Detox - Day 3

Jun 29, 2008 16:01

I was hoping not to write this because I felt that I would fail before getting anywhere but I'll write it anyways in hopes that it'll draw support.

So two days ago I started detoxing my body on the Master Cleanse diet. It consists of making your own drink and keeping sustained on that thing for a period of 10 days or more, depending on your goals. The use of this however is not for weight loss. I'll repeat, NOT FOR WEIGHT LOSS Many people do this cleanse to lose weight instead of the health reasons and because of that, the detox gets a lot of flack from people. Before judging though, I would recommend reading about it (you can find the actual book in pdf form on google if you look it up), doing it yourself, and then judging it.

Day 1

This day wasn't so bad. I had failed previously twice in trying to do this and the max I lasted was a day and a half. I have the will of a sheet of paper. But after feeling sickened by the food I ate Thursday night (KFC. Delicious but oh so deadly), I went back to it. The day went fairly easy. I drank about 6 glasses of the recommended 12 and did the salt wash in the morning. It is a good thing I'm an office P.A. because if I was a field P.A., I would lose.

I pee'd out of my butt.

Twice. That was fun. But aside from that in the morning, I mostly just pee'd regularly (non butt style) every half an hour to an hour or so.

Night time was hard. REALLY REALLY HARD

It was the aroma of delicious food lingering around in the air. My brother is back home with us and when he is, food seems to be a plenty. So, I just ran to my room, locked up and slept. No work out that night for me.

Day 2

Every morning is easy enough. I'm usually never hungry in the mornings. I did my salt wash when I got to work, waiting till the crews left so I had less people around me if I had to go to the bathroom (I'm shy). Lightning struck and I was in the bathroom peeing out of my butt again. Rest of the work day was fine with just lots of drinking (10 glasses I believe) and work (not really).

Night again was the hard time. I went over to Alice's hoping that if I went there and immersed myself with gaming I would not think of eating. Didn't work. We played and after we were done, they went to go eat. They wanted me to go to Claimjumper with them and even used the fact that tonight was the last night that Alice and Justin would be around till September (they live in San Jose). Didn't break. I don't know how but I didn't break. Hurray me. HURRAY ME!!!

Day 3

That's today. I'm here slaving away my work to my masters. Quick note, I've been taking senna laxative tea every night since I started but today was the only time I actually felt it work. When I got to work, I took about 3/4 quart of the salt wash. I have been avoiding doing the whole quart because drinking it feels like drowning in ocean. I previously only did 16 oz but today I did about 24 oz before I yucked out and chucked the cup into the sink. Ocean water bad.

It's 4:17 PM and I've only drank three times the detox drink. I must say though, I've been drinking lots of water. Like a small pond or large bathtub with a fat man bathing with his stomach out like an island surrounded by indigenous bathtub ducks. Deliriousness has been a small side effect of the detox.

As for physical changes, aside from peeing out of my butt and peeing a lot in general, I haven't seen any significant changes. I've been lightheaded at times from yawning (strenuous exercise indeed) and felt fatigue. No weight loss that I can see of. As for hunger, I want food. Badly. I love food. There are three things I know I love for sure in this life.

God

Music

Food

If I was a deadly sin, I'd be gluttony!

I want to quit so bad so I can eat that delicious food. But I'm hoping that after tomorrow is over I'll be fine. It's shown that the first four days are the hardest so if I can get out of tomorrow alive, I should be fine. Wish me luck for the rest of the night. I'll be working out later tonight.

*Oh yeah, quick fact. I'm avoiding socializing because of the temptation to eat. Often socializing = food so no. Apologizes dear friends.
