Alright. I've made a crazy decision. . . I'm going to do an all-body cleanse. It's called the 'Master Cleanse' or the "Lemonade Cleanse" and it's a really strict liquid diet for at least 10 days. I've done colon cleanses before - with great results, but i feel so sluggish and my skin has been so horrible and even after training for the triathlon, and still running quite a bit (ok - so i've been lazier lately. . .) i still haven't lost the weight (I know - it's not a lot - but it's enough to make me hate it!) that I gained last Easter when I became so disgustingly addicted to Mini Eggs!! And, since they've been available again, I've decided that now is the BEST time for me to do this. I've done a bunch of research, and I'm really very excited about the prospect of having this be successful!
I'm beginning to get a little nervous about this new endeavor - which is why I've decided to blog my journey. I figure that it will give me some accountability, and journaling what I am experiencing will surely be beneficial for me *somehow*!! I made a big, but healthy dinner tonight, along with a batch of sugar cookies. I think I'll eat a few tonight before I drink the first of my yogi 'Get Regular' tea, and get to bed. Tomorrow, I will likely have a hard time drinking a QUART(!!!!!!) of salt water when I wake up and then all of the (special blend of) lemonade that I'd like! I will do my best 'reporting' at least twice a day - and I'll try to include some stats as well. . .
Here's the first stats post:
Face: several zits - but I'm also doing the honey/cinnamon thing, so I won't know which is working best. HOWEVER, at this point, I don't care what clears them up, I jut pray something does!!!
Weight: 116
From what I understand, I will lose a little weight at the beginning, and that will be all water weight - put back on after the diet. But, the last few days I should be losing fat. Won't that be lovely if it could slide RIGHT off my hips??? Sounds *good* to me!
Alright. Any support will be welcome! Anyone else up to this with me????

*love* the blog... but you're on your own, sister!! keep us posted though... i'm curious to see how it goes, just not curious enough (yet!) to try it myself...
Oh my goodness!!!!! I seriously just finished a bag of those darn mini eggs. The empty bag is still right next to me. I should do this with you. I could certainly stand to shed a few and my face is never without a spot (as Savannah likes to call them) or two or three or four or just plain all over.
Way to go. You go girl. I would love to join you but I don't think Mason would love it very much. I will join you on your next one. I could also stand to loose the baby weight and clear up my skin. love Renee
