day one.
day one. overall, a little worried, but not too bad....
Date: 4/17/2008 7:33:18 PM ( 16 y ) ... viewed 2255 times i was excited to start my cleanse this morning, but as lunch time came and went, and i was struck with hunger pangs, i began to worry. just a little. because ten days seems like such a very, verry loooong time. but i was only hit maybe twice with sensations of hunger...it feels good to feel hungry. because most days we just eat mindlessly and never really experience real hunger.its six thirty now, and i feel fine...chewing some gum, and the rest of my lemonade sitting next to me.
ive only thus far taken lemonade..no tea and no swf. im saving all those goods for tomorrow. im actually excited to see what happens and what it might bring...
headed to go see some music tonight. band member from my ol' favorite from years pats, a band called brainiac.... will hope my willpower prevails and i can enjoy some soda water and lime....
wow. day one is almost over. not bad.
*************************************************
the evening.
oh, but it was not almost over... walking the mile through the pedestrian district and all its restaurants was a little hard. i kept reminding myself to breathe through my mouth so i wouldnt smell all the temptations. i also became a little more aware of all the fast food and all the crap we consume because it is readily available, and how, (since i spent the hour before researching simple recipes for vegetables at the bookstore) wholesome foods are just so much more - delicious. amazing even. beets with basil. (im fiending beets for some reason). salads with homemade dressings and fresh produce from the market is comparativley. if we would just take the time. mmmm. and i have not in the last year. commuting as well as living in a situation that i dont enjoy going home to. note to self: make more time to make your meals with wholesome and seasonal vegetables...and i am also reconsidering going back to vegetarianism again...so much cleaner.
the music was great, though i felt really unsociable...i kept a pint of soda water and lime on hand...its actually really refreshing! great substitute for a drink. i would highly recommend it.
i left around eleven thirty and was just so exhausted...i passed out on the bus ride home...getting home around 1pm, i made my cup of Smooth Move and watched horrible tv (a habit brought on by my living situation with my current roommmates who love tv more than anything) while i waited for the tea to cool. the tea was pretty tasty, well, at least not bad. licorice flavored. after i finished to tea, i went to bed, only to be awoken around 6am by the worst stomache pains ever. the kind of pains that happen when you have bad diarhhea or something. i ran to the bathroom, but nothing. it hurt so bad, i felt so nauseous and was afraid that this fast might be a bad idea...if i would have troubles going. back to bed. 20 min later the pain starts again...i run to the bathroom, and 10 min or so later am finally able to get rid or a single poop and some other more watery stuff. ah, much better. no more pain. back to bed to sleep in for my day off...mmmmm...
