Master Cleanse: Day 12

June 28, 2008: Day 12

The tea woke me up at 5 this morning. There was no way I was going to drink the SWF that early. I drank the tea at 11 last night, so it worked rather quickly. When I woke up again, 4 hours later, I drank the SWF.

Today’s weight: 239

The SWF did its magic. It washed the hunger from yesterday away. I was not hungry for most of the day. I only became hungry when I went to my sister’s home. It was her birthday today. She had her friends come over, as well as my step-siblings. I helped her set up for the event. Not much, but I cut the cheese (that was not supposed to sound bad…) for cheese and crackers. There came a point that I had to open another package of cheese, and it was not opening. I did not want to use my mouth to try to split the plastic wrap, because my fingers had cheese grease on them, and had touched the plastic already. When my sister saw me using a knife, she laughed and opened the package for me.

I was not actually tempted, but I felt like eating. I knew I wasn’t hungry, but those thoughts were still there. I decided to stop the cleanse on day 15. This is because the 4th of July holiday has so many picnics and barbeques attached to it. I will also be at my mom’s home, which is 45 minutes from my apartment, and I do not want to have to bring my lemonade with me. I should be able to eat whole foods in one week from now…
