The Master Cleanse Diet - Day 42

Hah, just kidding…I just finished day 5, and boy was it a day.

Today I was seriously considering quitting and going to the closest place I could find food. Then I remembered that I’m so far into the fast that if I ate something now I would either throw it up or get diarrhea. Your question now might be…Do you have that cleansed euphoric feeling yet? And the answer would be no, haha. I’m really hoping that it comes soon.

I may sound like I am completely miserable right now, but in fact it’s not THAT bad. I don’t feel hungry too much any more. When I do get hungry, all I have to do is take a sip of the lemonade mixture and the hunger is gone. I think the worst part of it is that I’ve been habitually eating 3 meals a day for my whole life. And to all of a sudden stop is kind of hard to break. One of my roommates would be cooking something in the kitchen and I would be very tempted to just walk in there and eat ANYTHING.

I guess more than the fact of “cleansing”, this diet is kind of a test of will power, because I’m not doing this diet for any specific reason…just to see what happens.
