  Ok, so as some of you know, and some of you might not, I have decided to undergo a cleanse of my body - using Stanley Burrough's method from the early 1940's I believe. You can read his book here: http://www.supernatural.com/Wavelengths/Ebooks/TheMasterCleanse.pdf. My main reason for trying this cleanse is not only because I have had some pretty horrible allergies this year, as well as other not fun ailments, but I have had a couple of stressful and emotionally-jumbling weeks. I was trying to find a way to clear my thoughts and gain physical strength to make myself feel better and I then remembered a girl I worked with at my old agency did this cleanse and raved about it. She felt healthier, more emotionally clarity, and not to mention she dropped about 10lbs and kept it off.
So I figured I had nothing else to loose, so why not. I am only in Day One of what I am hoping will be a 15 day cleanse - but seeing as how this is my first attempt, I should let my body tell me if I can keep going or if enough is enough. I have read a lot about the diet, the effects it has on your body, and what I can expect. Without getting too explicit, I've heard the restroom trips aren't the funnest, but that after all is said and done the cleanse is well worth it.
I'm excited and a little scared, and seeing as how my friend Marcus has put money up against the fact that I won't last 3 days, I would have to say I am motivated. One of my girlfriends Amber is going to try and do this with me, so that is exciting to have her support as well. So the cleanse started last night after a bowl of cheerio's. I drank some slimming tea - which tasted nasty if you must know - I HATE peppermint tea.
Work up this morning, had another cup and drank my first class of the lemonade. I think I added too much cayanne pepper cause it's a little spicy, but then again, I'm a wuss so who knows. Seeing as how I am only about 5 hours deep into this thing, of course I have nothing to talk about, but at least I haven't given up yet, right? I'll keep the updates coming :).
