I have officially surpassed the 5 day mark at which I caved last time I did this cleanse. I am now 55% done. It's amazing how long 5 days feels when you are restricting so much. I don't usually have a poor diet, but as soon as I "can't" have something, I want it x10.
Last night I ate, ate, ATE. I was insatiable.
Cleanse day 5
157.4
- 1st meal: pink lady apple and 1 T peanut butter
- 2nd meal: 2 boiled eggs, cheat 2 tsp veganaise, dill pickles
- 3rd meal: 1/4 c quinoa, cheat 1 tsp yumm sauce, nectarine
- 4th meal: SNACK ATTACK. Serving raw almonds, 1.5 servings jerky, 1/4 c banana-PB "ice cream"
- 5th meal: black beans, zucchini, pepper, onion, garlic, salsa and quinoa
- 6th meal: cheat 1 square of 72% cacao dark chocolate and 6 oz of soy milk
3 CHEATS! But hot damn, if that's what PMS looks like from now on, I'm all in. I tracked all of this on MyFitnessPal yesterday, I managed to consume exactly what I was allotted for the day (1200cal), including the calories I earned on our walk/run (508cal). I had a 5 miler with sloooooooow puppy dog. In his defense, there were a lot of hills in there. I also did 30 boy push ups and a 60 second plank. Today will be 35 and a 70 second plank.
Those little additions of pure fat didn't do me any good, I went over 4 grams on fat, 9 on protein and 10 on fiber.
Today, I am going to get my nails done and my eyebrows waxed, as a little reward for making it to the halfway point. I also will treat myself to a Passion tea from Starbucks (herbal, caffeine free, no sweetener).
Then, I will be avoiding all of you like the plague, because it's Saturday. People like to eat and drink on Saturdays. I will not be avoiding my sisters tomorrow though. Katie invited me to BBQ and is so kind to incorporate food that I can eat. I just have to focus on keeping the booze out of my mouth. Shouldn't be too bad, I mean, it will be day 7! I'll only have 3 more to go!
Cleanse Day 6
156.4
I will answer to you tomorrow, hopefully with less cheats.
GO DUCKS!!!
