Re: MESSED UP.

I did the same thing on my 7th day. I was doing great but I came home one evening to find my roommate having a party. There was food all over the place and I was tired and feeling spacy from the cleanse. I should have got out of there as fast as possible but I couldn't resist the food and wound up eating. Normally, I have great will power but on that occaison it was bad timing and I caved in. I didn't pig out but I did eat and felt guilty doing it. It was distrubing having such a strong craving take over me...almost like I had a split personality, but I couldn't stop myself. The next morning I felt ok and I went right back on the cleanse determined to finish inspite of the one meal. I agonized trying to decide if it was worth continuing...or even maybe harmful. I finally decided to finish the 10 days thinking one meal wouldn't do that much damage to the fast as a whole.

Today is my 10th day and I'm starting on orange juice tomorrow. I'm having frequent visions of food and I'm afraid that I'll cheat again. Better to quit while I'm ahead. Next time I'm going to insure I have a safer environment to do the fast...maybe even go to a quiet private place with no temptations. Tweet
