Detox - Day 1

Today I started a 7 day detox. I know the word "detox" sounds like a horrible experience, but it is not bad and after the 7 days you feel refreshed and great! The rules for detox are:
1) It is recommended to stick to 3 servings of fruits a day and as many veggies a day that you want. You may add a little protein throughout the day if you can't handle just fruits and veggies. I have a hard time going without protein, but if you can do it, it is a nice break on your liver.
2) You should not drink anything except water or hot tea (no lipton tea with sweetner, or "sugar-free" tea). That's right - no alcohol! It is recommended that you drink hot water with the juice of half a lemon in the morning to cleanse your gallbladder.
3) No dairy during the 7 days (I use egg white omlettes for breakfast every other day).
4) No complex carbs like beans, sweet potatoes, corn, potatoes, grains (be careful when you are making soup to get the gluten-free, msg free chicken, veggie or beef broth)
5) Make sure you eat often and eat as many veggies as you want.
 Here is what I ate on my first day of detox:
Breakfast: 2 scrambled eggs with sauteed onions, mushrooms, tomatoes, and zuchinni. I used a little grape seed oil to sautee the veggies. Warm water with lemon.
Snack: 1 Honey Crisp Apple and hot green tea.
Lunch: Huge spinach salad with carrots, red peppers, grape tomatoes, zucchinni and I mixed extra virgin olive oil with balsamic vinegar for dressing.
Snack: Cut up red and yellow peppers.
Dinner: Eggplant pasta (using eggplant as the noodles), with sundried tomatoes, broccoli, onions, garlic, mushrooms and fresh chopped basil. I cooked the veggies in grape seed oil and added a little cayenne pepper and Italian seasoning to taste.
Snack: 1 cup of all natural, no sugar added applesauce heated up in the microwave with cinnamon on top.

I also use a very gentle colon cleanse that has fiber powder and herbal pills with millions of good bacteria in them to help clean out your colon. Don't worry, this shouldn't have you running to the bathroom every 2 minutes. If you have never done a colon cleanse before, you may want to consider it...just think about what residue may be inside of you from all the years of eating junky food? Below is the link to the one I use.
