Cleanse - Day 2

Today was much better food-wise than yesterday. I was able to eat the foods we had without any problem.
Of course I still wanted ice cream today, and around lunch time I really wanted fast food like I'd normally be eating. But the cravings actually didn't last that long, and I happen to have fairly strong willpower.

Today is the last day of my full cleanse. Which now I feel kind of lame about cause it's only two days.....
BUT I'll still follow my diet by about 75% tomorrow. Just not cutting things out strictly and completely.

I didn't mention it before but my original day to go to Seattle for college stuff failed. I was unable to get that day off from work...SO it was rescheduled for this Tuesday which I was already guaranteed off! I'm excited to see my possible future living area, and since my cleanse will be over I might as well get some seattle-exclusive junkfood right? ;)

Cleanse - Day 1

Even though I already eat healthier than the majority of America, I still don't consider myself healthy enough. I still eat way too much fast food, I still eat way too much sugar, and I still eat way too much refined white carbs. SO what am I doing about it? I'm going on a cleanse! For this weekend(ish depending on if I can stand it any longer than that) I'm not eating any sugar other than the natural sugars found in fruit, the only carbs I'm eating is a very very small ammount of whole grain carbs, and I'm not consuming any dairy at all.

This morning was...not so great. I made the mistake of not going to the store first to stock up on foods I can eat. So the only protein I could really eat was eggs....which I detest. - _ - Other than eggs I was also lucky enough to munch on plain lettuce and half of a banana.
After I took a shower we went to the store so I wouldn't starve. I stocked up on vegetables, hummus, fruit, and meat. While I was there EVERYTHING sounded good. The candy, the frozen pizza, the free samples of bread. But no not today.

At the moment I'm craving ice cream like no other. The sonic commercial on TV didn't help either. But the closest thing I'll be eating to that is....pineapple?

But I'm fairly good at doing these types of things. I'm not one to cheat or bend the diet rules, and it's only for a few days. :) And for all you saying "Oh but Kent you're already skinny, why are you dieting" this isn't for weightloss!!! It's a cleanse to get rid of the bad things I eat too much of, so that I can add them back in afterwards [hopefully] in moderation. And also just out of curiosity to see how my body feels without those things and if I can even do it. Which I CAN just wait and see!
