Jillian’s Detox Journey

Day 1
Hi, my name is Jillian. I am a 30 year old female, who has slowly been becoming less active and gaining weight over the past couple years. I love my body and the strength that it gives me, but the New Year is here and means it’s time to get serious about some health resolutions. Today I begin my 21-Day Paleo Detox journey with Living Health Integrative Medicine.

What drew me to this detox is that the ingredients are all natural and paleo, and it allows me the opportunity to get a look and feel for what clean eating should be like so I can continue my journey after the detox ends!

The detox is 21 days in length. Everything I need came packaged up nicely in a single small box. Each day I will consume 2 shakes, 2 packets of capsules, and one CLEAN meal. All of the supplements and shakes are pre-portioned, so I can just grab and go! This is not a calorie restrictive program, so if I feel hungry between meals, I can snack on healthy whole foods in moderation as well. A booklet is also provided, full of recipes and snack ideas to help keep me on track.

There are a couple things I’m hoping this detox will help me kick-start:

• Increased energy- I feel like I am not my usual self. I thrive on my connections with other people. It has recently been all too easy for me to convince myself I don’t have the energy to leave home. I feel too fatigued to go to exercise, or do anything else for that matter.
• Fitness goals- I have always been one to fluctuate in weight, but I have found myself at a point where I am at the heaviest of my life. My athletic build has always caused me to weigh a little extra, but due to poor diet, I no longer have a healthy BMI (Body Mass Index). I would love to get this back down to a healthy range

My ability to stay motivated is key to my success. I have spoken to my significant other, and we have discussed the importance of his support throughout my journey. Guess what? He is going to eat clean with me! There is also additional motivation just knowing that I am going to FEEL BETTER in just a few weeks. Starting to live healthier next week or next month is no longer an option. It starts today.

Be sure to follow me on my journey in the coming weeks!
