days 2 & 3 weren't too bad. today on day 4 i was enjoying the smells of food but i really wanted to eat something. so i baked foods instead. *shrugs* the salt water flushes have been going well but it takes me at least 90 minutes to be comfortable enough to leave the house. good thing i've been able to alter my schedule a bit lately.
i think my ears have become more sensitive over the last day or two. my dog barks pretty loud anyway but each time he barked today i had to hold my ears. yikes.
i've decided that i'm not taking the smooth move tea tonight because i don't like the way it makes my teeth feel. makes my gums feel really sensitive like they are swelling. and a bit tingly. either way, i don't like it.
i was able to drink about 5 bottles of lemonade today. and i had to look to see what size i was using. that was a good question. i use bottled water bottles that are 16.9 oz but they are not filled all the way. but if i had to guess i would say that maybe each one ends up being between 12-14 oz each. that must explain why i can't drink as much as it says to. i still drink when i'm hungry and sometimes when i think i'm about to get hungry. my stomach has been gurgling a bit over the last couple days and is right now. trying to ignore that since i need to go to sleep.
i'm glad that tomorrow will be day 5 and that i'm halfway through. i want to make it through the entire cleanse or i see no point. but we all cave once in awhile. i'm trying not to make this that time.
