10 days rolling strong

Well it has been some time since I have checked in for a progress update, so here it is. It has been 10 days now since I have had any food, and I am rolling strong. My daily intake consists of 7 lemonade/syrup/pepper drinks, mixed with glasses of water only, and of course the sea salt/herbal senna leaf colon blow. To date I have a dirty tongue, soft skin, sunken eyes, restless sleep, mild occasions of senseless irritability, and lost a total of 15 pounds. I never thought about a goal weight when beginning the Master Cleanse but I would like to drop another 10 or so and hover around 170 lbs. My cravings for food, being enticed by smell have all but ceased. When my body occasionally wants food I chug a syrup shake and all is well. I did have to cut back of the exercising due to a lack of energy and stamina. I now ride a bike every other day for about 8 miles at a leisurely pace. So far everyone I know from family, friends, co-workers have no idea what I am attempting. Which if I mentioned I have not had any food whatsoever for 10 days they would more likely than not flip out. The only hurdle I think I will have to overcome for the next week and a half, when the 21 days will be up, is the mornings. Mornings so far have been a bit tough. It is when those feelings of irritability, and confusion are at there worst. The ups and downs with my stamina could also pose an abstacle. Oh Well. As for the near future. I started this whole thing with the intention of going without food for 30 days. It seems though from the more I read a 21 day fast on the Master Cleanse, for detox purposes, is equivalent to 30 days. After 21 I plan on continuing for another 5 days drinking nothing but juice, then commencing the ray food diet. A little side note, before this began I was drinking alcohol on a more than regular basis. So far not one drop or desire. I will write later.
