Master Cleanse Day #2

Day 2 is better...kinda. I want to eat food and all I keep thinking about is what I am going to eat when I am done. But I must say that I am not hungry. There is a very distinct feeling of being hungry and just craving. You definitely learn to distinguish the two while you are on the cleanse.

I actually realized that I am a social eater. I love to eat if other people are eating. Also, I crave what other people are eating and sometimes I want it just to taste it. The smell of food is actually 75% of what is great about food. I can actually smell food and be satisfied with smelling it. French fries smell really good right now. I always crave potatoes or some kind of starch because I love that stuff.

After the first cleanse, I stopped eating so much white rice. I eat mostly brown rice or some other kind of grain (like quinoa). Red meat is something I eat maybe once every 3 months or so. It's not something I buy to cook, but I'll eat a little if it's there. I eat mostly fish and chicken for protein.

I am going to start making a list of all the things I want to eat so that next Saturday the 13th, I can actually pack up food to eat at the Big Event we have in San Jose. That's going to be an interesting day.

On a more sentimental note, my brother and Desiree got me an awesome journal for my birthday about 4 years ago and I am running out of the pages the journal came with. I called the store that they bought it from because they left me the card and they are going to try to order me refills! How exciting! I love my journal.

Let's hope we close tonight!
