Detox Day 6: Staff Feedback
Q: What is a 10-Day Detoxer’s favorite flower??? A: A CAULIFLOWER!
We are on Day 6 of 10 and still going strong! Since we won't be changing our program up again until Day 8, we decided that we would use today to check in and poll our staff to see how things are going. We have TWELVE girls on staff, including Dr. Ann, who are participating in this detox. We are so incredibly proud that our team took on this challenge with such enthusiasm.

If you're feeling like us, then you might be really tempted to reach for just about anything to fill your belly. We've consulted the Metagenics resources and they say you should not feel hungry! If you do, eat more. There is no caloric restriction during this detox, we only ask that you try your best to stick to the Core Foods until Day 8.
We've been overcoming small dietary challenges throughout this detox but today we faced an especially tempting occasion—a birthday. You will be happy to know we celebrated 10-Day Detox style! Great job, Brittany for sticking to it!
We would LOVE to hear from you, so don't hesitate to chime in! Remember, we are going to be providing $10 gift certificates to the NHIC, and a certificate of completion to those of you who purchased and participated in the detox this week.
