  1. Day 9 Whining About Wine

    So, I've had a bit of a setback and not feeling so well today. My 1-week celebration was just a bit too happy for my own good. I had red wine (and more than a glass, ok) and the chemistry did NOT sit well with me! I feel very bleary and off-balance today. Toxic. I like wine with a meal, but I have come to a decision that there is no place for alcohol, no matter how moderate in amount, while I am still so early in this process of transition.

  5. Master Cleanse - Day 2

    Sunday, May 13th, 2007 - OK. So, I still maintain that the salt water flush is still the toughest part of this thing! But once again, I sucked it down this morning...and have had to stay close to the bathroom ever since. Well, actually, I drank a mug of laxative tea, per the MC instructions, just before bed last night (around 11ish) then woke up at 3:45am needing to go to the bathroom. Ya, that worked, too!
