So it's the morning of the second day of our so-called "Great Cleanse". Mostly I think it's just a plot to make the pockets of the distilled water and Grade B syrup producers richer. And to use up a lot of toilet water. And toilet paper. And straws. And lemons.
Yesterday went fine for me. Drank 6 glasses of the lemonade mixture, which I don't find to taste that bad (Fiancee, on the other hand, had to chug each one and then chase it with a glass of water in order to get through it). That equals roughly 1200 calories, which makes me feel better about not actually chewing anything, since at least my body is getting the basic calories that it needs.
We spent the day sitting around... one of the 2 home repair people actually showed up, so we have a new thermostat in the wall and it works like a charm- AND you can program it online, which is super cool! Then I took a nap. And then took the dog for a walk. And we watched a few episodes of "So You Think You Can Dance". And that was about it for the day.
Today I'm hoping will be different. I just imbibed the salt water flush, so I'm waiting for that to go tearing through my system, and then I have errands planned to run: home depot (to get new curtains to replace the ones the D-O-G destroyed the other day), library, and yarn store. I love being on summer break.
So that's about it. My weight today was 170.2. Now- I do have to point out that I'm not doing this cleanse to lose weight (although I'm quite happy if it continues to fall off). I'm doing it as a do-over, to get me back on track with eating and paying attention to what I put in my mouth. Just so we're clear.
