Indian food tempted me terribly today

Today was a trying day. I started off with a Tbsp. of psyllium husks in 16 oz. water. The water made my stomach feel even more empty to the point that it hurt. I followed that with a Yogi Tea Detox tea with some maple syrup.

I went to work for my stepdad who has a home-based business. It's a great situation because I go there once a week to work for him and Mak goes with me and plays. But today was torture because for lunch they had Indian food, which is my favorite! I love me some Indian food...But I showed an enormous amount of self control and said no to it. Being from India himself, my stepdad took my fast in stride. I described the MC to him and he asked a few questions but was fine with it. I guess I automatically think people are going to be disapproving when they hear about it. But fasting is a cultural practice in India so I guess it's no big deal for them. So I resisted temptation and drank my lemonades and water.

Then to further test my resolve, my stepdad sent the leftover food home with me for my partner. So I had to sit through him eating the food again...it smelled so good!! MMMMMMMM. I'm already planning a trip to the Indian restaurant once I can eat that stuff.

Today I was so tempted to eat the Indian food. More than at any other point in this cleanse. I know I'm becoming stronger in will because before this I wouldn't have been able to resist. I had hunger pangs during dinner time too, which I haven't had before. Yesterday and today are supposed to be the hardest days so I guess it'll just get easier from here :)

Tonight I plan on drinking the Smooth Move and doing the SWF tomorrow morning.
I hope that I start getting some more energy soon...
