Day 9
SW: 155.5
CW: 147 (-1 from yesterday)
Alllrighty, back to work (golf clap)...
Down one pounderoo today - woohoo - I am seriously beginning to come to the conclusion that I should not do the SWF every day, it is inhibiting weight loss, but I will continue to do it every soo often, just not daily or bi-daily.
Yesterday's energy was amazing... it was rediculous!
I completed 12 hours of cleaning non-stop! Yep, pulled out all our laundry, unpacked clothes that were still sittnig around from when we moved (eww.old apartment smell!)... folded everything, organized it, etc.. WOW we have a lot of clothes...
Went shopping for lemons - Unfortunately there isn't any organic anything at my 'SuperStore' aside from bananas
... but I was very picky about what I picked.. all the pre-bagged ones were absolute crap, slowly turning moldy, far too non-ripened...rediculous honestly... But I do have a few for today and tomorrow... brought the syrup and a few lemons today to work =)
took care of dishes, made meals... the man went to have dinner with his rents - thats when I headed to the store...When I came back he opened the door as I was putting the key in, took my bags, told me the Epsom salt bath was ready for me and then helped me get out of the icky clothes haha... TMI, but regardless - it was awfully sweet because I had been 'working non-stop all day'.
Him and I are starting to beeeliiieve that perhaps I am doing all these things around the condo as a 'distraction' from eating food... lol... perhaps - I wouldn't be surprised! *stares at her bandaid from the other days' cut
*
Mind you, the entiiiiire day I had food network on! Seriously, I have enjoyed watching it while on this cleanse... Puts food into perspective for me... as in nutritional value of what people eat every day and or lack there of... Anyway - that was fun ^^ the healthier dishes give me great ideas!
The man told me I may want to consider becoming a nutritionist since I have been picking up all these books and have made nutrition/diet my all-consuming current interest lol. We'll see about that! I toyed with the idea of opening a raw foods restaurant, or a mini bistro/cafe type deal on the same floor/building as say a 'hot yoga' place... then dismissed it since I know nothing about raw foods and or yoga to begin with
Elbow-skin-face: It is feeling pretty dry - well the bumps do. I can run a finger over them heavily enough to make flakes fall (ew. I know.). But no more redness! Again, something you can't see, just feel.
Yet... although 'dry/flakeyness' is apparent - my skin still feels very oily.. it's an odd feeling, but that's detox for ya!
It's 10 am - been a busy morning for me, haven't had time to have my beverage yet - but I think I'll have 4 tablespoons worth (about 2 of my lemons worth) to catch up (thats 2 LA's) with for this morning.
I might just pull a magicmarsha (as her and I were discussing on her blog) and after the 10 days - see how I feel, if I feel good enough, keep going and just tell myself I can stop anytime I want. A part of me misses eating and drinking 'normally' or just being 'able'/'allowed' to do so. Yet another part of me is seeing results so why stop?
Speaking of results - Noticed this morning that my BM's have been getting more and more mucusey..and dark/thick looking - I hope thats good - at least I think it is?
Alrighty - back to work - holy hell it's been 2 hours already at work - time to tackle this mountain of shite!
