Master Cleanse: Day One

Today I’m starting the Master Cleanse. I’ve been noticing some irregularity in my digestion, so I figured a nice cleanse would do my body good. I’m also hoping that this cleanse will break me of some of the bad eating habits I have and give me some clarity!

It should be an interesting journey, and I hope you enjoy hearing about my experience. I will warn you, this may get personal. And, if you’re squeamish, some of these posts may contain information about bodily functions that you don’t want to know about.

I just finished my first glass of “lemonade.” It was pretty tasty. I had it warm, so it probably helps that I’m a big fan of herbal teas. Tonight, I will drink my first cup of laxative tea–yeah, I said it. Imagine how I felt asking for it at the health food store yesterday…good thing I don’t embarrass easily!

Sluggish

Sluggish is my word of the day. I can trace myself back to the moment sluggishness hit. Yesterday evening when I consumed a less-than-satisfying Sbarro slice of pizza. The spinach, mushrooms and cheese seemed like a good idea at the time…and the best choice at the train station food court. Today, it was hard waking up (tummy ache) and I’m even less motivated to get to work. My brain is not functioning because it hasn’t gotten the fuel it needs. I know I say this a lot on here, but it is so important to be conscious of what you put into your body…it directly effects your output.
