Day 8: Master Cleanse (AM)

Sorry for the lack of post last night. Was having movie night with hubby and didn't think of making a post. I can remember, though, from last night that it was hard. We both got food cravings and our stomachs were both growling. We even considered starting our merge back into solid foods on day 9 or 10. We talked about only doing broth on those last two days, but I decided to stick to my original goal. I guess when I originally made out my goal, I didn't clearly set the rules about nothing but lemonade till day 11 with days 1 and 2 being a merge into lemonade. Jeremy has decided to go with broth on day 10 to give him an extra day of merging back into the solids. I'm going to continue with the lemonade through day 10 and go to broths and yogurt and juice on day 11.

Now as for this morning. I'm down 1.4 pounds from yesterday with a total weight loss of 10.2 pounds since this time last week. My clothes are fitting better, I feel better about myself, I feel lighter and perkier, and I feel a bit less self conscious. :) It's hard to believe that by the time this thing is over, I could be 7 pounds away from my goal weight. Right now I'm only 11.6 pounds away from my goal weight.

Feeling good this morning. Slept in till 9, but I'm energized and ready for the day.
