Ok. So the torturous day 4 of the cleanse is done and over with. I am relieved. I thought I'd never make it through. I thought this was supposed to be getting easier?? WHEN?? I feel like I am starting to want food more and more as opposed to less and less.... ugh... not good..
It was going just fine... until we got to our Church Harvest Festival. Now keep in mind, I have been craving hot dogs horribly for several days now. We get to the cafe, and what is everying eating?? HOT DOGS!! I was surrounded by tons of people (including my own family) happily indulging in fresh-off-the-bbq hot dogs... I almost started crying. I wanted them so bad!! I probably looked ridiculous, but I kept SMELLING the food.. deep, close, intakes of the delicious smells. Ugh! It was horrible!!
Then we got home and my sister and I were looking through some magazines. I had to stop. It's like every single page had vibrant pictures of the most scrumptious looking food... and there were several pictures of hot dogs too... lol... I just had to toss the magazines aside, and just sit there.
This morning is Day 5. I did the disgusting "salt water flush" again this morning. It didn't take me as long to drink it, nor did I gag as much. But after I was done, I just sat on the couch feeling nausous. I had to keep drinking water; I felt so dehydrated. But let me tell you, this time, it actually did flush me out ; )
This mornings weigh in dissappointed me a little. Instead of showing a weight loss, it showed a gain. How impossible is that!!?? I think I must smelled way too much food... lol....
Oh well... I'll keep going. I'll let you know how today goes...
