What is BluePrint Cleanse? A Step by Step Review from a Girl Who Loves to Eat!

So, y'all know how much I like to eat. I can hardly believe I finished this thing! The first day wasn't so bad and by the second night I was so proud of myself that it made up for the black hole in my stomach. I'm not going to lie, I wasn't as hungry as I thought I'd be but I WAS hungry. And while I did feel "cleansed" let's just call a spade a spade, people do this to lose weight or at least to skyrocket themselves into a healthy eating frenzy. If you don't want to lose weight I wouldn't do this, but if you do then I'll just let you know that my pants are now fitting more comfortably than ever after this. Read on to hear by drink by drink account of the Blue Print Cleanse!

3 Days Before:

Dinner with friend. One glass of wine. Split steak and fish instead of getting all beef. Better than just steak, right? Ate lots of brussel sprouts too! Getting a little  nervous…

2 Days Before:

Salad for lunch and couldn't resist getting a scone too. Dinner: Tofu and salad. Split piece of cookie dough pie with ice cream. oops!

1 Day Before:

Started off with fruit salad to prepare. Had to have a Sunday bagel though with Peanut Butter. Hope I won't be regretting it later. Veggie Soup for dinner as suggested.

Day One:

Today is the first day of my cleanse. I woke up anxious and nervous to try it.

9am: Hot Water and Lemon

10:00am: First juice has been started! They're hard to get open, man. I thought it tasted pretty good. A little like a more refreshing, less sodium version of V8. But I do drink Green Juice everyday so it's only natch that I'd like it.

11:22 am: Decaf green tea to "Keep things moving"

12:37 pm: Drink numero dos. Kind of delish. Loving the mint/pineapple. Tastes yummy! Totes scared for how the rest of the day is going to go…am I really going to have energy without solid food?

3:30pm: Drink Number 3. Getting a little sweet and not thinking it tastes quite as delish as the first one but I'm still okay. I'm not starving or anything. Still have good energy. Not tired or even cranky. Curious if I'm going to make it to the gym…

4:30 Roibos tea. Tastes amazing because it has no sugar or sourness to it. Yum!

5:15: Drink Number 4: I'm kind of over the sweetness of these. This one kind of has a teeny bit of spice which is a good change but not really enough. 

5:30pm: Made it to the gym. Have a ton of energy I am shocked to admit. Walk 3.25 miles and lift arm weights for 12 minutes…a long trip to the gym for me.

6:45: Drink 5: This is NOT going down so easy. It's kind of torture. Still not hungry, just wish I didn't have to drink THIS.

8:00pm: Cashew Nut Milk #6- Have been looking forward to this all day. First sip is glorious. Then kind of not the milkshake I had been dreaming of. But overall I enjoy this. 

10:40pm: Still not really starving. I am shocked.

Day Two:

No stomach ache from any of my little cheats over the weekend. Great news!

8:30am: Lemon and water

9:30am: Green juice. Ehh I'm kind of un-sick of it again. not bad.

11:00am: Drink #2. I kind of am in a groove now that I know what they all taste like.

1:45pm: Green Drink #2. Drink it during a meeting. Not really bothered by it. Also shocked by the fact that I'm not starving. Kind of annoying smelling other people's lunches in the office kitchen but I just keep thinking about how healthy I am and that this is so good for me. 

4:00pm: Drink #4. Kind of sick of it and the sweet lemon taste but not bad.

5:40: Last green juice of the day! So proud of myself. Going to hit up the gym again after I finish this and save the "milkshake" for a treat for later! Can't believe Day 2 is nearing a close!

7:45: Final drink of Day 2. It's amazing how good this thing tastes after no food for 2 days. Still managed to go to gym tonight and walk 4 miles. Very proud of myself.

Day Three! Yay!!! Almost done! Still no stomach ache or anything.

8:20am: Hot water and lemon

9:30am: First green drink. I'm used to it at this point. I feel kind of achey though. A little flu like. Not sure if I'm coming down with something or if it's a side effect of the cleanse. eek…

2 cups of green tea in between.

11:30am: Drink 2. Nothing new.

2 cups of Roobois tea in between. Man I have to pee every 3 seconds!

1:45pm: Drink Number 3. Tastes so much like V8. I'm so used to it now, I have no problem getting it down. Def happy though that I only have one of them left!

3;45 Drink Number Four–Get 'her done!

Then you know I finished the last of 'em.
