Follow Up To Coffee Addiction Cured...

The second visit went a lot smoother and afterwards, I stuck to the recommended diet. I didn't feel sick at all and was able to run errands and work out the following day.
So, I must say the results are amazing. I still have so much energy. I haven't had coffee STILL and I haven't had my mid-day naps. After a week of adhering to the diet, I did eat some fries and felt terrible after. My stomach was hurting and I my body felt sick. It was a dumb move but I was hungry; I definitely learned my lesson.

Before the colonic, I weighed 157 lbs. After the colonic, I weighed 152. I lost 3 inches off my waist and amazingly, I also lost inches off of my thighs! That has been my trouble spot for years and would always be the last area to lose weight. Curious, I researched why fat is so difficult to remove:

"The body protects itself against toxic, acidic lifestyles and diets by making and using fat. Think of fat as your parking places for environmental, dietary, and metabolic acids that are not properly eliminated via urination, perspiration, defecation and/or respiration. You can now say that fat is saving your life. Be glad that fat was not accumulating inside your veins and arteries."

The colon cleanse removed the toxins, thereby erasing the need for my body to store fat. So, the key would be to continue to eat healthy. And considering how those fries made me feel, it should be easy. I don't expect to NEVER eat CRAP again, but I've come to the point where I do not want to harm my body in any way. That's a huge first step.
