The night before the beginning
pre-cleanse
Date: 10/3/2007 2:33:22 AM ( 17 y ) ... viewed 1608 times Well here I sit, sipping my tea. I decided on the Chocolate Smooth Moves. I'm a little worried about tomorrow, since I have this paranoia of using the throne in public places for #2 and I'll be at school most of the day, so it will more than likely be inevitable. Well, I guess I have to get past that some time, so why not on this journey? I'm really looking forward to this experience. It's been so nice to read many of the blogs, especially those of you who were successful. It's given me confidence and also some advice that I'm sure will come in handy.
So I have many reasons for this decision, mainly to cleanse my system both phycically (I tend to have a lot of digestion issues), and also spiritually and emotionally. It's also to help me to overcome the ways I interact with food. I am an emotional eater and lately have been pretty much out of control. I did a 3 day water fast a few weeks ago, and I found such a relief and a satisfaction in not obsessing over food since it wasn't an option. What I really discovered was that I spend and amazing amount of time and energy devoted to food. Eating it, preparing it, thinking about it, shopping for it, talking about it.... it's literally an obsession.
I have recently become a little overweight. This is all due to my late-night or all day binge fests. I don't even eat unhealthy foods, I am nearly vegan and refrain from all fast food and most processed foods. I just eat way too much at once and too often. I've been caught in this cycle of binging leading to depression leading to being lazy and not working out which leads me to eating more and being more depressed and on and on....
So my plan is to do the MC for 10 days, although if I still feel that I am releasing many toxins I would like to continue longer. I plan on being physically active most days. Nothing too strenuous, but I will do some strength training, yoga or jogging. I'm a little concerned with the reduced metabolism once I'm through with the cleanse.
Well I'm off to bed...wish me luck!
