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!

The Detox - Day 5:-))

Yes, I have changed the title of these entries to "The Detox", cause I have run out of maple syrup today.  So how can it be a master cleanse without the lemonade drink, right?  I already feel GREAT!  Even though I didn't really stick to it to the tee.  I'm still proud of myself for being determined into detoxing, cutting off certain foods and not eating carby foods after 6pm. I have already started seeing the effects of my effort.  My size 10 skirts still don't fit yet, but mentally I'm feeling superb.  I never thought I could not eat anything without a carb, especially my beloved bread.  But I have hung in there.  I was doing my shopping the other day and eyes lingered on the frozen fries section.  However because I have a goal, I will abstain from all unnecessary fattening foods and I will stick to the rules of the Anna Richardsons, Body Blitz: 1.  No wheat (cakes, pastries etc.), 2. No Diary (apart from the ...

Good bye 2015

I am. The most powerful  two words. Simple but powerful. As the year Draws to a close. Some are in the spirit of the festivities. Others are mourning dreams that have died, feeling like failures because they didn't accomplish their goals.  And some others are in the sombre mood of contemplation. Processing the year gone by. And planning the year ahead. Looking at the past and learning from all the experiences rather than tearing yourself down because things didn't go your way is not the healthy route to take. As the last hours of 2015 tick by. Lets reflect, let's plan, and let's decide to take action in 2016. It begins with one step. A good idea and great plans lie dormant when action is not taking the lead. I read and heard this saying or a variation  of it. And it truly makes sense especially at this turning point. "There are no wrong dreams and plans. But there are incorrect deadlines." So those plans that didn't quiet take shape this year or the y...
