Day 1: Master Cleanse

Righto righto. I am doing this. What the hell am I doing? Oh holy mother of all  things eatable and solid. 

It's Sunday and I am basically 2 days late to start because I got no lemons on Friday. I'd had fruits all day, and totally caved when I got home - miserable, headachey and blech. I had a huge salad and decided, pssh if I didn't get lemons it'd be off. I really wanted to do it though, but still skeptical.

"Easing in" my foot. I was hungry and grumpy.

Anyway, so Saturday my brilliant dad went through a lot of trouble to find me a bunch of lemons far away in the bush. Love him so! :) I need to get him a HUGE chocolate for a prezzie.

Right, and then I went got some V8 in the 64oz bottle, so I could have the bottle, and have the juice to prep for a liquid diet.

I still ate a little food yesterday because I was dying, so my last meal was at about 3 pm. Then had some pseudo laxative tea (which I think is wrong for this cleanse but hey it's got senna in it) around 11 or something.

This morning I got up around 5:50 (gahh), and started prepping.

The salt water flush was wow, different. I am using Celtic Sea Salt. Good god. 1 quart of that shit. UUUUUgggh. By the last 10 sips I got used to it, but a couple times well I gagged and just wanted to throw up.

I made the juice so it's on...

Only 10:21 and we're going to the beach.

Gawd.

Also grumpy for other reasons but i will try to distract myself. Sigh. More updates later.

7.04 pm

Mmm sooo tired, a little hungry now. The beach was soooo fabulous. I sat there, looked out at the brilliant water and enjoyed the warmth. The water was cold, but intensely refreshing. I love the beach.

Anyway, so I basically had to endure watching 4 people stuff their faces, while I drank my juice. I sat there in Domino's, looking at the junk food, smelling it and stayed focused on my juice. Sigh. I made it through.

Pizza, fries, burger, ice cream. Holy cow. They all watched me pathetically and felt sorry for me.

I am proud I didn't cave.

Victory.

I'm so tired though that I am afraid that if I take a little power nap I won't wake up in time to finish my day's quota and drink tea. urgh. Will do the gobbling thing soon.

I managed to have energy today, from unknown sources, to swim around more than I usually do. Interesting indeed.

Will be back tomorrow with more reportage.
