The Master Cleanse Begins!

I have started the Master Cleanse yesterday in hopes of releasing all the nasty toxins from the body......day 1 has finished. OUCH
Day one seemed fine till I got to work last night at Up River and all the food was around me. French fries, oysters, bread, pasta.....This is all I saw, and surprisingly I didnt notice all the wine (well I noticed, but it was low priority)...

Let me back track. The goal is to drink 6, 10 oz glasses of a lemonade mixture of lemon juice, grade b maple syrup, cayanne pepper, and spring water for ten days. At night you drink Sienna tea, and in the morning you drink a gallon of unoxidized sea salt and warm water. This flushes in the morning. No foods, no caffiene, no nada. So I figured I would start writing about it to everyone to keep me motivated. So a little help please if you see Im struggling.

So back to DAY 1: I made it through the first day (being Halloween and all) eating an itty bitty bite size candy bar and a tootsie roll ( I know why candy of all things), But I did it! One day of no food (okok I know candy is food, but come on). I came home early and hide out with my empty fridge (yes no wine in there, and no food= no temptation, I may hybernate for ten days!) I drank another glass and did my sienna tea and went to bed.

DAY 2: This morning I woke up early to get the salt solution in me and be able to be around before work, so everything could loosen up. For those that dont know me too well, Im candid about "the system down below". I couldn't drink the whole salt solution without feeling sick and laid down on the bed. Two minutes later I am in the bathroom. Wow...ok I had to go back to bed, I felt as though I might throw up or pass out. I drank a good amount more of the solution. Yup....back in the bathroom and back to bed. Thank god I have a bit of time before I go to work today.

So I embark on day two. The book says I will go through these feelings in the first four days. Upset tummies, maybe vomiting, back aches, headaches....more for people who ingest a lot of toxins. Which would be me. I will take some pictures today so that we an see the difference. Eyes, skin, body...etc. Im curious what will happen.
Wish me luck I am going to need it. One day at a time here!
