Dual-Action Diet Cleanse: Day 4
Today is day 4 of my Dual-action Diet Cleanse
Day One:
Changes: I didn’t notice any changes that day, but after I took my cleanse pill that night, I had a bad headache. I can’t tell you if that headache was from that pill or if it was just a coincidence.
Water: I had about 70 oz. of water Saturday. I was doing good!
Exercise: Other than the usual housework, my exercise consisted of a walk/hike with my Mother-in-law and my girls. We walked up the big hill behind my house and then down again. It got pretty steep in some areas, so we had to walk down sideways.
Day Two:
Changes: Definitely had more energy today. I also got another headache around the time I took the cleanse pill before bed. It was followed by some really bad acid reflux. I get acid reflux a lot, but it’s never this bad. I was desperate for tums this time. Thank God I found some!
Water: I had all my water again for the day. I used to drink a lot of water, but recently I’ve stopped. That may have to do with some of my issues. Lack of water.
Exercise: Just a lot of up and down the stairs here at home. Either because of the girls, or to put away laundry. Regular house work. I am hoping to start up my yoga again. Leena loves it!
Day Three:
Changes: I had less energy today. I also didn’t go to bed till after midnight, so that may have played a role.. No weight loss yet. I haven’t measured myself either.
When I took my cleanse pill tonight, it got stuck in my throat. I ended up getting it down with a piece of toast and some hot tea. It hurt for a little while. I felt like I should go to the bathroom and throw up, but there was no gag reflex so it felt weird and made me feel worse.
Water: Drank my 64 oz (and more) today.
Exercise: Again, regular housework. I walked a lot around at Target too. I think I walked around for an hour.
Day Four:
Changes: Today I think I’m getting a little constipated. I haven’t gone for a while. I don’t think I went yesterday either. I have been peeing up a storm though! The headaches haven’t come back, but that heartburn/acid reflux is going to be the death of me. It hurts so badly when I get it.
I also found out today that I was supposed to be taking 4 cleanse pills, NOT one. Darn it all. So I took the 4 tonight. I hope that doesn’t send me to the ER in search of an enima!!! If I’m not going now, when I’ve only been taking one for 3 days, imagine how I’m going to feel tomorrow after taking 4!!
Water: I had my fill of water today.
Exercise: I walked around Walmart today returning and replacing some clothes that were too small for Leena. I also spent all day going through their clothes and putting the ones that fit away and the others in the donate pile.
So, there you have it! 4 days of cleansing and metabolizing. What will the next 24 bring???
I will try and start my yoga tomorrow. I still have so much cleaning and organizing to do!
