2009 Metagenics Detox

by Lia Halsall

Life as I know it is about to come to an end WEF TOMORROW.

Yep tomorrow is the first day of my Metagenics Detox. Friday & Saturday were my first two of three colonic irrigation’s to help get things started. I also went to Vic Markets for my organic shopping and then Evelyn Faye for the last of my supplements, so now I’m all stocked up and ready to go. Tomorrow I’ll be posting up this weeks menu so you can see what I’m eating for the next five days. It’s 100% all of the time for the next six weeks straight and then just like comp prep I have to slowly re-introduce food groups back into my diet and depending on my reaction to them whether or not they stay or go for good.

I’m anxious and excited all at the same time as I’ve never detoxed before. In actual fact other than bodybuilding I’ve never been one of those girls that dieted on this that or the other so this is all new to me. Only this time around it’s not for my weight loss but for my health so the positives out way the negatives. I’m approaching this detox with a can do attitude because it’s all about choice and I’ve chosen to do this. I have no doubt the first couple of weeks will be very challenging whilst my body flushes out all the toxins and my taste buds re-set themselves so I just have to hang in there and stay focused. Unlike my comp diets there is no flexibility, it’s 100% all the time for the entire six weeks so that’ll also be something new to me. It’ll be a toughie but I’m ready for the challenge. After all, what doesn’t kill me will only make me stronger and I believe that more than ever now.

This entire detox program has been custom designed for me and my health issues so that’s also exciting. I can’t wait to get to the other side of it because the thought of feeling and looking healthy is something I’ve so longed for. I no longer think of it as an urban myth and now it’s within my reach. So for the next six weeks I’m locking myself down and not committing myself to anything other than this detox. I want to remain 100% focused and not allow myself to get distracted by social gatherings to give myself and my body every single possible chance of success. This is to important to me, my health and well being is to important to me not to take this completely seriously.

So starting tomorrow I’ll be posting all about my experience amongst other things. If you have questions feel free to ask, it’s the only way we learn.

Good luck with the start of your detox tomorrow Lia. I hope it all goes well for you. I will be very interested to know how you are going with this. I have never done one of these either.
