Day One

So, today you will eat nothing but fruit.  No bananas or mangoes.  Sounds like it will totally suck?  Yup, it will.  The level of suckage is directly related to how bad your eating habits were before you started.  So if, like me, you've been in a six week holiday junk food free-for-all; you need to be prepared for a world of suckage.  But take heart!  This is the worst part of it and I promise that on the other side you will feel amazing!  Just count down the hours until you can eat a baked potato!

What you may need to know about today:

  • Your body is detoxing!  It may feel like crap.  Headaches and mild nausea are normal.  You may get grumpy.  At one point I threatened to ground my children for eating pizza in front of me.
  • Water, water water!  It will help.
  • Cook and freeze your fruit.  Sprinkle cinnamon on it or splash it with vanilla.  Variety is good.

Breakfast

Lunch

Dinner
  • Last but not least, EAT!  Keep your stomach full!  In addition to these meals I snaked all day on raw apples, pears, kiwis, and frozen grapes.  I actually skipped coffee but found I could handle unsweetened peppermint tea.  Good luck!
