Blah

SOUR:

Fruit Flush = Very Cranky Me.

I am on Day Two and this has not been a very good experience so far. I know, I know, it's not supposed to be easy or anything, but not only have I been hungry, but I have been super cranky. I have also had NO energy. Walking up the stairs to my apartment takes it out of me.

Day One was the hardest, because it was nothing but protein drinks until 6 p.m. Can I just tell you that I have never, ever, looked forward to a "raw vegetable salad" so much. I scarfed that thing like it was going to vanish if I didn't eat it fast enough. There was no dressing, but you are allowed a teaspoon of olive oil and lemon juice. Thank God for the lemon juice! That part was actually good.

Today I woke up and was SO excited because I got to eat solid food throughout the day. However, it started with cantelope, and I'm not that big of a cantelope fan. The strawberries were good. The banana was lovely. The apples were fine. I did not, however, eat the mango because I was driving back from Charlotte and didn't have time. (If anyone would like this mango, hit me up!) Dinner was another salad, and I was supposed to drink a protein drink with it, but I just could not.

So far tonight, I am still cranky, impatient and now bloated. And feeling like I might drown because of all the water I'm drinking.

I don't know if I'm going to do Day Three. I just don't know if -- for the sake of my mental health -- I'm going to be able to go through another day of this. Seriously, I hate to be a quitter, but I think two days was a good first start at the detox ... of course, we'll see what I feel like tomorrow before I make the final decision.
