AcneNoMore Program Day 11

Yay!! Juicing's over. Like I said in my last post, it really wasn't that bad but it is nice to have solid food again. And yesterday was also my birthday so it was nice not to have just juice on my birthday. But nonetheless there still wasn't any birthday cake or ice cream. I know it's a sacrifice now so I'm just hoping its all worth it in the end. 

When just coming off a juicing you want to pace yourself and eat foods that are easy to digest. For example, eat fruit high in water instead of a steak. For breakfast I had a smoothie. Starting of with a smoothie is a great breakfast for after a juice fast because they are more filling and thick but still not a solid food and therefore easy to digest. Then I had a peach for a snack and a peach and strawberry spinach salad. The book also recommends eating a lot of salads too during this point. Also, the two days after the juicing are detox diet where you don't eat any fish, meat, dairy, grains or eggs. So basically your eating raw fruits and vegetables. 

After that I had celery and peanut butter for a snack. And followed is dinner where I had a wrap made of romaine lettuce with tomato, cucumber and carrots. During detox days of the program you are also supposed to take an evening Epsom salt bath. But to be honest I didn't have one because I justified my laziness with the fact that I was my birthday. Also, even though it was my birthday it was a very stressful day. Lets just say it wasn't the birthday I though I was going to have. Anyways, I'm looking forward to my skin getting clearer and reaping the rewards of this program.

To anyone who has had a sucky birthday, 

Good Luck
