Round 2 of the master cleanse
Hey guys! As you can see from my other postings, I have already done one master cleanse back in November of 2006. Here we are in July 2007, and I’m coming back for more!
Honestly, I’m not sure of the most important reason as to why I’m doing another cleanse. I think it’s just for the challenge. Not eating for 14 days is friggen hard. Also, I want to jump start better eating habits by the time I’m done with this bad boy. I just moved into a new place, and I feel like this is a new beginning of sorts for me.
I’m actually already on day 3 of the cleanse. Day 1 was hard, but I for ... read more day 11 18 y
uh oh...
So yesterday (day 11), I don’t know what happened to Mr. Will Power. I seriously can’t believe that this happened!! What happened, you ask? Well, I had this urge to bake, so I made this pumpkin butter cake since, you know, it’s around Thanksgiving. Well, I had every intention to bake it, and then immediately pawn it off on my friends. Well, I was taking it out of the pan, and it was definately still too warm. So a piece was all broken and ugly. I sat there staring at it, and then just decided to eat it. So I ate a piece. Then I panicked. One, I thought my body wasn’t going to be ... read more day TEN! 18 y
stop? who, me? :)
so here i am. on day 10. pretty freaking stoked. :D
I’ve had such a hard week, and I’m sure people are tired of hearing about it by now, but it’s kind of exciting to think that even though I wanted to eat soooo bad (emotionally eating, not eating because I was hungry), I stayed strong and stuck with it. I even had a dream last night of my eating some spaghetti sauce (what a random thing to cheat with!), and I felt so much guilt, even in the dream! I feel that now the weekend is here (pretty much, no class tomorrow but I’ve got to work), I can relax and let the positive effects of t ... read more nine days baby 18 y
neuf jours mes amis
I can’t believe that I’m seriously on day nine of this bad boy. Who woulda thunk it?? Although lately I’ve wanted to eat soooo bad. I’m not hungry, but as I’ve mentioned, I’ve had some hardcore events happen to me in the past few days, and I think what it is, is my tendency to eat emotionally. When I’m sad, happy, etc, I’ll turn to food. So I’m hoping that me wanting to eat soooo bad because I’m so upset and then telling myself not to (and having the will power to do so), will help me battle this urge in the long run. We shall see. But I’m definately doing this thing until Monday. ... read more day 8 18 y
okay... today was hard
I don’t know what it was about today that made it so hard!! Well, it could have been because I felt hungry today. My stomach actually growled a couple of times, which hasn’t happened to me since day 3. And I was constantly having to talk myself out of having just a bite of real food. Hopefully this is just a heavy toxin release day, and these feelings will pass by tomorrow. Wow, tomorrow is day 9. If I wanted to do this for 10 days, I’d be almost done. When I describe what I’m doing to my friends, they are always think I’m crazy. I told one of my friends from back home today, and w ... read more day 7 18 y
over the hump
so this is the halfway mark. exactly one week ago I was enjoying my last meal of a chicken ceasar salad and a bar of dark chocolate. that seems like such a long time ago!! i would probably be in a much better mood if today wasn’t one of the crappiest days i’ve had in recent memory. so much bad stuff happened (nothing too serious, but I’m not graduating in june like i’d previously hoped, but will have to instead stay on an extra quarter; oh and i may not be an ethical person), but there is a silver lining to each peice of bad news i received today (I get to add an international manageme ... read more daaaaaay 6 18 y
not too eventful
hello my friends. day six came and went pretty uneventfully. woke up feeling pretty serene. that’s the best word to describe it. i didn’t have anywhere to be or anything pressing to do, so i just kind of layed in bed for about half an hour before getting up. then that feeling was slashed to pieces by the salt water. ughhhh i hate that stuff... but boy oh boy is it effective. today i was reading up on this buildup of mucus on your colon walls that can be released by doing cleanses, so I am eagerly awaiting to crap out a 7-24” long tube of mucus. yayyyy :D
my mouth still tastes di ... read more day five! 18 y
gimme five, i made it to day five
Whoooo hooo! Made it through day five. Actually, my day was pretty eventful, so that made it easier. I had a lot of stuff to do, aka less time to think about eating!!! That seems to work the best for me.
Really nothing out of the ordinary happened as far as the master cleanse goes... except I’ve been feeling super cold all of the time (could be that it’s gotten really cold here). And I’m usually hot rather than cold, so it might be due to the MC... who knows?? Oh and yesterday the salt water really didn’t sit well with my stomach. I felt very nauseous for the first part of the da ... read more 4th and final day... 18 y
...just kidding
nope this is definately not my last day. actually, after today i feel like i could do this for however long i want. my will power is strong as iron!! although, admittedly, i haven’t had very many temptations. but i’m sure they will come.
and i haven’t really felt hungry lately. i had a few pangs today, but they came and went very quickly. i do nostagically think about food though (ha, nostagically... it’s been 4 days!). like i’ll drive by restaurants, etc and just think about how i have to add it to my list of foods to eat once i’m done with this thing. but it’s not like i want ... read more Day 3, written on day 3 (what a novel idea!) 18 y
day three, day schmree
Okay I’m all caught up now. This blog is about day 3, written on day three! (thursday) WOW. now all i need to do is to stay on top of this bad boy. which shouldn’t be hard because these past three days have been THE LONGEST DAYS OF MY LIFE!! seriously, i can’t believe only 3 days have gone by.
anyway, today was not bad at all. although it’s not over. the hardest part is now, actually. soo... uhhh... about that. haha i’m gonna go barricade myself at my friend’s house where we will watch the oc, grey’s and a bunch of other TV shows to keep my mind off of this!
But again I had ... read more Day 2 18 y
Day 2 HOLLA
I woke up having remembered A LOT of dreams from the night before. I’d slept like a baby, but i remembered three dreams, and two were about eating! Haha, in one my friend and I were at Trader Joe’s, and we both grabbed a sample, I took one bite and then remembered that I wasn’t allowed to do that!
Okay so day two was not as bad as I’d anticipated. I basically do nothing on wednesdays, because I have no class, I used to work on wed mornings, but not anymore! but it was okay, because I had homework to do in the morning, then I had a meeting with my advisor at 2 (to talk about how they ... read more Here we go again! 18 y
Why I'm a crazy cleanser, and day 1
Allright... here we go again with the blog. I’m actually on day 3, but i’m still going to write about my experiences with days 1-2 first, because i found that other’s blogs have helped me OH SO MUCH! Seriously, knowing that other people are going through the exact same stuff is comforting... even though we’re complete strangers.
Anyyyway, the reasons I’m doing this crazy cleanse are:
-I’ve been feeling very tired lately, but having trouble sleeping at night, and then having trouble getting out of bed in the morning.
-I haven’t been feeling healthy in general
-Trying to kickstart he ... read more Hey Kids! 18 y
Agh technology.....
So I just typed in a huge synopsis of why I’m doing the Cleanse and Day 1, but it seems that I forgot to put in the keywords. So now it’s gone.
Maybe I’ll have the time to redo it tomorrow, but right now I have to go watch a focus group video where they’re talking about their favorite recipies for a marketing class I’m taking. Good thing I’m not extremely hungry or anything.... visit the page |
