We were very excited to have real food today. Our 8-day cleanse ended up being a 6-day cleanse ... which wasn't ideal but it was beneficial. We did three days of just veggies and three days of veggies with rice or quinoa. Denis says he didn't feel any different one way or the other. I felt great, slept better and didn't experience the bloating and stomach problems which are regular issues for me. I went from 32 body fat to 30 and 117 to 113 pounds ... not that I wanted to loss weight but I seemed to lose it in the tummy area, which is good. Next year I'd like to plan the cleanse when we're at Desert Pools so I could incorporate the mineral springs and sauna.
We both love our Nutribullet and plan on making more tasty smoothies now that we can have fresh fruits. Denis made us an orange and honey smoothie today - it was great. Tasted similar to an orange julius but probably a lot healthier.
Our site is facing a pond and we enjoy watching the wading birds while reading and soaking in the sun in our gravity chairs. This is the life! We appreciate it even more when we hear from our friends and family up north.

We met new RV friends in Alabama and spent a couple of hours getting to know each other before we headed to Florida. They've seen us at several other parks but this is the first time we had a chance to spend some time together.

That's all folks! Thanks for stopping in.
I'm really proud of you for making it six days. I'm not sure I could handle even one day. Now the fruit smoothies would be great. I could go for them.
ReplyDeleteThanks, I think we did pretty good. We're still enjoying the veggie and fruit smoothies. Having fun experimenting with our recipes.
DeleteI think that bird is a green egret. I've only seen two of them, and never got a decent photo. Your pic is really nice.
ReplyDeleteI've never done a cleanse - hummmm. But I sure would love to lose a little body fat and pounds. I just went to the doctor and they weighed me with all my clothes, shoes, jeans, shirt, jacket. Geez, give me a break! Next year I'm wearing shorts and a tank top and slipping off my sandals! :)
The green egret is out in the pond almost every day, I'll see if we can get a better picture. If you decide to try a cleanse and you're on any meds, be sure to let your doctor know. There's a lot of good info on the web about doing a healthy cleanse but I think you need to use good old common sense.
DeleteNice park. You guys are blessed. Keep it up.
