Day 3 of Your Cleanse
The first two days of the cleanse, you eat relatively normally, although you cut out caffeine and sugar. Day three is called elimination time, during which you start to take out seeds and nuts, oatmeal, brown rice, quinoa, and grains from your diet. Relying mostly on shakes for day 3's diet, many people report that day 3 is the most challenging one of the Metagenics Clear Change 10 Day program.

- Surprising cravings: In terms of the biggest surprise cravings, Alex said "It's really surprising how addicted I was to sugary foods and caffeine. I'm craving foods that I wouldn't normally want, like chocolate, but I definitely feel good."
