Master Cleanse Day #3

Well... today was a bit better... but not much. Really, this is all a psychological battle... I think I might have said that yesterday (no, I'm not going crazy, I promise). Anyway, the cleanse was better today... I still want food... but I want carbs today (I could care less about a cheeseburger today)... and, of course, the pizza at lunch was a HUGE temptation. But I made it through just fine (with only a minor breakdown... that I don't think anyone else could see). I know the Lord was trying me at one point... I got into the kitchen (where we eat our lunch) where we have two big tables... there were two people at the first one, so I went to sit at the second table the furthest away from where I knew the pizza would end up. I'm standing near the second table... the pizza guy comes in... and puts all the pizza (and salad) right in front of me. I was like, are you kidding me... I knew my willpower was being tried! So... I picked up the pizza boxes... and moved them to the counter where we serve from... so that I would be again as far away from the pizza as possible. I came close to breaking tonight when I got home... really, if I look at it, I wasn't hungry... it was habit. I have some bread on the counter, cut a piece, put it on a plate, and then was like "what are you thinking?!?" (see, I told you, carbs... I want carbs). Other than that, the day has been alright. Didn't do the saltwater flush this morning like I'm supposed to... just couldn't do it. I'm hoping tomorrow will be better and I'll start feeling a bit better and doing everything I'm supposed to do. I'm still a bit tired today... they say usually around day 5 or so your energy picks up... I hope so, because I'm exhausted. Alright... I'm gonna go finish my "lemonade," drink my nasty tea, and go lay in bed and watch the all-star game until I fall asleep... which shouldn't be long...
