Nikky's 30 Day Detox with Debby K -Day 3




The purpose of this 30 day detox blog posts are to promote and report as a type of emersion journalism to see the results from my trainer and life coach Debby. It has been quite a struggle, reading e-mails over and over and miscommunication.

Making it clear that Debby is not forcing me to eat or not eat any food - she makes suggestions and tells me what foods are considered acceptable during the detox and what foods I should probably avoid. She does not pressure - the goals are made by the person doing the detox and Debby is just there to help guide the way. She is not going to be angry if the person eats a big hamburger, but she will remind that person that his or her goals are not being met by doing so.

In my next post I will include the foods that Debby recommends and doesn't recommend. Some of them I disagree with, but that's okay. As long as I follow it generally. Debby has said that the body takes around 20 days to stop craving the certain fats and sugars.

It is difficult in the society and environment that I am currently in to eat the healthiest things, but I make it happen. I am on day 3 and although it has been difficult here is what I have eaten. I am also going to be renewing my Planet Fitness membership and will include which exercises I have done.

Just because I list a food as something I ate - does not mean Debby recommended that I eat it. There are some items, like Odwalla drinks, that I bought just because I expected it would please Debby, come to find out - they are not on the detox list. The goal is to eat real foods, not processed.

The first few days are difficult without knowing what to eat. Debby is not asking me to starve myself, it will just take some getting used to.

Day 1- A cup of papaya and pineapple that I cut up
Some granola balls that my mother made
Water

Day 2- 1 piece of pepperoni pizza from Dominos
Nestea Ice Tea
2 Red Powerades

Day 3 (today, at 8:55 am)
In the school's dining commons

A few pieces of fruit (cantaloupe, orange, strawberry)
egg whites.
corn beef hash
ketchup
water


Debby will assess what I have eaten and give suggestions.
Stay tuned.


EDIT FROM DEBBY:

"HI Nikky, I just needed to clarify my title. I am NOT a Life Coach. I am a certified Health/Fitness specialist with the American College of Sports Medicine. I have also gone through the Wellness and Fitness coaching program with Wellcoach Corporation, which is endorsed by ACSM

I hope this clarifies this for those of you out there who actually are Life Coaches!
