Does Detox Help?

Well, while my husband was trying the Acai experiment, I have been doing detox diet protocols.

My current weight is:
121.4 36.0% fat 48.1% water

Basically, my weight is about the same (no weight gain since cookie diet!) — however, I’m starting to feel healthier. I’m eating healthier and getting more energy as the toxins are removed.

I used: Garden Of Life Perfect Cleanse Kit BUT I added extra Aloe Vera Leaf at night and in morning as needed to make sure I didn’t get bloated/constipated.

I don’t know whether this is better or worse than any other detox diet. It was easy. Eat like normal but add a bit of extra water. I could do that! I felt much better than with other detox programs (as long as I also had the aloe vera leaf – not juice; not gel). Your mileage will vary – feel free to consult a doctor as with any program :) . But on the whole it was an easy cheap test that gave me more energy.

Acai Test Results

Well, I admit, I was a big doubter and didn’t even try this acai test. However, my husband did. He ate *anything* he wanted. He’s been really busy and just couldn’t get himself to diet. So this includes weekend binges on pie and ice cream .. and many more, foods that perhaps one should choose to eat quite a bit more moderately.

He weighed in today:

189.2 24.4% Fat, 55.6% water

Considering how much he was eating – he was very happy with the results. He feels like he lost a little weight – weighing less than when he started cookie diet – but more then his weight in April. So perhaps it helped him to not gain as much as he otherwise would have. He does have more energy.

It hasn’t helped appetite. If you are “puffy” or low energy, this would help.

Acai Test

We are starting to try Acai to see if there is any effect.

Stay tuned to see if Acai helps weight loss.

It would be great if Acai works as it is very tasty :)

Cookie Diet Day 21, evening

Her, I exercised today for 20 minutes. For some some reason the cookies give me a cough and it is much worse after my couple of day hiatus, so I am giving up on the cookie diet.
Him, I haven’t been eating the cookie diet and I haven’t been exercising the last few days. I hope to get back on it soon. Between the stress of interviewing, the stress of our friends illness and his passing and being behind on my book, I just haven’t been willing to add calorie restriction.

Him, 21.7% body fat, 185.4 lb, 58.7% water. 39 inches
Her, 28.8% body fat, 122.4 lb 52.5% water
