Day 3 actually began at 1:52am when I woke up to terrible lower back and leg pain. It was awful. However, when I got out of bed for work I was alert and wide awake. That lasted all day. As soon as I got to work I did a quick yahoo search on detox side effects and sure enough it seemed to fit. Something about toxins entering the blood stream and thickening blood and whatever. It hurts. I started today with a smoothie (blackberries, banana, almond milk, and 1 scoop detox powder) Throughout the day I had 3 apples, 2 bananas, a salad with red wine vinegar and 3 bowls of vegetarian chili. Yes 3 bowls because after a lunch run and a swim I needed it. The run was very painful. My legs ached with every step and I realized very quickly to drop the watch and enjoy the leaves. Day 4 brings some challenges.
Here's what has been eliminated:
1- meat, sugars, alcohol, artificial everything
2- also removed dairy and egg
3- eliminated wheat, rye, barley, corn
Day 4- eliminate remaining grains, nuts and seeds. Wait to see what 5-7 is.
I'm still at 171lbs but, I am way hydrated with over 200oz of water today to combat the leg pain.
