Cleanse- Day 5 and going strong!

There is so much I want to post about tonight that I don't even know where to begin.  And to be honest, I am so damn tired I probably won't even be able to get to half of it!  But I wanted to at least check in.

Today is day 5 and it's going pretty well.  I definitely feel good, and I do notice that I feel more energetic in general.  And get this...I don't even want the snacks I am supposed to have most of the time.  I really haven't been hungry much at all, which really surprises me.  Another weird thing I noticed...my teeth are a little whiter!  LOL I know that is so strange but I think going from drinking SO much pop and water with MIO and such to nothing but a gallon or more of plain water a day is good for my teeth!  Or maybe I'm insane and imagining things.  Either way, I'm going with it. 

Here are my weigh-in's so far for this challenge:
Sunday starting weight: 212.8
Monday: 209.6
Tuesday: 207.6
Wednesday: 207.8
Thursday: 206.2

Initially I didn't have a ton of plans to lose any huge amount on this challenge...was looking for a few pounds, but really just wanted to refocus and get some motivation back.  I have to say though, the results so far have me pretty excited.  I have slightly less than 2 months before the end of my 90-day challenge and I want to win SOOO bad.  In addition, I am 6.3 pounds away from ONEderland!!!  Which I hadn't planned on hitting until June.  It's just really motivating to see the numbers moving.  I know a lot of it is still water weight, but regardless, this is 100% clean eating and that is really showing me how beneficial natural foods are.  To be eating absolutely nothing processed has me feeling better, more energetic and obviously my body agrees with it.  Yes, I am taking their supplements and such, but honestly, I really feel like the food, along with the portions, is the key. 

I haven't been watching my club's leaderboard for the 90-day challenge but I am really curious as to where I would fall right now.  Aaron asked me today if I had looked at it lately (I told them I wouldn't because it screws with my head) and I haven't, but I do want to see it.  He made me a deal that I could look once I'm under 200. I told him that worked because I plan on that happening super soon!  When I started the challenge I was at 226.6.....this morning was at 206.2 so 20 pounds so far!!!  Hopefully I can add a good amount to that in the next two months.  I can tell Aaron is excited too...he is dying for 'his' client to win.  And so am I.  ;)

Lots more to share but bed is calling my name.  And Project Runway.  Priorities!! ;)
