Thank you so much for your message, it helped put things in proper perspective for me. Since it's the 'cleansing' that is the main objective to keep focused on and not to become deviated by the weight loss that might incure. Tomorrow will be my first day on the program, (my aim is for 28 days - don't know why just sounds right for me, maybe the lunar month thing)I have alot of goals - ridding my body of all the junk I've inhaled over the past year! yikes! and hopefully in the process use this time to learn how to love myself again and treat my body with the respect it deserves. (I'm really hoping to end my unhealthy food addiction) This is an amazing site to have stumbled upon and I thank you all for your insightful and supportive messages. (doing a bit of history reading here)
Well I must be off - excited about getting starting on my new path and I'll be posting my journey along the way. Goodnight...
