Day 15 (LAST DAY)

It's finally over!

During the last 15 days I've learned and been through so much! I've felt very home sick and have been craving British food. I've had moments of feeling absolutely fantastic and those where I felt utterly terrible. I've learned so many things about living a healthy lifestyle and eating healthy food and how essential these things are for leading a vibrant life. As well as that I've discovered the importance of sourcing my food ethically and found out about some fantastic companies who are working towards great things and have wonderful products. And of course ... I lost a stone in the first week. I'm excited to see what results I will see on the scales tomorrow.

We still have so much food left over, since going organic we got so much more juice from the vegetables. So we are going to think up some highly veggie recipes before we leave this place. It was great throughout today knowing that with each juice I was getting so much closer to the end. One of my New Years resolutions was to be more adventurous and funnily enough, doing this has lead me down a much more adventurous path. Instead of going to the same old chains of super markets and restaurants, making the same meals over and over. I will need to discover and create new things to keep with my healthy new lifestyle!

THE REBOOT PART IS OVER! I will fill you in with my results tomorrow.

Day 9 ( fourth day without food )

Another terrible night. I've had more nightmares and I'm beginning to feel really fed up. I am so exhausted, I just want ordinary sleep. I started to research the issue and there wasn't an awful lot of food detoxing and nightmares but, there was plenty of information on people who were detoxing from alcohol and drugs. When I read people's stories about how they had had horrid nightmares whilst they were going cold turkey, they oddly resembled the kind of dreams that I'd been having. The main theme being that people you care about dying, it all taking place in the darkness. Which I found very funny but it does make sense. I've stopped having, coffee, cheese, cream, wheat, sugar, meat. That's a lot of products that I'm giving up so, obviously my body is going to go, WHAAAAT!? I just hope my body gets over it soon. I really want to sleep. Today I've felt like crap, really light headed with a very heavy body.

I'm fed up of juice. Whenever I think of drinking another one I feel sick. I crave onions and saltiness. Whenever I get the chance - which is a lot - I look at recipes and photographs of things I long to eat. I want to eat something NOW. All I've had today is: carrot, apple and lemon juice; green lemonade; green citrus and purple passion. It sounds like a lot and a lot of ingredients went into it but I'm definitely NOT satisfied. I was thinking at first when I started doing this thing that I would give up meat for a while but I don't think I can do it. I'll cut down but I won't cut it out. I was thinking of trying out vegan but, then there is the paleo way as well. I have a feeling paleo will suit me better. I will post more information about the two in the next few days. 

My order from Organic Collective arrived today! 5 boxes of fruit and vegetables. Luckily we have two fridges here otherwise we'd be stuffed! The order came to over $300 (£160) :/ but, if we'd gone through Coles again it would have cost $480 (£256) and we wouldn't have even been getting organic produce from there. Even though the delivery guy wasn't too friendly, I felt good to be supporting this company over Coles. 

I know I have been complaining a lot in this post but I think I'm going to blame it on the toxins. I know this is worthwhile especially after yesterday's results. My legs are slimmer, my bum is smaller and the cellulite is almost completely gone! My tummy is flatter also. The top half of my body is actually revealing a womanly figure instead of a misshapen piece of lard. I can taste and smell so much more strongly - it's a shame I can't eat! When I'm not feeling crap, I have a very clear mind. 

Can't wait for day ten...
