Detox Results are In

It's such an awesome feeling to kick-off December knowing that I successfully endured a 28-day detox.  One in which my body is only just beginning to reward me big for.  When I started the detox, my goals were rather lofty.  While I made great strides toward success, I didn't make my "goal" numbers.  I'm not deterred though, and it certainly doesn't make me doubt the effectiveness of a detox program. Every ounce of change that I did make, was worth every sacrifice. I learned a lot about myself these past 28 days...some simple; some big = all that will forever leave a footprint in my ways

Lessons from the Detox
The following points have been either reiterated, reinforced, or newly discovered.

1.  Committment starts in the mind.

2.  My health comes first.
3.  Getting stronger changes everything.
4.  Buying organic fruits and veggies is necessary.  If not available, cleaning them properly is a must!
5.  Wine (alcohol) is not a necessary component to fuel social conversations.
6.  I don't need coffee or caffeine. 21-days can make "it" habit; if you want it to.
7.  When it comes to success, patience is mandatory.
8.  I don't need to explain myself or justify my actions: I'm okay that some people will just choose to think my ways are weird.
9.  Body compensation is all that matters; not the reading on the scale.
10. A journey is a journey so you learn about yourself a long the way. Make it worthwhile -   Take note!

As for overall key outcomes from the detox, I've gained nearly 3 pounds of muscle, l have lost approximately 3.5 pounds of body fat, removed liters of harmful toxins (water) from my body, and increased overall hydration by more than 2 liters (good water - stored in the cells where the water belongs).  I have made that necessary dent in my progress that sets the foundation to build upon. With commitment, clean eating, and a challenging fitness regimen, I'm confident that these results will only continue to improve. Now that I have given my system a good cleanse, I'm well on my way to rid the fat and find the fit - for good! 

Moving forward, I will have a bio analysis reading done on a regular basis - at least once a month.  Here's my latest results. 

Keep it Clean & Embrace the Journey!
