All in all the cleanse is going really well. The side effects I've had (mainly exhaustion) have been minimal so I can't complain about those. Well, the first day I thought I smelled and I was sure I'd stink for the duration of the cleanse. Luckily, the thought of smelling has subsided.
The one complaint I have is that I miss cheese. Many of the recipes I have relied on during SB have cheese. Stuffed mushrooms, pesto chicken, even a little feta in my salads. I really, really, really miss cheese.
But only another week and I'll hopefully be able to have it back.
I'll update my weight on Tuesday and maybe my measurements, too. All in all things are going well. I'm still eating well and exercising about 4-5 times a week. One of these days I'll update the blog to make things easier to find/follow.
Oh! I also wanted to see if any of you readers had any questions for me about SB, the exercises that I do, Dr. W, the babies, whatever. Just ask your question in a comment and I'll answer it!

Another 3lbs down...
Ladies and Gentlemen! That's 9.8lbs in 2 weeks. Isn't that amazing? I am so proud of myself. And that feels amazing.
I met with Dr. W today. She is equally as impressed with my weightloss. I told her I feel so much better physically and emotionally that it's just... unreal.
The plan from here to my next appointment (Feb. 1st) is to continue SB. This week, she said, I can be flexible with the diet. But starting Tuesday, after I get home from WA, I start the cleanse. This cleanse is to rid my body of toxins and to get it in better shape for maximum weight loss.
When asked about side effects, Dr. W said I could be/have:
I also need to restrict my diet more. Practically, it's cutting out dairy and soy. I can do that for 2 weeks. Good thing I like almond milk! Typically, people on this cleanse are supposed to avoid foods that could be allergens. But since I'm on such a restricted diet anyway (although it doesn't feel like it at all) I'm allowed to have eggs.
Over the next few days (week maybe) I'll be revamping the blog and adding tabs with recipes, my workouts and such.
And now. I'm going to finish watching The Biggest Loser, snuggle in my blanket and bask in awesomeness that is being 9.8lbs lighter.
