Cleanse Day 2 & 3

[deanie]

So far it's not that bad. The hardest part is I just always wanna stick stuff in my mouth and have to stop myself. It'll be good to retrain my brain (again). I've been thinking about my addiction to sugar and how silly it is. I mean say I put some MnMs in my mouth. The flavor lasts like a few seconds and then it's gone. What's so exciting about a few seconds of flavor that makes me want it so much? Lame. And the thing is I was "sugar free" for a whole year after my surgery. Then I baked cookies at Christmas and it was all over. I've had plenty of cookies in my life so I'll just have to live off the memory of them. It's time to start thinking about what my body needs in order to feel its best. I wouldn't ever give my plants sugar water. Why? Because it would kill them. So why do I do that kind of thing to myself, right? Right!

Anyway, I feel pretty good. I start to feel a little worn out when I'm working in the heat of the day but I suspect I'd feel worn out if it was freezing cold out too so I'll take the heat. As long as I take it easy when I get home I feel fine. I know this is slightly unexciting but really it's just about getting into the routine of following the schedule so I take the nutrients, psyllium shake and eat my meals the right amounts of time apart. I don't love the shake. It's not henous or anything but it's just goopy and not tasty. I gulp it down as quickly as possible then chase it with a bunch of water and all is well with the world. That's all I got tonight.
