Detox



So today is day 5 of my cleanse. I have to admit I am pretty proud of myself! I didn't know if I was going to be able to make it past day 1. So for those that don't know what I am talking about, I am doing a cleans called "The Master Cleanse" or "lemon Diet" It is were all you drink for 10 days is a mix of lemon juice, maple syrup and cayenne pepper. It is supposed to give you all the nutrition your body needs to be healthy but by keeping it simple your body can use the extra time pulling toxins from your body. Everyone in my family has done it at some point and Brett and I tried it last year and only lasted 1 day(I think cuz we didn't have any real reason to be on it, we were just trying it cuz Meg and Steve were doing it). I decided to try it again cuz I have been on a sugar binge for the last little while and when I tried to stop eating as much sugar it was no use. This cleans is also designed to help break bad habits. So now with a reason behind the cleanse I am finding I am doing just fine, and I feel wonderful, light and clean!
