Advocare 10 Day Cleanse

     Well... my brother put me on this herbal cleanse, actually it's a challenge on top of the cleanse... who loses the most body mass whatever whatever I don't know all the technical jargon. I feel funny. Today is DAY 3 -- my meals are light and small and I've been getting on my exercise bike for 20 minutes 3 times a day... I feel good but my body feels funny. I plan to stick close to this meal plan after the cleanse is over, I'm going to ad milk though because I love my Special K cereal!! On the cleanse I cannot have any dairy products... I don't mind, because I know I can have my cereal after the challenge is over lol.
     So my breakfast is a meal replacement shake. My lunches consist of half a cup of fruit and a hard boiled egg, OR 2 hard boiled eggs, OR a can of plain tuna in water. dinners consist of a piece of boneless skinless chicken breast and a 1/2 a steam fresh bag of veggies OR a cup of brown rice OR OR a piece of fish with the same options. I'm enjoying it so far. I couldn't continue this every single day after the cleanse because I would get bored. But I have been researching recipes to keep the simple items and give them a little extra flavor but not add all the sugars or salts or extra unhealthy crap -- VERY EXCITED!!
     Also, I am really enjoying these Spark drinks -- equivalent to a cup of coffee!! TASTE AWESOME!! I have had the fruit punch and the citrus. It is an 8 ounce cup of water with the powder mix and boom, I'm wired for like 5 or 6 hours!! I'm planning on getting a tub of it when this one runs out. They really have some awesome products!! I can't wait to see the results from this cleanse and then continue with this new menu plan and work out!
     I am still working on quitting smoking, but I only had 2 yesterday and none today, and I haven't gone and bought a new pack either. I am trying to stay busy so I just forget about the cravings all together. It's really only boredom that gets me smoking, so I am working on filling all of my time. I started a new book, this one is about youth ministry since I started helping with the youth group at church. Hopefully this book will guide me and give me some good direction with these kids. I am still doing my 30 days of prayer thing, and I am going to continue until I have it memorized (that's the plan anyway.) I am just so excited!
     God is really working in my heart! I am expanding my horizons! I want to bring others to Christ! I want to bring young teens and children to Christ! I want EVERYONE to come to Christ!!!  ---it is super hard to contain the excitement and NOT shout out seeing as how I am at my dad's and I don't want to disturb anyone lol.
   
     I love my dads new house! I have been helping him get it organized and get ready for an estate sale (the items left with the house when he bought it.) Today I stained and clear coated the trim for his living room, in another hour I am going to be doing the final coat of that. I have no clue what he is going to have me do tomorrow, but I'm sure it'll be fun! The other day we hauled a bunch of wood out to the back to burn, then I helped him clean out his little gardener's shed so he could store the wood he is able to burn inSIDE the house, in there. We made a little space in the basement, but not a whole lot.
     Plus, he gave me a BUNCH of National Geographic's... I am obsessed with it! I love reading those! I will never get bored NOW!! wanna know WHY>>>>>>>> Now I have 1984 through 2000!!! Plus I have been getting them since 2011. AWESOME!!! I cannot wait til I have a house or a place of my own where I am able to fill all my book shelves!! It'd be nice to collect every single issue EVER, but I won't hold my breath on that one haha. I am very happy with what I have. I still have a TON of other books I need to read. I plan to read all the novels and then sell them... well... besides my antique books and any collector books I have. I am not going to part with my National Geographic's though.

VERY EXCITED ABOUT LIFE!!
