Spring Forward Cleanse - Have More Energy in just 15 Days!

Spring is finally arriving in Chicago and across the country and with it comes a sense of renewal. Spring is the time to clean out the house and get rid of all of the clutter that has accumulated in the past year. Time to put away the bulky sweaters and jackets and start dreaming about days outside, summer vacations and trips to the beach.

Um yes, that sounds great, but what about these extra pounds I put on (to keep me warm) this past winter? And what about these bad habits I seem to slip into that result in me finishing off Jane's grilled cheese or eating my entire meal while sitting in front of the computer? Yep, its that time of year to not only clean up my house but clean up myself as well.

A few years ago I did my first cleanse and although it was challenging, it was also invigorating and exciting and renewing.  I lost about 5 pounds, felt lighter and more energized and I experienced better digestion after the cleanse was complete. I felt a sense of accomplishment that motivated me to continue eating well and drop some of the bad habits I had accumulated. Luckily I had Jon as my partner in the cleanse which made a huge difference. We supported each other and cheered each other on (there might have been a few grumbles in there as well - mainly from him).

I remember thinking "everyone should do a cleanse." This is what motivated me to launch a cleanse that is doable for the average person who might initially freak out at the thought. The heart of my detox is only 7 days (a 4 day elimination diet to start and a 4 day transition diet to end - 15 days total) and it involves eating real food. You won't be starving or at a loss for what you can eat. I've designed my program so that your detox experience will be positive and you will succeed!

Some of the benefits you can expect from my detox include increased energy, better digestion, weight loss, recharged metabolism, bad eating patterns dropped, toxins flushed from your body and much more.

The cleanse starts April 11th and I would love for you to take this journey with me. I will be supporting you every step of the way, including doing the cleanse myself. There will be a Facebook group for us all to encourage each other and share our experiences. My detox guide and kick off tele-class will give you everything you need to know, including recipes and other detox tips, to succeed. If you have any questions along the way I will be giving personal email support as well.

What do you have to lose? Grab a friend, co-worker or spouse and join me and other like-minded people and let's all Spring Forward!
