My Master Cleanse CHALLENGE - Day 3

When I woke up this morning I finally braved the sea salt and warm water drink that you are meant to drink every morning on the Master Cleanse, all 2 pints of it.  It's meant to help flush down, you know what. Three words: It was AWFUL.  On top of this I had an additional senna leaf tea this morning - to boost the flush.  I've run out of lemons so couldn't have my concoction for breakfast, I guess that's why I opted to for the "flush" technique.

Cooked some bean and mini meat balls stew, barley and made a fresh salad for lunch. At 4pm had my lunch and planning to have my lemonade for dinner.

I feel much better having at least one meal a day - I have more energy.  Although I'm eating one meal a day, I still have to restrict the type of foods that I'm eating.  I can't eat bread, potatoes, sugar, caffeine etc.  Im following Anna Richardson's, Body Blitz Diet recipes and food suggestions.  Her book is more about healthy balanced eating, not starvation.

Everywhere I read about the Master Cleanse, I read that the 1st two days are the hardest.  Even though I  buckled on the 2nd day I believe this is a step forward in healthier eating and detoxing my inside and preparing me to take on the full Master Cleanse challenge in the near future.

I will continue with My Master Cleanse CHALLENGE with my TWIST until I feel I am mentally able to do the full challenge.  My advise, if you want to do the cleanse and stick to it, stay away from food.  Don't touch food for at 4 days and don't dare think of cooking food like I did.

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...
