Detox Rocks?

General

Posted October 22, 2014

Because there are so many trendy cleanse or detox programs on the market now, how is one supposed to choose the right one? They all provide the same promise to “shed the inches”, but let’s face it, most of us go right back to eating crap after finishing a program (if we even finish). Detoxing should not be about just losing the pounds or inches. Yes, it is always a plus to look good in that little black dress, but a detox is meant to be a new beginning. Detoxing is the best way to kick start a new you.

I knew I needed to detox because I found myself getting a triple venti white chocolate mocha latte every morning, running to grab fast food to eat lunch at my desk and consuming entirely way too many soft drinks. I was feeling sluggish, gaining weight and having trouble falling asleep every night – not to mention my wallet was getting a workout that my body wasn’t, because of these bad habits! That’s when I decided that I needed to change and change fast.

I started my 14-day Detox using the Planet Beach Detoxify supplements on May 27. I began by prepping my meals the night prior, following the approved foods list and avoiding all the bad stuff. I was excited and nervous all at the same time! On the first day, I immediately felt the struggles of caffeine withdrawals, which I expected, as I consumed enough caffeine in one day to fuel an entire cheerleading team. However, it became increasing easier by day 3. I was no longer having trouble falling asleep and it had become fun to create healthy meals. I also became more enthusiastic about exercising, but let’s not push it too far! I’m still not a fan of the gym; however, I found some quick in-home workouts that I could do before and after work.

Because I have failed at every diet I have ever tried in the past, mostly because I am a southern girl who loves some good ole homemade Cajun cooking, day 14 comes along and I am ecstatic! But we all know that this is the real moment of truth, it’s just the bathroom scale and me. Who will come out victorious? I anxiously stepped on the scale turning my head trying to avoid eye contact with the numbers below me. I finally looked down and much to my surprise, I lost 8 pounds! I know it’s not a huge number, but I couldn’t have been more excited!

The real deciding factor on whether a detox program is successful is not on the supplements you take or how much weight you lose. It’s about what you do after the detox is completed that determines its effectiveness. That’s where the weak may fall. In my case, I continue my caffeine-free life, although I am sure the coffee shop misses my $8 coffee order every morning. I still try to opt for healthier items and stay away from fast food for lunch and I try to do my at-home workouts.

To date, I have lost a total of 12 pounds and I can honestly say that the Planet Beach Detox Rocks challenge lives up to its name!
