So busy this week....
...I've started Spring cleaning, for one thing it's Spring, and another thing - it just seems to fit well along with Spring cleaning my body. I'm in the right frame of mind I guess and I've already cleared out a lot of junk we haven't even used since moving to our new house.
I've been doing well on 6 juices, 2 or 3 small cups of broth, 8 glasses of water plus some hot water and lemon and a smooth move tea before bed. I'm still staying close to home, I've refused a couple of invites....this isn't forever and I can catch up with people next month. I did venture to a friend's house with my youngest on Tuesday. She made popcorn for the kids...since when did popcorn smell THAT good? I swear I could smell it as soon as I got out of car in the street outside! Still wasn't tempted to eat any...I'm holding strong inside so long as I get juice into me before my blood sugar gets low.
It's occurred to me I need to start some proper exercise....I'm getting some dusting skirting boards but I really could do with getting my heart rate up with a good 40 minute walk on the beach - every day (with a bonus of fresh air!). I'll add another juice if I need to. I really could do with new walking shoes so perhaps I'll buy some as my 10 day reward!
Forgot to mention my 1 week reward.....I bought some nice, natural body scrub when we were shopping on Saturday. I've used it every day since.....I seem to need to shower more often, there are toxins coming out via my skin too!
Day 20 reward is going to be a visit to a nice hair salon! (2 week reward yet to be decided....perhaps more body scrub at the rate I'm getting through it!)
I have a trip coming up on the 26th. It's possible I'll need to make this fast a 28 day one if I want to break it gently and properly. I'm leaning towards doing that. It'll mean I don't get into that exclusive 30 dayers club, but I can't put my trip off any later and 28 will still be an acheivement - esp. since I didn't know how far over 10 days I'd go this fast. 28 days is still 15 days away though...better not count my chickens yet, I'm not even half way!
Off now to clear out my son's book shelves and get ready to take a load down to the charity shop....
PS should mention, the scales say I have a 10lb weight loss. That's fine by me.

| Interesting! I guess I am not the only one who thinks showers are the best thing while fasting! Wow... I think I am going to go and buy some nice body scrubs on my lunch break. Why have dinner when you can have a nice shower? hehe.
