Day 3-middle

So yea I gotta confess I ate a tiny tiny morsel today! I had 1/4 cup of vegetable broth with salt and pepper along with my drink today as much as it hurt my ego to drink some broth it also gave me motivation to finish out today strong! Tomorrow I'll start the broth part of the diet and I'll be drinking soups and broths all day maybe a cracker here and there but what I do not understand is the weight loss thing I woke up and weighed 140.8 but I drank that small amount of broth and one of the drinks and I'm back up to 143?! What the heck does that mean!!!! ugh Oh well ....

Day 2

Wow so today has been the hardest day of the whole thing! It felt like today was a million years long! I wanted to eat the whole day the drink tasted horrible ...becasue I'm ready for something savory not anything sweet! The worst was during my class tonight I got so hungry and was so fed up with drinking that stupid drink that all I could think about was soup and mexican and everything else I want to eat but I pushed through and made it all the way through day 2!! I'm so excited for tomorrow I think it will be a good day and tomorrow will be easier then thursday begins soup and broth!!

I'm already planning what i'm eating friday it starts with a great breakfast of egss bacon and biscuits then lunch is a surprise from my loving boyfriend!!!! and then dinner I plan on making some of my famous spaghetti (as my love calls it) then off to a baseball game!!! I'm so excited!!!

Also some good news today I finished my discussion boards for the whole year for one class and I finished a whole paper for my other class now only 1 paper, 1 lesson plan, and a finished case study then I'm done until finals start!!! It feels so good being done with another year of college I feel very accomplished but also very scared because that means I'm one step closer to being an adult....YUCK!!!!! but I guess it's all good....partially because I don't think I'll be teaching when I immediately graduate what my dream is is to work for Disney. I'm probably the biggest Disney fan you'll ever meet and I know this becasue my favorite character isn't one of the princesses or even a well known character. My favorite is Clopin, he's the jester from the beginning of The Hunchback of Notre Dame...yes I know I know I'm awesome!! This is exactly why I want to go to Disneyworld for Halloween because ALLLLLLL of the characters are out during Halloween!!! 

Ok well now i'm rambling!! so here's the end
Starting weight: 144
Today's Weight: 141
Did I Workout Today: YES!!!

New Title New Day

So as of this morning I decided this blog should be (and would be more interesting) more about me lol not in a "oh look at me i'm the greatest and most wonderful person ever" but more just a place for me to air my thoughts and just be me. So here it is I guess i'm still going to be updating on my journey of the master cleanse but I guess it'll be more.
We're in our last two weeks of being in hell i mean college before the wonderful freedom of summer break which i am so excited about because i'll get to be home getting some free food and also some nice time to spend with sane people!! lol and that's saying a lot for my family!
I have also decided i'm going to have a song of the day and mine today is of course the infamous "Twenty-One" ...which is getting a music video?! My line to live by for the day!

"Now I look back and I have to smile, cause boy it was fun
Bein' seventeen, wishin' I was twenty one"

Memories are always a good thing to have!

Well I guess that's it for now

Roses!

Day 1

So today was my first day and I'm proud to say I was successful in only drinking the "lemonade"!! I woke up and made my first drink of the day while I cleaned my house and that contained 2 of the drinks. Then I made another 2 while I got ready for work and went to work. During work it got kinda hard because I got hungry and didn't pack another drink for my shift....during this time I drank so much water that I had to go to the bathroom A TONNNNN!!!!! I told my coworkers what I was doing so they understood. Everyone has kept me going by encouraging me in their own different ways. My friends are saying that they would never be able to do it so good for me for being able to, my boyfriend though he is the best at keeping me encouraged! I talk to him throughout the day telling him the strife's and weirdness of not eating solid food and then tonight when I expressed to him how I wanted a spicy chicken sandwich from wendy's with a huge fry from mcdonalds he said it's ok stay strong. just him saying those 4 words to me made me forget (well mostly forget) how I wanted that fast food. I am so thankful that he is there backing me up.
The hardest part of the day for me was for sure having to go to the grocery store. I saw things I wanted to open and eat right then and there!! Ravioli, Chips and Salsa, Beer, lots of things that I would love to be eating but i'm going to make it through the next 4 days (yes i know i said 5 in my original post but somethings have changed in my life and I had to cut a day off).
Now I just drank the Salt Water Flush solution...let's just say it'll be the crappiest part of my day :D this part of the cleanse is designed to flush your body of waste that it has kept in. And let me tell you this part is no fun. It hurt my stomach a lot and is the most discouraging part of the whole day. I feel so bad I want to curl up in a ball and lay in my bed!!
Well I guess that's all for now
Starting Weight: 144
Todays Weight: 142 (!!!!!!!!)
Goal Weight:125
Did I Workout Today: Yes!! 30 min on the treadmill!!

Pre-Day 1

So tomorrow morning I'll begin a new and scary journey. I'll be starting the Master Cleanse!!!! Or as some others call it The Lemonade Diet. Tonight I told food that we needed to take a break be apart from each other for awhile so I ate what I wanted (actually something I hadn't had in forever) I had a #2 from McDonalds!! gross right i know it tasted good while I was eating it but now I'm thinking what a waste of calories...oh well guess a better decision will be made next time. The Master Cleanse is pretty much a cleanse for your body and I am ready to do away with all the grossness in my diet and start all over completely new so in order to do that I gotta get rid of what all is in my system and thats what the cleanse is for. The master cleanse consists of 6-12 (MINIMUM) drinks a day that are made up of 2 tablespoons fresh squeezed lemon juice 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup 1/10 tsp if cayenne pepper and 8 oz of water and at night to keep your stuff moving correctly a nice sea salt flush for your system! I've never tried anything quite like this before where you go with out food for days at a time but I think i'm ready to change it up and really push myself to see how strong my will power is.
      I started this blog because it recommends that you keep a journal track your progress your emotions everything that goes through you mind throughout the process so I knew I'd never actually write anything down (that's not what my generations about apparently :D) so I thought why not a blog!! The goal of the blog is to be as honest and as open as possible about how I feel and what I see throughout the experience what others say about it and my struggles and accomplishments. My boyfriend made it through 4 days!! I was so proud of him he has more willpower than anyone I know and I want him to see that I can do it too. That yes I'm so girly and completely addicted to Sheetz food that for at least 5 days i'm going to make it through this cleanse.
        I'm also hoping this cleanse will jump start losing weight for me. Now by no means am I grossly overweight but for my size I'm too heavy (plus bathing suit season is right around the corner LITERALLY) so i guess I'm going to be open and honest about that too. I want to exercise everyday and I want to lose 20 by the start of the fall semester.
My starting weight: 144
My Goal weight: 125
Did I exercise today: No :(
Well I guess there ya have it everything I wanted to get out of the way before I actually started this thing. Until Tomorrow...

Roses!
