Day One

Im doing the master cleanse diet aka the lemonade diet. For the experience not the weight loss. Ill gain the weight back when I start eating again. Im looking forward to eating healthier which I believe is the main reason I am not losing weight.

Before Day 1: 630p- We went and had sushi for Matt's birthday, followed by delicious milk soaked tres leches cake.

130a- I took 2 laxatives according to the directions on the box. Kinda nervous, Ive never taken then before so I dont know what to expect. Im chronically dehydrated like most people. I dont drink enough water. Before I went to bed I was thirsty and had a dry throat.

Day 1: 930a- Woke up feeling tired and parched. I havent been getting enough sleep. Between Mark playing his game all night and my new obession with my game... I was alittle hungry so I decided to prep my first bottle. Juicing is so fun! I drank half the bottle. I really liked to cayenne. I might be regretting it later but Ive always had digestive problems so we will see. I finally finished the drink around 1030. It wasnt bad. My stomach is full but my mind is whispering to me..."What about the cereal? The two bowls of peanut butter crunch?!" I know its just my mind. Im not hungry!

1200p- Round Two! Im pretty hungry so I made a second batch. Ive urinated 3 times so far. Like a race horse. To increase my calorie intake I added an extra spoon of maple syrup and licked one right off th spoon. Im not sure if the hunger is from being dehydrated or if I actually am hungry. Most people get the hungry feeling when they are dehydrated and eat, which I believe I do.

100p- My brain is screaming. FOOD! EAT FOOD! But Im not really hungry. Its a mind game. The water is going straight through me. Im glad I have today off.
Popcorn...frosted mini wheats....stupid cravings...chinese food....olive garden...
My need to snack is over whelming.....250p....

310p- Round Three...not so enthusiastic now. Im not excited about drinking the same concoction all day. Especially since it isnt milk....but the syrup is delicious. It might be my only joy for the next 10 days... I heard the work juicy and cant stop thinking about steak....potatoes

610p- Ugh. I hate this I want to eat food. I want it now. Mark thinks I should continue. Ill give it some time. Im ready to quit. And eat food.

645p- Round Four! I have renewed confidence that I can do this! I read on the website that today and the next two days are the worse for cravings. 9 more days to go! Mark started cooking downstairs. I dont know what it is but it smells amazing! But Im not craving it! Im creating healthy cravings for broccoli and onions and quinoa. Dougie would be proud!

845p- ROund Five and my last one for tonight. I was supposed to do 6? I think. Ill catch up. Then we went for our nightly exercise which was swimming tonight. Im dreading this salt water flush...

1059p- Attempting to swallow all of the salt water.....icky....bleck.....sigh

1246a- This is oddly not that unplesant. Kinda relieving. And no burning. Lucky me. Now to wait until it all passes. Take the laxitives and go to sleep!

Stay Tuned for day 2. Which may not be as detailed because of work and such.
