The end!

Well that's it! I reached the end of my challenge!

Well, it's not the end really, it's the beginning of the rest of my life. It has set me up to carry on as it now feels like a normal way of eating for me.

My biggest challenge now is allowing myself a 'little' of what I fancy without it getting out of control now none of you are watching, so to speak!

I would definitely recommend trying it. You may not achieve it 100% the first time you try but that's ok. You will definitely be better off for replacing some old habits with healthy new ones. Then the more often you try a clean 30 days eating, the more it just feels like you're not actually doing anything but eating normally.

You also feel the benefits of how eating real, natural and wholesome food makes you feel, so you actually want less stodgy and processed junk because you know it won't make you feel good. You can realise this when you re-introduce foods at the end.


So how did I get on?

Results after 30 days:

9st 1.4lbs (was 9st 6lbs - 5.6lbs less)
Not the 7lbs I'd aimed for but close, and am really happy with that.

Waist 28" (was 29" - 1" less) - achieved what I wanted!

Umbillicus 33" (was 34" - 1" less) - 1" less than planned but a good start!


A re-cap on what I GAINED from doing this...

- A normal healthy eating lifestyle
- Total control over food and not food controlling me
- Better energy levels and concentration
- A strong immune system to ward off illness
- The ability to say no and feel empowered when offered foods that are not so good!


Want to have a go yourself?
