Day 8

Today has been a weird day!!!!

I woke up more tired than usual at my normal time (2 pm since I worked last night) and it took until almost 5 to fully wake up. I had to go outside when I finished my SWF b/c for the past few days it has be absolutely BEAUTIFUL outside, no humidity and about 76 and I've not been able to enjoy it b/c I've had to work. So I went outside and finally finished reading my MC book and got some real encouragement. I've not lost any more weight since day 4 and its bothered me b/c I'm doing everything to a T and I'm still having about 6 BM's a day but I read that even though I'm not losing weight I'm losing inches and I'm gaining a lot more from this than just weight loss (sometimes I need to be reminded to see the big picture and get my head out of my arsh).

As I was sitting outside enjoying the weather I realized that before I started the MC I felt like my life was in a rut. From the moment I opened my eyes in the morning everything went wrong and it snowballed, one thing after another just went wrong. So most of the time I would just figure that day would be just as miserable as the rest and I would force myself to sleep all day and all night until I had to go back to work. I was depressed bad!! I see that things just sort of some how fall into place so easily now, almost like I'm more in line with the universe and everything is starting to line up. I've always known that positive energy out = positive energy in but how easily I forget. Since I've been on the cleanse I've been so much more positive and not been so emotional all the time (just a week ago someone could look at me the wrong way and I'd cry). I've been positive just like I used to be (well lets just say how the real me is) and come to think of it I've not had ANYTHING at all go wrong..............NOTHING, it seems I'm becoming more balanced in all aspects of my life and its so wonderful. A girl at work last night said "there's just something different about you besides the fact that you look smaller, you just have this glow, its like you are radiating and you are so happy" That made me feel so good!

I put on my normal people clothes, as we call them at work, (jeans and t) and they are loose on me especially my tops and that made me feel good! I did notice that I'm having some tooth sensitivity though on one of my bottom molars right at the gum line almost like I have a nerve exposed, I really hope this is just another detox symptom! I've had a headache off and on and some kidney discomfort off an on today as well. I have noticed my weird vivid dreams have stopped, I think my last one was on day 5, thank goodness they made me feel funny when I woke up.

I have had some serious detox symptoms today, the book says that day 7 is your worst detox day..........nope mine is day 8!! I have craved everything under the sun from steak to shrimp to cheese to french fries to funnel cakes........you name it I've craved it today. I'm still holding strong though and I've actually had 2 bm's out of the ordinary in the middle of the day today, usually I only eliminate after my SWF and the lax tea.

Well lets just hope tomorrow keeps getting better!
