  1. Master cleanse Day 6

    OK. I want food. Not that I'm hungry, not that i'm craving anything particular...but I would really like to eat again. I miss eating.

    Other than that...feeling great this morning. Lots of energy, moods are uplifted, feeling balanced and in tune with the world.

    Down to 109.8 which is 6.8 lbs since Sunday. Not too bad. I still have 4 more days to go! Since I seem to be losing 1.5lbs roughly a day, I should be around 103-104 when I'm done. Seems kinda small eh? ...

  2. Day 1 & A Half Continued

    Well, it's nearly 9pm and it has been a very good day...with one small exception and I find I am kicking myself in the behind for it, when it's really kindof silly!

  5. Day 17

    Today is day 17 of my raw lifestyle. I had some detox symptoms (headache, fatigue, but nothing to severe. Though I've made the decision to go raw just one day before actually doing it, I've been in transition for a couple of years now (but just didn’t know it!) I mostly made the changes because I have PCOS and eliminating certain foods is a good idea.
