MC2 Day 2

Yesterday I only had 3 glasses of lemonade. Today, I had to squeeze a 4th one in a half hour ago. I was thinking I only had to drink 4, until I was re-reading the instructions of 6-12. So, tomorrow I will find time to drink the other 2. I know it is weird, but I actually feel full right now. Although, for a couple hours I was feeling a little hunger, but that is because I was watching somebody cooking on TV, and I would be reminded of food.

For the last time, I was obsessed with researching info on the cleanse. This time, I find that I am busy doing other things, and I forget that I am doing this. Then I realize that I have already completed the second day, and I am not hungry. The first one, I was focused on food. Last time I was obsessed with weighing myself everytime I used the restroom, and upset that it wasn't budging. This time I get on the scale in the morning, and then right before bed. I am able to tolerate the tea and SWF so far. I guess that I know what I am in for, so I am able to deal with whatever comes my way (if I dealt with it last time).

So far, I haven't noticed the SWF working as much as last time, but that may just be because yesterday's flush wasn't what it should have been, and today's didn't quite taste as salty as I remembered. I am using a different type of salt this time. Last time I used some salt that said it was from the Great Salt Lake in Utah. This time is from Belgium. I am really just hoping for similar results.

This blog will not be in as much detail as the first one, because I figure that if you read the first one, you would not want to read the same things again. So this time, I will write the things that are different doing it a second time (as well as things I do that show how dumb I reaally am).

This morning's weight: 216.5

MC2 Day 1

Wow, this morning was crazy. Maybe not crazy, but at least in the "What was I thinking" category. I started off by putting in what appeared to be a tsp of salt into the water. I realized that it was too big to be just a tsp. I looked at the spoon, and sure enough, it was 1/2 tbsp. I know that there are 3 tsp per tbsp. I then added a cup of water to the mixture, and started drinking. There was hardly any salt taste. That is when I realized that my math was off again. I had put in a half tbsp instead of a full. So I added another tsp. Then once I had finished it, I then looked and realized that, once again, it was not a tsp, but 1/2 tsp. It was just too early for my normal thinking skills to occur.

My mix-up this morning will not deter me from accomplishing my goals. I weighed in at 220 this morning. This is basically what happened last year to get me up to the weight I was. I was 230 in early November and by January, I was 267. So, I very easily could have fallen prey to the same trap as last year, but I am trying to stop it before it goes out of control.

MC2... delayed

I did the SWF this morning, then realized that I had used iodized sea salt. Hopefully that isn't too big of a deal. I was feeling rather lazy today. I knew that I needed to go to the store to get all the supplies. I chose not to do anything. I ended up deciding that it was early enough in the cleanse that straying wasn't so bad, so I went ahead and ate all the food that would go to waste in the next couple weeks. Oh, I was stuffed. I still am. I then went shopping. I have all the things needed for tomorrow, so that is not a valid excuse.

After eating all that food, and knowing the way I feel right now, it makes me feel that this is the right decision. I weighed in at 219 this morning.
