Hi, Mommy--Adia answered your questions well. You will be detoxing for at least 3 days, sometimes five, so just stick with it. You'll feel so much better when it's over! The average (which means some lost less and some lost more) is 6-8 pounds after TWO weeks of Phase 1. Anything you might show as a loss for the first day or two would just be water. Don't stress about this, okay? Just keep working the plan and take gentle care of yourself as you work through the detox.
Keep drinking lots of water (at least 64 oz of plain water...but 96oz is even better), make sure you avoid all cheats during these two weeks, and check out the updated lists to make sure you are aware of all the things you can eat. Eating approved good carbs like beans (including chickpeas), bell peppers, and tomatoes can make the detox symptoms less and help with another Phase 1 issue (constipation). You can do this, hon!
