Blog: My First Master Cleanse
1/31/09 1:00 p.m. – I love sleeping in on Saturdays. I woke up at 9 and did the SWF. Then about 10:30 I went to the gym, came home at 11:45 and had a glass of lemonade. I know that it’s a pretty late start for drinking lemonades but I plan on downing them, 1 or more every hour until 7 or 8. I’m feeling really good and the hunger is very manageable. Starting late in the day is going to keep my stomach busy with lemonades, so hopefully I won’t feel much hunger at all. I just read another comment that was left for me. I am so amazed that so many people are reading my blog not to mention actually leaving me feedback. It’s amazing and so supportive. It’s exactly what I need. I’m even feeling as if I would like to mention it to maybe some family or friends, but only if it comes up. I hate bragging, and I would rather that no one knew, than to start telling people. But eventually someone is going to ask why I look so happy? or if I lost weight? Speaking of weight, I weighed myself at the gym this morning, and since Tuesday, which was Day 3, I have lost 5 lbs. I don’t see the difference but the scale doesn’t lie.
9:05 p.m. I’m Cruising! So a friend of mine, whom I was visiting today, offered to take me out to dinner tonight for my birthday. Well I didn’t want to lie, so I told him why that wouldn’t work. He was very supportive, which shocked be just a bit. He didn’t know how it was that I was still standing let alone driving around visiting people when I hadn’t eaten in 7 days. I told him all about it and explained that the lemonade is providing energy and I’m not in any danger. I also thanked him for being supportive and not trying to talk me into eating. I told him that I hadn’t mentioned it to anyone because I didn’t want anyone to think I was this earthy, tree hugging weirdo. It just happened to be just what I needed. I was in the right frame of mind and it just made sense. He appeared to understand what I was trying to undertake and seemed to be genuinely impressed that I had gotten this far without food. He asked me how I was feeling and why I seemed so happy and full of energy. I didn’t really have much of an answer except to say It must be the cleanse. He proceeded to tell me that he couldn’t go more than a few hours before he felt like he was starving, so I just told him that I do feel hungry sometimes but it’s manageable with the lemonade and water. His wife was starting to prepare dinner, so I high tailed it out of there before the aroma of the food drove me insane. I also sent a message to 2 other friends of mine, one of which replied with “Wow, I’m impressed” so how do you not feel great after that.
I’m feeling great, and there is no way that I won’t see this to the very end. Day 7 is just about over. Tomorrow is Sunday, after that just a couple more days…piece of cake…mmm cake, just kidding. I’m going to go make the tea and watch some television. I can’t wait for tomorrow because then I’ll be that much closer to my goal.

| Thank you so much for your support. As I'm reaching the end, I'm realizing how vital having a support system is. I'd like to believe that I'd still complete it if I hadn't told anyone, but I know that it's easier with their support and I'm glad I told them.
