I started off the day with guacamole (modified): 1 avocado, red…

Cleanse Day 1: Fruit

I found this 7 day cleanse on Pinterest. But I can’t find it anymore.

I want to be able to try out the cleanse and give a first hand account day by day. I’m a HUGE sweet tooth, so I’m anticipating some strong cravings later…
