very much craving for something salty.......

2nd day of DRP (Detoxification & Rejuvenation Program)

The 2nd day into my Detoxification & Rejuvenation Program (DRP) yesterday, We went for a badminton session in the morning to sweat out. I hardly spare time to do any exercises for a long time, have been busy with work, home chaos and other activities as excuses for that matter.

On the first day of my detox program, I had my blood sugar tested at home, the reading was 6, it is on the high side considering I haven't even taken my breakfast yet, I only had my cleansing drink (1 tablespoon each of Apple cider vinegar, honey and herbal cleanse powder) prior before that. Imagine my sugar level could be much higher after breakfast at normal days which I usually have meehoon, noodles, bread or cakes, and have one or two packets of 3 in 1 drinks during the day.

I am on purely vegetable and fruits diet in this program, hopefully this will bring my blood sugar down to the ideal level. Though I am on a special diet, my family meals are not neglected, I still cook normal meal for them and I bring my own steamed vegetable with me when we go out for meals so they are not affected in any way.

Steamed fish and
meat, potatoes and carrots for my family
steamed potatoes, carrot and vegetable for me
and have bananas in between meals

Detoxification and Rejuvenation Programme (DRP)

I am into Day 5 of the 7 days Detoxification and Rejuvenation Programme (DRP), I am amazed how this programme works, I already felt the cleansing taking effect on the 4th day, I guess the cleansing effect could have been faster if I were to do 2 coffee enemas a day as recommended. I have been on 1 coffee enema a day due to time constraint.

This programme is easier to follow than I first thought especially on the coffee enema part which I did not feel at ease with initially. I finally got myself comfortable doing it in the bedroom than in the bathroom before taking my shower and dinner. I did the coffee enemas in the bathroom for the first 3 days in the morning which I find very uncomfortable lying on the bathroom floor for one thing and also the need for the morning rush has deterred me from carrying out a proper coffee enema which usually takes up to 15 minutes at least.

I am a bit tired today could be because I have had very little solid today than the previous 4 days. Got bored with the hippocrates' soup since the 3rd day and the urge of eating solid is not there anymore, moreover, my stomach is filled with cleansing drink, tissue building drink, health drink and juices most of the time.

There will be 2 more days to go to complete the whole programme and I am happy with my progress so far.

I will post more about it in my coming posts.
