master cleanse, day 8: just a normal day



Get up, go to the bathroom, SWF, make lemonade. It's gotten so normal. I've learned to effectively squeeze lemon juice, the powers of cayenne pepper, and how quickly we can down maple syrup. Oh, and that thick Aunt Jemima stuff is fake. Energy is still at a good level, but I noticed I didn't wake up as early today. I'm thinking my 6am wake ups were attributed to the Smooth Move tea some days, but also to the excitement of this experiment. A little more mucus today and the lemonade was damn firey! Bless you cayenne for herding things around inside.

That brings me to probiotics. We definitely want to take these after we're done to replace the good bacteria that was removed when we exfoliated our colons. Weird. It's almost over. Now, I better understand the benefits of drinking water with lemon in the mornings. Them citrus are good.

There's absolutely no half-assing this thing. You're in or you're out. The cold turkey breaking of my food routine as I know it is awesome to say the least. Empowering and completely mental. Physical, yes, of course, but more mental. It's doubtful that I have a higher tolerance for discomfort and pain than the next person, but I was 100% determined. The mindless snacking had to be stopped! And I think it will.
