It’s the first official day of the Ease-Out process. The Ease-Out is just as important as the cleanse itself, because you need to reintroduce a normal digestive process to your body. I can’t find the direct source at the moment, but I remember reading that when your digestive system has been resting, your body stops making the digestive enzymes it needs to break down foods. If you eat solids right away, then you could suffer nausea, constipation, or other far worse stomach problems. Also, your stomach supposedly has become smaller and you will not be able to consume as much nutrients right away. You basically don’t want to overwhelm yourself, even if everything smells so good. Don’t get overexcited!
I will say that I’m abnormally hungry today. The orange juice does not seem to satisfy any sort of hunger, and although I’m drinking a lot of water, my stomach never feels very full. I did my Salt Water Flush this morning (got too tired last night), and that may affect how my stomach is ‘digesting’ things!
I am tempted to start on broth tonight for dinner. I’ve read many different sources, and the Ease-Out process differs. Sometimes its Orange Juice in the beginning, but typically just ‘juices or broth’ for the first two days. I may do Orange Juice/Broth today, and the same tomorrow. I also have some leftover lemonade that I could drink throughout the next two days. It’s odd, but I think I’m going to miss not having to think about what to make and what to eat! And being able to ‘turn down’ going out to eat or having a bite of those delicious nachos from the local Sports Bar because I physically couldn’t eat them! I just have to remember to stay smart and stay healthy – and treat myself occassionally.
