So day one was a snap, then by day 2 I wanted to eat my desk, my family, I had a splitting headache, and was starving. So far today seems to be better. I am doing my shakes back to back so I can eat a real meal with my wife and kids. How many calories is your snack supposed to be? I wonder if that is doing it.

    I had a rough second day too. It gets better, trust me. Snacks should be around a hundred calories. Veggies with hummus, green apples, brown rice cakes with hummus...these are a few my go to snacks.

    It is getting easier as the days go by. I am doing my first cleanse day tomorrow and I hope I survive.

    You'll be fine...I never thought I'd be able to do it, but amazingly, even through the end of the second day, I never got hungry. You'll notice some weight loss, and it will bounce back after you start the shakes and food again. That's normal.

    Good luck!

    Question, if you don't mind: Are you doing this with a coach, or did you purchase the program independently (Amazon or something like that?). Just wondering.

    a year ago my wife's friend signed her up. My wife then signed me up as an associate. I have no coach and am just following the program in the pamphlet.

    that should work...my friend signed me and we also happen to work together, so it's a good support system.

    How's the cleanse day going?

    I have a terrible headache and want to eat everything. It would be easier but I have been cooking and smelling food all day. Did I mention I am a Chef?

    Uh boy...that would make a little more of a challenge. How'd you make out?
