My BFF left this angel at my house awhile back. She is right at home in the garden, keeping watch over me as I do the Master Cleanse again. Today is Day 8 and I am feeling fine. Hungry, but fine. I wasn't sure I could do 10 days but now I feel confident: I can, and I will.
Little P. likes to dress the angel up in flowers. This picture was taken before it started raining for two weeks straight...
Here's breakfast from a few weeks ago: luscious fruit, including some pineapple guavas from my neighbor. I helped his girlfriend cure her poison oak (Highland's homeopathic pills are the bomb!) and he brought me figs and guavas. A wonderful trade.
Man that picture looks good. Last night the family was having pizza. I amazed myself by being totally satisfied by the smell alone. Just sat there, inhaling..... and drooling.
Homemade potpourri from the garden, or as P. #2 calls it, "potion." Yeah she's a witch all right.
My gorgeous sunny garden is a thing of the past now, the flowers have all been drowned. But the kale still looks pretty good..... I can't wait to eat this whole bed full!
The point of this cleanse goes beyond the physical aspects. The last time I did the MC for three days with the intention of really turning my diet around afterwards. This didn't happen. Now I find I am craving the good stuff..... smoothies, salads, vegetables and quinoa, sweet potatoes. I will incorporate raw goat cheese and our own good eggs occasionally. I don't want the sugar, the white stuff, the crap. I deserve better.
Two more days....
