loren and i are doing a 10 day cleanse to rid our bodies of terrible toxins that have infested our insides. Its called The Master Cleanse. To put it simply, everyday instead of eating you drink a potion you’ve concocted consisting of organic lemons, organic grade B pure maple syrup, water and cayenne pepper. the mixture tastes great (i put a little too much cayenne in my first batch) so, so far so good. some people do this cleanse to lose weight, im doing it to clean out my insides. im taking back control of my body from the corporations who stole it. ive already been losing a lot of weight naturally because of the changes i’ve made in foods and drinks…i expect to come out of this cleanse being even more of a food snob. hope society can handle it!

Almost to the End of Day One:

we just finished our first salt water bath and it was a STRUGGLE to get down! warm salt water has been my nemesis ever since i was a little kid when my ma told me to “rinse with warm salt water” whenever i had a sore throat. as i struggled to get down the warm salt water, i felt like i was going to puke. everywhere. 45 mins from now im going to have my first “elimination”. wish me luck!

i did feel hungry at different times throughout the day, but its definitely not as hard as you may think. the juice you drink when you’re hungry actually does a really good job distracting your tummy. if i can manage to keep myself busy and not think about food or any vices that i may have, this is going to be a piece of cake. luckily, i do have plenty of things to keep me busy.

what im looking forward to most is starting over with food. once my insides have been cleaned, im going to put only good things into it. loren and i are both committed to being 100% vegetarian. it wont be hard, the only meat we eat now is fish and turkey (for our turkey sandwiches). luckily tofurkey exists for the turkey sandwich addicts like myself. im looking forward to my first tofurkey sandwich.
