Are the 5 Oz cans of Sunkist Tuna (in Oil or water) ok to eat during the 24 day challenge???
Healthy Girl

@ Tami,
Use the one in water or use the drypack.
Emilee

I keep seeing hard-boiled egg suggestions, can I eat scrambled or sunny-side up? I’m not a fan of hard-boiled eggs, but I LOVE scrambled eggs for breakfast…
Healthy Girl
15. Jan, 2012
@ Emilee,
Scrambled without milk or butter. You can add water and use nonstick pan with Pam.

I just read through the comments…I too get confused with foods we can have no matter how many times I read the list. Unlike most “diets” its not very clear. I have been looking up recipies and food choices posted by others which is helpful.
I can eat most of these foods but need to blacken it or add something. Is blackening season allowed and or old bay? Also I love any seafood with coconut milk & curry powder. Are these allowed during “cleanse” part? And how about black tea?
Healthy Girl
15. Jan, 2012
@ K,
No coconut milk or black tea.
No blackening since there is frequently sugar in it.
Old Bay should be fine.

Healthy Girl
15. Jan, 2012
@ Maxwell,
Tabasco should be fine. No tortillas or other wheat. No pasta – not sure what recipe that you are referring to.

can you have chicken chili on the 10 day cleanse? We had the buffalo wing turkey burgers last night and they were fabulous. If so what is a good recipe?
Healthy Girl
15. Jan, 2012
@ Charyl,
Chicken chili is okay. Add some mushrooms and other veggies and small amount of beans. Be sure the canned tomatoes do not have added sugar.
Cindy
16. Jan, 2012
I thought mushrooms weren’t allowed on the cleanse.
Healthy Girl
16. Jan, 2012
@ Cindy,
We have not had any issues using mushrooms on the cleanse.
Kim
12. Jan, 2012
I know you are able to eat some limited nuts during the cleanse. Are pistacios acceptable?
Healthy Girl
12. Jan, 2012
Almonds are a better choice, The raw ones are best.
Charyl
12. Jan, 2012
My husband and I are on day 4 of the 24 day challenge. We are already running out of dinner ideas. Our sponsor tells us to stick with tuna, chicken and salmon during the cleanse. We’ve had tuna steak, salmon burger, salmon fillet and chicken. I need more dinner ideas…anything good that we can make with canned tuna?
Healthy Girl
12. Jan, 2012
Did you look at the suggestions and recipes? Ground chicken, turkey, other fish like tilapia, tofu are good choices.
LWaverly
11. Jan, 2012
Can I add minimal dried spices to my fish/chicken before cooking? Also, why is balsamic vinegar a no-no? (oops, I just realized it today. I am on Day 3 and used it the first two days for lunches).
Healthy Girl
11. Jan, 2012
@ LWaverly
The spices are great, just don’t overdo the salt. Balsamic vinegar has a lot of sugar.
Tam
12. Jan, 2012
I had 1 tbs of balsamic vinegar and 1 tbs of EVOO today as well with my salad! What are some suggestions for dressings for the salads?
Healthy Girl
12. Jan, 2012
You can use that, but use another vinegar that is not balsamic, or use lemon juice. Walden Farms dressings are great also.

My husband and i are doing the 24 day challenge. We need more snack ideas. He thinks about cake, and bread everyday.no popcorn????
Healthy Girl
09. Jan, 2012
@Arie
The 100 bags of raw almonds are great, as is Muscle Gain after the cleanse. Hard boiled eggs are also good.
Avery Jenkins

Am I allowed to add the ReHydrate to my water while on the 24-Day Challenge??
Healthy Girl
09. Jan, 2012
For best results, use Spark and water until you finish the 24 Day challenge.

i am on day 8 and so far im not impressed with this product.. im hungry all the time ..i think advocare needs to have more infor..im going to stick it out for the 24 days and see if it gets any better on the 11 day ..im looking for breakfast guides and lunch ..
Healthy Girl
09. Jan, 2012
@Nicole
If you are hungry, then you are not eating enough. Please review the instructions, great foods guide and meal suggestions.
Tiffany

I did the 24 day challenge during Christmas. I am now doing just the catalyst. I am a teacher and need something quick and easy to pack for lunch. Can you give me any suggestions?
Healthy Girl
09. Jan, 2012
@Tiffany
Look at the great foods guide.
Some of our favorite lunches:
• Grilled chicken and veggies or salad
• Hard boiled eggs and fruit
• Meal Replacement Bars (the easiest and fastest lunch to pack). Love them!
• Leftovers from dinner – especially grilled salmon with veggies 🙂
• Just Turkey and fruit

ok – i need to know what i can put on my salad….i used to use balsamic vinegar but that is specifically listed as a no-no.
Healthy Girl
09. Jan, 2012
Vinegar (not blasamic) and a tiny bit of olive oil or try Walden Farms dressing.
Karen

I just started the 24 day challenge. Was talking with my daughter in law and she wondered what impact this would have on her thyroid medication she takes.
Healthy Girl
09. Jan, 2012
You should always check with the doctor regarding specific questions about medication and health history.
teri
08. Jan, 2012
I see during the clense I can’t have sugar or honey, what about splenda in my lemon water?
Healthy Girl
08. Jan, 2012
@ Teri
Use in limited portions if you must. 🙂
teri

What about the sweet tooth? Can I have dessert during the 24 day challenge?
Healthy Girl

Any suggestions……..I am having an awful time getting the fiber drink down, it gags me so so bad. Could I add it to some oatmeal?
Healthy Girl
08. Jan, 2012
Mix briskly in cold water and drink IMMEDIATELY. The longer you let it sit, the thicker it becomes.
Missy
06. Jan, 2012
Will some wheat be readded to the diet after the 10 day cleanse? Like bread??
Healthy Girl
07. Jan, 2012
Yes, you can have 1 slice of bread or
other complex carb once per day after the cleanse. It should be whole grain, not whole wheat.

06. Jan, 2012
Can you eat organic sesame sticks on the cleanse?
Healthy Girl

@ KatieL No crackers, or other products with wheat.

When is Catalyst added into the program? What phase?
Healthy Girl

Catalyst is taken during all phases and should be continued after the 24 Day Program.

My husband just started and I have been trying to find things to cook. What kind of beans can he have if i make a chicken chili?
Healthy Girl

You can use the traditional kidney or cannelloni beans.
Heath

I work the graveyard shift. Any suggestions? Should I treat 1 pm when I get up as my breakfast?
Healthy Girl
07. Jan, 2012
@ Heath, Yes – that is what you should do.

I am a vegetarian starting the cleanse. Any tips for meals?
Healthy Girl
04. Jan, 2012
Tofu is good. We are big fans of the SoyBoy Tofu Lin http://www.advocaretips.com/shes-in-love-with-the-boy/. Natural peanut butter with no sugar added in very limited portions is good.
Do you eat fish, eggs or dairy? Dairy after the cleanse is fine.
After the cleanse, try the Griller’s Prime burgers after the cleanse . They have a lower carb content and taste fantastic. Some of the veggie burgers are loaded with carbs and sodium, so be careful.
shannon

what about venison?
Healthy Girl
04. Jan, 2012
Should be fine as long as not fried, coated or covered in sauce.

Today is my first day for the cleanse day! I realized I need to adjust all the morning ritual. First I drank Spark, then drank fiber, then the next 8 0z of water, by the time that was finished, I was DIZZY! too much water I guess too fast. THen I could hardly get down the boiled eggs.Just not my thing. What else can I eat for breakfast. I was trying to hold out on the shakes till the next phase. What do you suggest?
Healthy Girl
04. Jan, 2012
@Kim,
Half hour after the fiber drink eat some fruit. You can have the hard boiled eggs as a snack mid morning.
Deb
02. Jan, 2012
How about dried fruits like rasins? Also should I stay away from white rice? Stick to brown rice if needed?
Healthy Girl
04. Jan, 2012
No dried fruit. Stick to fresh fruit and berries. See the grocery guide for suggestions. Brown rice once per day in small portion is fine.

Jeremiah,
Yes, Catalyst is a separate item. You may also want to consider Thermo Plus after the cleanse:
Catalyst helps maintain muscle mass during exercise & weight management.
ThermoPlus supports the body’s ability to convert fat into energy, promotes a healthy metabolism and helps suppress appetite.

Would crackers and for instance a ham or turkey slice be workable?
Healthy Girl
12. Dec, 2011
No crackers – we are eliminating wheat. Turkey is fine. Try eliminating ham, and other deli meats that have nitrates added.
Jenna
07. Nov, 2011
Can you have turkey bacon?
Healthy Girl
07. Nov, 2011
For best results, you would stay away because of the nitrates.

During the cleanse can I use the Walden Honey Dijon dressing? It says calorie free, sugar free, fat free, carb free, gluten free and cholesterol free on the label.
Healthy Girl
19. Oct, 2011
Cari,
First choice is vinegar and small amount of oil. WF is 2nd choice.

What does WF stand for?

Walden Farms
Matt
12. Oct, 2011
it says complex carbs are good for the 10 day cleanse . Whole grain bread is an excellent complex carb. I get confused why it says no bread. does it maybe mean no wheat or white bread?
Healthy Girl
16. Oct, 2011
@ Matt,
Try brown rice, hummus, etc. as suggested and eliminate all wheat (including white bread and other whole grain) for the cleanse.

Are 5hour energy shots acceptable?
Healthy Girl
09. Oct, 2011
Use SLAM or Spark.
Mark
09. Oct, 2011
Why not 5hour energy? What is the difference?
Healthy Girl
09. Oct, 2011
I can tell you what I know about Advocare products. Backed by a Science/Medical Board, the products that Advocare provides helped me lose a ton of weight and get healthy.
Mignon Morse
