Day 10: Master Cleanse (AM)

I forgot to make a post last night, but I know it was hard working at the pizza parlor. My favorite ice creams were out and I REALLY wanted some nachos, but I held it together. I couldn't blow it; not on the last 2 days of liquids. I had some pretty intense hunger pangs after getting home, but it's cool down time now.

Today, I'm drinking lemonade - I'm not taking the syrup shot - and broth, orange juice, water, tea, etc. I want my body to get used to something other than the lemonade.

I'm feeling pretty good this morning. I'm down 0.4 pounds from yesterday with a total weight loss of 11 pounds now. I'm only 10.8 pounds from my goal weight. People are noticing a change in how I'm looking as well. The girls I work with said my face is thinner than last week. That right there was motivation for me to not have a bite of ice cream last night. Today should be much easier, but I do work again at the pizza parlor tonight and I cannot have anything again tonight.

I have also worked out an at home daily exercise routine. These things have never worked for me in the past just because I haven't stuck with it, but I think this Master Cleanse has taught me some discipline, and now I feel like I can stick to anything. So I'm going to try and do this at home routine every day for a month. The routine focuses on my "problem areas" which I consider to be my jiggly underarms, inner thighs, and lower abs. Plus I'll continue to do my 5 days a week runs at the gym. I'll start back off slow and quickly work back up to my 3-4 mile jogs that I was at before the Anchorage trip. All of that coupled with moderation and healthier eating, I'll be down to my goal weight in no time.

I call the cleanse a difficult but WELL worth it success.
