Let me just say that I am so excited have finished my very first day of the AcneNoMore program. It seems like a long time coming seeing as how I bought the book a little less than a year ago. I know that the program will be tough but I'm up for the challenge and more than ready for clear skin.
Starting in the morning, I woke up after nine hours of sleep but the last two of those hours were really restless. Next I went on a 20 minute power walk where I was motivated to move even faster thanks to the killer deer flies. Thanks deer flies. After the run I continued with a 20 minute workout where I practiced my splits, stretched and did some other cardio exercises.
The I took my supplement... There are a lot of them which are all listed in my last post. The pills themselves weren't very hard to swallow but I almost didn't have the stamina to take all of them in a row. They did give me a little stomach ache but I seem to always get that with new supplements in the first few days. However the two liquid supplement were the worst of all and I had to drink tons of water after just to try and get the taste out of my mouth.
Next, after that workout I was staving so I had fruit cereal for breakfast. The cereal had almond milk with mango and banana. The cereal was okay and surprisingly filling but a little boring. After that I did the AcneNoMore morning protocol which I will be explaining in a future post. But essentially I included steaming your face, cleansing, a mask, exfoliating, spot treatments and moisturizing. This actually did take me the better part of an hour but I think most of that was due to making the mask, exfoliator and spot treatments. The skin products surprisingly didn't irritate my skin at all and my skin felt moisturized but still not greasy.
Then I had a peach for a snack and a raw burrito which was a piece of lettuce instead of a wrap and zucchini, cucumber, carrots and tomato. The burrito was actually pretty good besides the fact that it fell apart after the second bite. Next I had a apple for another snack and then a "Thai" pasta which was not Thai or pasta at all. The salad was just lettuce, zucchini peeled length wise, tomato, avocado and carrots with a balsamic dressing which was really good and filling.
Just so you guys know I have very oily skin, like greaseball oily. Not kidding here. However, by the end of the day my skin was oily but definitely not as oily as it usually was and it only really started getting oily by the last three hours. Obviously known of my zits had healed by the end of the night but my skin was hardly red which was good. Then I did the evening protocol which was somewhat similar to the morning routine. However I did had to put vitamin E oil on my face which I was a little skeptical about.
Finally at the end of the night I tired to meditate but I only lasted two minutes. All in all I was very pleased with the day and I tried to stress as little as possible.
And of course,
Good Luck
