My Master Cleanse CHALLENGE - Day 1

It just gone midnight.  Currently I feel a bit numb.  A few moments ago I sat watching a food program - just to ease the pain of not eating.  It was not that I was hungry but more that I cannot eat solid food for 10 days in a row!

Forced myself to go into work today.  Could have taken the day off - the excuse being, I might be tooo weak to work.  But money makes the world go round, right?  Need to pay bills! Dragged myself there.  It was a physically challenging job and the shop floor was extra busy.

I guess I made the right decision to go into work because it kept my mind off food.  It was so busy that I only managed to prepare my concoction of lemonade and cayenne pepper at 2:45pm during my half an hour short break.  However only managed to actually mix it with water at 4pm.  Only drank the hot lemonade drink at 5:30pm!  So I was pretty much a zombie when I walked to Trafalger square.

Had my drink on the bus, on my way home.  Every time I gulped down the drink, I received strange looks, people staring at the red mixture in my transparent protein bottle.  I guess I had forgotten how chilly cayenne pepper really was!  I put too much and boy was my belly and throat on fire!

Got so much to share but no time.  So, looking forward to Day number 2!

When the sun bows out, with a smile

Nothing takes away the blow that hits your shallow pit of your stomach.  Closely followed by the stream of tears that involuntarily drip from your face. As I continuously and repeatedly moaned "No! No!" It can't be I thought out loud. I have just learnt that the mother of one of my best friends has passed away. What's upsetting is that a gentle shining star has been returned to her Creator. She was a woman of faith. Having been through the loss of one of her daughters recently, she stood in her faith and kept marching on. Through the pain of loss. She trusted and depended on the Author of her life. She was the one who told us off as we tried to go to places where we were not supposed to.  She never minced her words nor her opinions which were based on her faith. The same faith that we professed and tried to lead. But as teenagers, we thought she was cramping our style. Yet she tried to protect us. It's true we do not know the hour. Her hour came wi...

Sisters for life

My Big sis Gugu and my cousin Sne Letters to my sisters, I have decided to write these letters not only to stay in touch but also to play a role in your life as I am not close by for those moments of need, when you need someone to talk to, when you need a shoulder to cry and when you need a true friend.   These are letters are not only addressed to my physical sisters, but also to all women in general.   Especially those who are about to enter the next most important a crucial phase of their lives: adulthood.     I am hoping these letters will bridge the gap of the physical distance that separates us, presently.   Above all I hope these letters will ignite hope, confidence, self-belief and a living faith in the one who holds all things in His Hands. I promise not to judge you but to show you a sisterly love.   I promise not to criticize you, but to boost your confidence.   I promise not to put down with words that will create doubts, but to lift ...

Lowest Point

Have you ever reached a point in your life when you have felt like it just cannot get any worse, when you feel you have reached rock bottom. Well that is the phase that I am currently going through at this present moment. Bear with me as I attempt to fill you in. Well it all begun about 4 weeks ago when I went into work one Tuesday, I worked for a concession within a Mega clothing Store in Oxford Circus. I had just come back a day before from a lovely chilled out week long break I was feeling refreshed, energised and ready to face the challenges of working in the hectic environment that I worked in. A liitle background on what I was doing at this particular job, well I was kind of in charge of the concession because I worked full time, so if anything went wronge it would all go onto my head. I I started the long day at 8:30am and had to finish at 6pm but most of the time I clocked out at 6:20-6:30pm. I don't mind hard work but working under stressful environment was what I had t...
