Day 2 – The Master Cleanse
Wednesday, May 6, 2009 22:45My Master Cleanse - The 2nd Day
Up bright (huh!) and early to get my daughter ready for school. Boy am I glad I made up today's batch of lemonade last night as I'm feeling a bit tired this morning. My daughter was very chatty this morning and it was quite hard for me to be responsive (what do you mean that's a man thing!)
7am - First glass of lemonade followed by another glass of water with some Psyllium Husk (yep - it's still disgusting).
Dropped my daughter off at school at 8am and somehow managed not to steal her school snacks - quite an achievement given how hungry I feel at the moment.
At least today's endless list of meetings kept me from thinking too much about food. Although it made it harder to slurp gallons of lemonade without getting some odd looks from my colleagues. I went for a run this lunch time with my friend John - big mistake; I had absolutely no energy and my friend left me for dust. I think I might have to give the strenuous exercise a miss during the rest of the Master Cleanse.
Had to leave work a bit early today to pick up the cat from the vet - I really could do without this today.
Got home and poured myself another lemonade followed by some wheatgrass ( boy that stuff is even more disgusting that the psyllium husk!). I'm actually feeling a bit more lively now. My head seems to be clearing and I no longer have the bloated feeling that has been a part of my life for so long.
Caught up on some work this evening which helped take my mind off the hunger, which to be honest has started to subside a bit.
I have a confession to make - I took a sneaky look on the scales - surprisingly I seem to have lost 6lbs already. Good news as I am feeling very hungry.
