It's a Cultural Thing

So - this is my biggest hurdle. Everywhere we go, we eat. At least, *I* eat. Food is *everywhere*!!! Watching a movie? You need popcorn. Visiting a friend? They offer you something. Going on a date? You get DINNER. Talking with your kids afterschool? You sit in your *kitchen* and share a snack. Having a nice, hot, relaxing bath? You have a spoonful of cookie dough or a bag of mini eggs on the side while you read a book. (well, that's how *I* do it. . . )

Overall, it's been alright today, maybe a little easier than yesterday with the exception of about an hour this afternoon. I was so hungry, and I had to go GROCERY SHOPPING. It was complete torture. Every thing looks *so* good!!!

Things are moving a lot more than yesterday, thanks to the salt water flush. Wow. It's a Doozy! Day two is starting to come to a close. I'm (thankfully) going to be gone during dinner - I'm taking Lillian to skating. I'll sip some tea while I watch the gorgeous girl skate and not feel like I'm missing out at all!

I am very interested in this cleanse you're doing. It sounds very uh... refreshing I think. Good luck with it all. I'm excited to hear how you feel when it's done!

I'm not sure I'd use the adjective 'refreshing' quite yet - but hopefully I will by the time it's over! I think that everyone should do this, though - it's definitely interesting!

By the way. . . eat some mini eggs for me!! I **REALLY** want some!
