Today was the second day of my 5-day reset. In other words, meal replacement shakes and meal replacement bars. I also ate a carrot and drank a lot of water. And I rounded out my busy day by taking the dog for her usual thirty minute walk, even though by the time I got home from taking my daughter to soccer practice at 7 p.m., I just wanted to read in bed and nap.
If you need exercise, get a puppy! Puppies don't understand wanting to relax.

And how am I doing, you ask?
Thanks for asking.
I'm doing okay. I went to bed last night with a headache and woke up with the same headache which I blame on caffeine withdrawal, but I took a couple of ibuprofen and that took care of it.
It's nice not to have to think, "What can I eat?" because all too often lately, I come up with bad answers to that question. This reset is extremely straightforward.
I am looking forward to eating regular healthy food when this is over. Maybe that's the whole point of it, really. A big salad sounds so enticing right now!
So, if you'd like to try this, too, "Like" and "Follow" Urban Girl Wellness and then leave a comment and let me know you've done so.
Onward . . . toward smaller pants!

I'm excited today to see that you have this contest. I've been checking back each day. I have just "liked" Urban Girl Wellness on facebook. I'm looking forward to exploring her page. I do not have a twitter account - hoping that won't disqualify me. I would definately follow her if I had one.
I would love for you to pick me for this 14 day fresh start program. I REALLY need a fresh start. I, like you, got really serious about losing weight by eliminating sugar, starches and then exercising. I lost 60 lbs, had never felt better, then Christmas came and I allowed sugar back into my diet (worst mistake) and have gained back 30 lbs. UGH! Now this summer I feel horrible where last summer I felt wonderful. I NEED a fresh start & this seems like it would be the perfect restart for me. I'm hoping you might hear my great desire for better health through this comment - I am just so weary & need a new start. Thank you!

Okay I liked them on facebook and followed them on twitter. I am in a terrible slump having gained over half my weight back and can't seem to get back to losing it. I would like to try a program like this to get my mojo back! Thanks! Brenda

I have 'liked' the Urban Girl Wellness on FB. This would be great to win. I have lost 45# and then unfortunately gained 30 back and now am trying to 'regain' traction again to get that off plus a bit more. I love my family and want to be here for them with lots of energy and be a great example to them. thanks. Lisa K.

I have liked her on FB and am following her on twitter! I am excited to see how this works for you and I love the idea of no-brainer shakes for a couple of weeks! I am curious about the ingredient list on them. Are you allowed to give it out?
Go Melodee Go!
