Chocolate Avocado Protein Smoothie

Day 7 of the Clean Program’s 7-Day Clean Cleanse! 

Since I am used to doing this cleanse for 21 days, one week was nothin 😉 Here is how it typically goes…

Day 1: This is fun.

Day 2: Damnit I could really use a coffee. I also can’t stop thinking about Skittles.

Days 3 & 4: I’m still a little low on energy, but getting the hang of it.

Days 5-7: I’m in a routine, I’m feeling good, and now I remember why I love this program 🙂

Overall, the best thing about the 7-day Clean cleanse is that you can kick some bad habits in only one week! For me, it’s typically sugar and snacking when I don’t need to. When my body learns that I don’t “need” these things, it helps me to better keep a realistic balance between eating clean and treating myself. What I did notice this time around is how thirsty I am! I am drinking water like crazy. I emailed one of the girls from Clean and she told me that because my body is releasing toxins, a natural thirst is triggered so it can flush what is coming out. Makes sense.

This Chocolate Avocado Protein Smoothie is definitely on the decadent side. It’s super creamy and delicious. I normally make this with banana, however because I was on the cleanse this week I just replaced the banana with frozen peaches.

Cleansing doesn’t look so bad now does it? 🙂
