Okay, I have been intending to do the cleanse for almost 2 years now. Everytime I tried, i only lasted a day. A couple of months ago, I started to go into a really deep depression. I haven't been happy with my life, my job and turned to food for comfort. The fact that I gained weight and my clothes started not to fit anymore, only added to the depression. I didn't want to go out, be seen or talk to anyone. It took a huge toll on me and I didn't even want to live.
Then, 2 weeks ago, I told myself to snap out of this state. I have always been a very energtic, outgoing and positive person and didn't like what I had become. My IBS and bloating problems was at an all time high as well. While I am not overweight by any means, my heaviest was 142 pounds 3 weeks ago which for me is a lot since my normal weight is around 115 to 120 and I am 5'5" and a female. You know what it is like not to feel your best internally and externally. It really is an awful feeling.
So, here is the deal with my MC:
I told myself I would do it this time with NO excuses and take ONE DAY at a time in order for it not to be so overwhelming and a huge deal. I also told myself that I shouldn't be expecting too much in order not to get disappointed at the outcome.
Well it is day 8 now and althought i haven't weighed myself, I literally notice the fat melting away, my pants fit looser and my energy levels are incredibly hight!!! I have been going to the gym everyday during the cleanse and running for 2 hours and sweating it out. I haven't been doing weighs for reasons obvious.
My bloated tummy is flat now and I love to see my abs. BUT most amazing of all, for the first time in my life, I am experiencing this beautiful sense of calm and serenity that I have never experiened. I am so at awe about the effect of mc on my body and mind. I have been doing so many things i love that before I was too lazy to do. Tonight I cooked a whole meal for a party tomorrow and didn't even crave the food!
Anyway, I wanted to share my joy with you all and am sooooo happy that I am doing the MC and plan to keep going.
p.s. The only thing that concerns me is the possibility of hair loss. I have read that while some people expering positive things with hair growth during MC, others have experienced hairloss.
I am always nervous about weighing myself and am just going by how my clothes fit. But i may report my weight here in the next couple of weeks.
