Yuck, then YES!

Day 25 arrived - it was a Tuesday. Started the day with a twist, because I was finally able to try the PEP functional food powder that you are supposed to take every day on the Perricone Program, but which wasn't available until last week.
So, I tried it with warm water as recommended on the label. One full tablespoon. The rep from Dr. Perricone's company warned me it was harsh tasting, so I prepared for the worst. I mixed it in about 12 oz of lukewarm water from the tap, and took a sip. My first thought was "yuck", but only because I was expecting it to suck. However, it really wasn't that bad. The only strange part was the consistancy - I had to keep stirring it as I drank it to keep the PEP food from settling on the bottom of my glass.
Now for the results. I haven't really had any coffee for weeks, and I've been getting plenty of exercise and sleep and eating according to plan for 24 days, so nothing was different today except for the introduction of the PEP to my diet. Let me tell you, I know why it is called "PEP" - because that's what I had ALL DAY after taking this PEP blend food or whatever it's called!
I swear - usually I start to drag around 2 or 3 in the afternoon, and I don't usually feel like doing anything like going out or any chores after dinner. But not on this day - no sirree. ENERGY all day long!!! And not the jittery nervous energy I used to have with coffee (which also made me tired if I didn't keep having more coffee!), but a consistent energetic vibe that - oh well, maybe too much energy, LOL!
While the taste wasn't as bad as I had expected - it really didn't even have a taste at all - the consistancy is such that tomorrow I may try mixing it in my breakfast or tea.
Oh, BTW, I ate perfectly fine today except for my afternoon snack - I only had yogurt with berries - not a smoothy as prescribed by the Dr.
Oh well, on to tomorrow!!!
