On Day 9, we were busy with guests at the house, and so we weren't able to stick to a lemonade every 60 - 90 minutes. Man oh man, did things get savage! We were starving and practically licking the TV screen whenever food appeared. But things calmed and we were feeling better once we started on our regular schedule of drinks.

 

Ahh. Day 10. We're at the end of the cleanse, and I'm so proud of us! For days 9 and 10, I was feeling my usual perky self. I do feel a little healthier, although I didn't really have any global-shaking bowel movements or feelings of incredible energy.

 

Here's a tip: watch out for minor cuts while juicing lemons. I played with our cat a little, and she (gently) bit and clawed at my hands. Boy, when I juiced the lemons, those little cuts turn into major epicenters of pain.

 

Going through and learning all about the cleanse has really taught me a lot about the food I eat and my health. My goal is to start eating healthier, and learning more about the foods and how they can affect me.

 

I really want to start cooking more at home, and we've been looking through cookbooks for ideas. I'm excited!
