Well i'm nearing an end folks. I took my herbs twice today but I also ate normal food! WOOHOO! I was so looking forward to it :) I'm not gonna write much except that I went to the bathroom again and after I eat I feel sleepy....as I always do. That's why I like to fast so much! :)

Anyway...I'm gonna take the herbs once a day fri, sat and sun and then quit them. But I'm also going to go back to 3 meals a day. I will update you through the rest of the weekend and then it's bye bye for me! So stay tuned and I'll let you know about my after symptoms when I start eating like a normal person again!

As for today...felt great to eat and I'm feeling good and hoping with my exercise classes and my new juicer I will be able to lose some more weight! (or at least keep off what I lost!)

Come visit me at Cousins!

Good morning bowel movement. Yes...I started my blog off like that! HAHAHAH. I was just so happy it finally came...I was getting a bit worried. I think it was all the activity I did last nite! Whew :)

Anyway...back to a normal day at work. I took my herbs twice- 7 am and 2 pm. I had soup at 11:30 am and then again around 4:30 pm. Starting to get hungry again. I'm thinking tomorrow I'm gonna incorporate the salad bar....anyone else in for Cousin's Salad bar? :) Come and join me tomorrow! heehee.

What a special day! My first ENTIRE day off of work for a few weeks now. I mean entire because to me...i had NOTHING planned. Usually on my days "off" I have to be somewhere early in the morning or I have an event planned that night or whatever. Today- NADA! And i needed it. I woke up when my body wanted me to- 8:30...but hey for me that's late! And then I relaxed this morning, took some quiet time and got things done around the house (even though im done detoxing i'm still productive!!) Took my herbs when I woke up! Then I walked Chicago for about 3 hrs running some fun errands!

Well I should post this as 1st day done with my detox! Today was strange. I think because I knew I could eat, I was anxious to do it! So I woke up and got all ready for work. Put on some skinny clothes so I could feel really good about myself, which i did :) I got a lot of compliments too on my body....which I was actually ok with and it didn't mess with my head.

Today was my LAST full day of fasting...day 11. I am SO glad it's over. I worked in the AM and the shift felt longer than ever! I was getting really hungry today and my body was basically telling me enough is enough. By the end of the shift I had such a terrible headache, gas (which smelled horrible so I knew I had something inside of me toxic!!), and was so exhausted. That's when my body said, drink a juice! So I got a juice. Wow...one juice made me feel almost perfect, but still had a headache.

Wow- after last nite nothing could get worse....and it didn't! WHEW! I woke up at 7 and could barely stand straight, I was very dizzy. Then as I was driving I felt like someone had drugged me because I was so out of it. Eventually, after drinking enough water I felt hydrated and back to myself and saying- oh I can do this another ten days! Trying not to get ahead of myself ;) Anyway, I had a packed day today! Meeting friends at 9 til 10:30, running errands, going home to say hi to my mom and new dog, herbal tea with my college roomie who was in town, home for a 45 min nap, Dr.

I completely forgot to say that I didn't take two sets of herbs today because I left them at home when I went to work. That MAY be why I got sick,...not enough nutrients!!!

Ugh. Worst day so far. The morning was great. Woke up, awake and feeling good. Made some raw cupcakes, cleaned and organized, hung out with a near and dear friend and then it started. I had therapy and it was the most emotional session yet! I didn't know I could be so emotional about such a tiny thing. Then I get to work a bit late and i'm still trying to calm myself. In the meantime, we have a huge event- Dr. Charles Partito, the man who owns the Ejuva cleanse I am on, is coming in to speak. So the entire restaurants has to be rearranged plus I had customers to take care of.

Well I decided to go for it! WATER!!!!!!! I managed the whole day with just water. WOW....that was hard. I noticed my energy was lacking a bit...but not so horrible that I couldn't function. I also had some hunger but not so much that I couldn't survive. Overall- not too terrible. I'm gonna take it a day at a time but see if I can make it through the weekend!!!

I worked in the AM so it wasn't too hard there because I had the support. And at night I basically relaxed and watched a movie and some tv. I went to bed at 9. I need the sleep right now and that's A-ok by me!!!!

Good Morning Sunshine :) Definitely feeling energized! I went to work this am and was feeling the love and all that jazz (wow- i just used two musical theatre references in those past two sentences!!! heehee). I have to say- I had another mucoid plaque drop this am- where is it coming from?!?! :)

Anyway, I feel great, although my biggest issue right now is that I am PARCHED! I keep drinking water, but no matter how much I drink, my mouth is cotton mouth! It's SO frustrating!
