The Master Cleanser: Day 2

June 5th, 2007

Another day completed thank goodness!! I’ve heard others say that the first three days are hard. For me this is going to be mentally challenging. I drank my herbal lax. tea last night and did the salt water flush (SWF) this morning.  I use tap water to make my tea, but use spring water for the SWF and the Lemonade. Well this morning I was out of spring water and I used tap for my SWF. I noticed the taste of salt was much stronger than yesterday’s and that during my elimination this morning I had a huge headache and really felt sick the entire time. It’ll be interesting to see how things feel when I do the SWF with spring water tomorrow. Other than that, the day went well. I didn’t have any cravings nor did I feel sluggish or fatigued.

I think it’s extremely important to do this correctly and re-read the book. I’ll be creating a page giving the actual ingredients and measurements of what you need for this. Also a few passages from the book, that I feel are important to know. The book cost like $6 and you can find it at any book store or health food store. I actually got my copy of it online when I did a google search. I’ll try to find the link. Until next time, happy cleansing! :)

Goodbye Clutter! Hello Organization!

June 5th, 2007

I’m sitting here curled up on my sofa trying to go through all the files on my laptop and do some spring cleaning there. The other day I just about died when a blue screen appeared saying there was some defect found and blah, blah, blah. I logged in again in safe mode to try to see if I could figure out what was wrong. A friend suggested that I do a Disk Clean Up and a Disk Defragmenter, something  that I have never done in the 4 yrs. I’ve had my laptop.  How was I suppose to know? My whole life is on here so the thought of losing all of that information was really making me sick. So I did what she said and by the time I was done watching Step Up and The Lake House(including all the Special Features) the defragmenting was done. I restarted my PC with all of my fingers crossed and Yippeeee my Welcome screen appeared!!

Well, this morning I turned on my PC and the blue screen appeared again with the same message. I did the same thing again, this time the defragging part didn’t take so long and everything is fine, but now I’m afraid to turn off my laptop. So I’ve been going through my files deleting the ones I don’t need any more and backing up the ones I do on CDs. It’s been annoying, but I feel like if I don’t do it now before I try to fix this problem, I’ll lose a lot of important documents. I’m a recent graduate and a lot of my blood, sweat, and tears lives in my laptop, plus work related documents and personal stuff like photos and my recordings that you can’t get back once they’re gone.

As I’m going through this I realize that I hold on to things that should have been deleted a long time ago. Then I take a second to look at the stuff  in my living-room and again symbols of me holding on to junk are everywhere:

  • A gift bag of old mail sits next to my desk.
  • A box of unwanted items that was given to me last year when a friend was moving.
  • A purse full of gift cards that I have yet to use dating back so long that I’m embarrassed to say.

And the list goes on….. and that’s just the living-room. I haven’t even gotten to the clothes that I haven’t worn in years or that favorite shoe of mine that broke and I’m still holding on to it, for what? Why do we hold on to things we don’t need? If it’s not serving a purpose why keep it? I guess that could also apply to the  mental junk we hold on to inside, or a person in your life that’s just a pain to be around who always has something negative to say. It’s just not necessary, you know. I know, “easier said than done”, but it’s something that we should think about. One thing at a time, so let me get back to getting my laptop in order and finding a solution to my log in problem.

The Master Cleanser: Day 1

June 5th, 2007

1 day down, 99 left to go!! So far so good. I took the herbal lax. tea Sunday night and did the Salt Water Flush  yesterday morning. My morning elimination was smooth and I drank the hot lemonade through out the day. With the help of a terrific friend my site is up and running, so I’ve been working on it since last night.

I felt pretty good all day yesterday. I wasn’t hungry or craving anything which was good. The only time I felt a little discomfort was during the elimination. I felt like I was going to be sick and once it was over I was fine. I was suppose to post this last night, but I fell asleep before I could do so.  Oh well, I’ll recap today’s events this evening.

Cleansing Me: Mind, Body & Soul

June 4th, 2007

It only made sense that my first post be titled this, because that’s what this site is all about. This is extremely scary for me to do, but it’s something that I MUST DO! We all want to put our best foot forward, show our strengths and hide our weaknesses. It’s just human nature! Nobody wants to broadcast their faults because that would just be plain stupid.

Plain and simple, there are somethings about my life that I’m not happy with and I’m just trying to change the ones that I can and learn to live with the ones that I can’t.  I know it’s not going to happen over night, because that would be too easy and we all know that life is not easy.

So, this is how I plan on beginning my journey to a better me, a toxic free me, a cleaner me, a happy me: I plan on using  this summer to detoxify as much of my life as possible. Kind of like a spring cleaning for my insides. I am one of the many, many obese individuals that exists out there. Looking back on it now, I know exactly when and why I started gaining weight subconsciously at 12.  It was one of the many ways I dealt with the personal issues going on in my life. We all have issues and some of us turn to drugs, alcohol, work, sex, food and a host of other things to deal with them in order to get through another day. I need to approach this “self re-hab” so drastically because I have been lying to myself for sooooo long that I don’t trust myself to really work on this part of my life without sabotaging my efforts. I could go on and on, believe me I’m a gemini, but I’ll spare you the details and get to the point.

So here it goes, my journey to pink: Starting today I’ll be detoxifying my body doing The Master Cleanser for almost the entire summer, 100 days to be exact. I have my reasons which I will explain later or make up a page to explain. I will be keeping a detailed daily log of this and a weekly summary that I’ll broadcast on You Tube. I can’t believe I’m doing this. I know once I hit publish there’s no turning back that’s why I have to do this!! Maybe the fear of looking like a complete fool will keep me from sabotaging myself this time while I learn to trust myself again.
