Day 3 : 30 Raw Food Challenge

Well it is the morning of Day 3 and this is the first time I could write a new post! Day 1 was very hard, I was craving  a’lot of cooked food today at work, especially.  After work on Day 1 I came home and instantly my muscles started to get achy all over! Then I started getting cold sweats, nausea, almost to the point where I would feeling like fainting if I stood up! I felt very weak, I had a very dull headache, which is still here and my stomach hurt really bad! On Day 1 what I had to eat was, all liquid, I juiced 3 oranges and a mango for my morning and then made a green smoothie for throughout the day! It was really filling, I was never hungry!

Day 2 my body reactions were still there except the fainting part, my muscles were still very achy, my headache still there and my stomach still hurt really bad.  The hard thing was trying to figure out what I could take to relieve the pain but was still raw!  I never did take any medications (which was hard)! I had fresh squeezed grapefruit juice, some coconut water and I had more solid food today, 2 bananas and 5 dates. By the end of the day I started to get rid of the achy muscles and my stomach started to calm down a bit.

For today, Day 3, the dull headache is still there! My stomach, every once and awhile, still has a bit of pain, but I feel way better then I did the last couple days!! Today, I have a bit solid and some liquid, I made some beet juice with carrots, limes and beets.  I brought some zucchini, carrots and a orange to have at work.  For breakfast I had 5 dates and some coconut water.  I am going to try to hit the gym today after work as well, something light but just to get there! It was extremely hard to make it through that detox, I have done a few cleanses before and never had that reaction from them!! But I made it! So we will see how today finishes and the rest of the week!
