Day 10

Here I sit with my colon-blow tea, pondering how I got this far without it beign a huge deal!

During this MC, I've just chugged along... done my regular thing without obsessing about the cleanse as I did with the first one. and So, here I am, Day 10 - what a fast 10 days! I haven't had cravings per say... but just not having food in my mouth has made me think a lot about what I'd like to eat. Sushi, tacos, cucumber-pinapple gazpacho, soy soft serve... But not since the third day have I had to restrain myself in any way. I don't know how you people do this when you have to cook for others! That would be tough.

Today I worked eight hours and had my first feelings of lightheadedness/flakiness. But nothing worse than what I might expect after running 4 miles of hills on a hot day like today and then running off to work. Got through the day okay. I went down to my old dept and saw some friendly faces. One of whom kept telling me how great I looked. When I got home tonight I looked in the mirror, and I hate to sound bratty but I think I do look good too! My face is tight, clear and healthy looking and those horrid circles I ALWAYS have under my eyes look so much better. I'm actually kindof nervous about how much weight I've lost (I don't know exactly how much b/c I don't regularly weigh myself), my stomach is flat and my hip bones are sticking out in the front. It looks good but....we'll I guess the weight loss would slow down if that was what my body needed, right? I'm pretty fit regularly, I just usually have a nice layer of insulation over my muscles. Now that insulational layer is quite thin and I look pretty jacked, I love it! I just don't want to loose any muscle (I know on the Master-Cleanse your not supposed to but one never really knows!).

So... here I sit... stil gonna chug along I guess. I bought 10 lemons on the way home so I'm def doing at least one more day. The thought of having to plan meals is exhausting - good motivation to stay on the MC!

Here's to good health!

(I'm going out with "drinks" with friends tomorrow - i'll be sipping water...please let me resist the portobella burgers and pickles!)
