Day 2 of Master Cleanse

day 1 went off with a hitch! i'm so proud of myself for getting through it. and i have to say, Day 2 went by smoothly as well.

i prepared the lemonade last night, this time with a few changes. the first time i squeeze the lemonade i left the pulp in, with this second batch i strained it all the way. didn't want the pulp to get stuck in my straw. lol! for the second saltwater flush, i chilled the water, hoping that it would taste much better, and it was, but i almost gave myself brain freeze. plus my body was freezing for about 15 to 20 minutes.

today, i kept busy at work and wasn't hungry at all. thought about food, but not enough to go grab any.

i braved going to the gym today. i was still weary about going, because i haven't had solid food for two days. i didn't make it yesterday because i was distracted and still very hesitant. but, i needed to work out because my body was starting to feel soft and i missed the natural endorphins i get from working out. so since i missed spin class this morning (because of work), i decided to take the evening spin class. it kicked my ass, as usual, but i felt fantastic after. i also braved going into the sauna, knowing that if i do go, i'll be losing water, but it felt good to steam. i probably should've brought a bottle of water with me for the water loss, because after i felt kinda faint. so i rushed home and sipped more lemonade.

all in all, i feel really good. i've lost 1.1 lbs, and some how gained .1 % of body fat. i think it's just water. they say day three is the hardest, so we shall see how that goes. i'm going to be pretty busy all day, so hopefully that'll keep my mind off food. it doesn't help to be working a promotion at Whole Foods in Berkeley for a few hours, but i'll keep some lemonade in a cooler right next to me when i work.
