Day 21

It has been really hard now to stay true to the MC. I am on day 21...but the last few days to be honest I have snuck food in my mouth chewed it up to taste it and then spit it out. I don't know what is wrong with me. Why would I sabotoge myself when I am doing so good. I need to drink more lemonade and water. I have to continue to rid myself of the junk food, cook food addictions. I am drinking my senna tea now. I do need to pray for strength to continue. I feel on the verge of tears. It does seem so hard.

Juice Feast

I was really tired yesterday. I went to bed at 5:30 in the evening. I woke up today at 6:15am. I was really tired. I feel really good today. I feel very alert. After church today I will work on getting my apartment together., do some yoga, clean my car out.
After my 40 day MC I will embark on a 20 day juice feast. My last juice fast I mostly drunk bottles juices from the grocery store. This time I am going to pull out the Jack Lalane and start jucing all my veggies. I am thinking of purchasing Angela's Stokes e-book on juice feasting. I am also going to purchase Green for Life.
I am very excited about this. I feel I am coming to terms with my body. I will know longer abuse it like I have in the past. This is going to be a great summer. I am going to transition my son Steven to at least 50% raw. I am going to find a good green drink that he will enjoy so he can have one everyday. Life is great!

Funny how the mind works.

When I was raw I was craving cooked food. It seem such a struggle the last month or so to stay raw. I always end up back on cooked food, drinking alcohol and junk food. Now that I am doing the master cleanse my mind keeps wondering to all the delicious raw foods not cooked foods but raw. I am craving my tahini salad dressing with a huge salad.
After this cleanse I feel I will enjoy raw more and stick to it like I should. I think I got it this time around. I really can't afford mentally and physicially not to get it.
This morning like an idoit I stepped on the scale. Major disappointment. I gain back almost 2 pounds..WTF!! I think I have a clue why. I need to do my SWF and senna more often. I need to drink more lemonade and more water and I need to become active. I haven't done the yoga dvd since the first time. I will try this weekend. I really need to go walking it's suppose to be really nice this weekend.

Day 10 of Master Cleanse

All is well here. I have not been taking my senna tea or my SWF. I really need to work on that. I am glad I have made it to 10 days. Last night I had real bad hunger pains almost most to the point of nausea. I had to drink some water I had by the bed. I was to lazy to get up to go to the fridge and drink lemonade.I did a yoga tape for the first time yesterday. I lasted about 7 minutes. It is really hard. I'm not giving up though. I will do it agian today.

Day 7

All is well. I am heating up some spring water for my SWF. I do need to go out today and buy some more gallons of spring water. I took senna tea yesterday and it worked in less than 2 hours. That surprised me. It usually takes about 8 hours to work. I am down to 219.4lbs. I really need to force myself to drink more of the lemonade because I am very tired.
I hate the way my breath smells. It is the detox. I can't wait until that is over. Well I'm about to go drink my SWF. Uck!

Day 5

Just 35 more days to go woohoo!!
I made another gallon of my lemonade. The gallon I made monday lasted until Thursday. I put less syrup this time and a little more cayenne pepper...boy what a kick that pepper has. I have not been able to do the SWF except once. I will do one tomorrow morning. I still haven't done yoga. I am going to go throught some boxes I have in my living room from moving and make room to do my yoga. I am excited about that. I have notice that I do not drink as much lemonade. I mostly drink it at work and when I get home I have a habit of not drinking anything. I really need to work on that. Now that the weekend is coming up I am sure I will be drinking more.
I will work on a video when I get my camera back. I am lending it to a friend who is going to the Bahamas. I want her to take pics of the Anna Nicole sites...I know..I know...but I really want to see it. :)

In health,

Day 3 of Master Cleanse

I am a little irritable today. It seems like everyone and everything is getting on my nerves. It does not help that it’s raining today. I had intense hunger pains earlier to the point of actually hearing my stomach growl. It’s my fault for not drinking anything when I got home last night. I had no liquids at all when I got home around 7:30pm. I just did not feel like drinking anything. I was to lazy to make my tea. I need to really get my gallon of water in everyday. I stayed up way to late last night watching “The Workout” on the Bravo channel. I just did not feel sleepy. I should have been unpacking my apartment.
I am down 2 pounds.
I need to go to bed early tonight so I can get up to do my salt water flush and yoga. That will be my goal tonight.

Day 2 of Master Cleanse

I am on day 2 of my 40 day Master Cleanse. I am a little tired but that is to be expected.
This fast I must say it is different than my juice fast I have done in the past. I am looking forward to all the great things I have read about the Master Cleanse. Google Master Cleanse to learn more. I have to get to work will post later.
