Liver Detox Day 7 - I can feel it!

So, today is the last day before I do the Miracle Juice cleansing day tomorrow and then I've hit the home stretch. I'm proud of myself. Last night I went out for a teammate's birthday at the Pour House and I didn't even have a single french fry. Not a one! And no drinks of course. And today I sat through my friend JS eating a naked burrito from Qdoba when I was absolutely STARVING!

Yet I've stuck to it. Through the intense cravings, toxic headaches, and finally loose stools. JS asked me "Doesn't it feel good to know you've perservered and stuck to your guns? Not given in to your temptations??"

My reply: not at all. It doesn't feel good at all. I would have loved to have eaten chocolate and peanut butter and coffee and bread and pasta and...the list goes on. I almost regret that I didn't. I think maybe it's my addition to feeling guilty that drives my constant choices to just give in to myself. Haha.

But nonetheless, I feel 100 times better than before. Whether the diet does actually work, or it is just a mental trick, who really knows for sure. But all that matters is that I FEEL better. And I'm happy!

We'll see if I can make it through tomorrow. If there's no post about the entire day without food (don't think I've EVER done that before - except maybe the time I had food poisoning), someboday give me a call to see if I've passed out or whatever.
