Day 10: 160.5 (-12 lbs.)
The last day... I made it and I feel so proud and so healthy!
Date: 1/21/2006 9:22:07 PM ( 18 y ) ... viewed 8068 times 1:00 pm Just got back from 1.5 hours of yoga! It was so difficult! I think I really need to do this more often. I feel so flexible right now. I also am SO THIRSTY! I drank about 20 oz. of water in the car on the way to the gym (only a 7 minutes drive). I could have drank the other 12 in my water bottle, but I forced myself to stop so I wouldn’t have to pee during yoga.
4:30 I am so excited about this being the last day. Although I have gone back and forth on whether or not I should do another day or two. After going to the store to buy oranges for tomorrow and some veggies for a veggie soup though, I am SO EXCITED about eating again, I’m definitely letting today be the last. I feel clean, lighter and have the healthier mindset I was hoping for, so all is good!
9:15pm Just got back from a movie and dinner with friends. Again, drank my peppermint tea and watched and drooled over the Vietnamese bowls of noodles, shrimp and vegetables. I was really wanting to eat the food there, unlike the other night at P.F. Changs where I didn't really feel tempted.
I was really wanting to gain a new mindset- I am a healthy person- and this was my main purpose for the cleanse. The desire now to eat vegetarian-like is a huge step for me. I also will make some other food goals/ plans to help this new lifestyle I want to live.
I am very grateful for this diet. Some days were harder than others, but it was such a power of the will to say no to the food and to my body. I also feel SO MUCH BETTER having lost 12 pounds. I want to remember this as well. Clothes are more comfortable, and I feel more attractive at this weight. I don’t know that I’ll do any other types of cleanses/ flushes- liver, parasite, colon… I’m afraid to mess up my body in a way that it won’t be able to regulate my bowels on it’s own. We’ll see. I'm sure I'll do this cleanse again someday- maybe once a year. Maybe I'll long for this lighter, cleaner feeling again and do it again soon.
I’ll drink the tea one last time tonight- I don't know if I'll ever want it again- ugh! I am really looking forward to the orange juice tomorrow and especially the veggie soup on Monday. I can’t believe I’m so excited about that soup. I feel like I’ve been dreaming of it for a few days now. I’ve also been longing for an artichoke- CRAZY! But I have one waiting in my fridge for me now.
I feel proud of myself and excited about the new healthy lifestyle. I’m hoping now to keep the weight off and even lose more, perhaps 10 more pounds.
