Day 2

I wonder how long I’ll stay on this cleanse.  It’s been nice actually just having my bottle of juice to sip on – or in my case, guzzle.  I am catching myself at how often I graze when I’m working with the kids.  I don’t eat enough, in my opinion, so it would be a good thing, but it’s still grazing.  As I enter day 3 I’m just barely starting to miss the little things.  I am realizing though how I don’t heavily crave food (yet), and am wondering how much of that has to do with having spent these last two weeks on a 90% raw diet.

I was getting frustrated at my weight, when I was doing so well eating and exercising, only to remain stuck where I was.  And where the day before I started this cleanse, I gained 2lbs – bringing me to 179.  I was ok with it on one hand, and disappointed in another.  My system just needed a big ol’ boot in the backside.  I weighed myself tonight, 176.  Better, sheesh.  I stayed stuck at 177 for far too long.

I have decided to just pick up a scale of my own, running to a neighbors is getting old!

My first goal with this diet is 10 days, then 15, and 20.  I have nothing really set, just as long as possible.  You can go 40 days, but highly doubt I want to go that long.  I am taking a coastal trip in August, and want to be finished come that time, even if it means I go back on it again afterwards.

The hardest part of the diet is the grose salt water flushes, yuck!!!!  Bleck.  Oh well, I’ll survive *cringe*
