Hey everyone, so it's evening now and I thought it would be good to do an update on my Master Cleanse.

Today was the first day of the actual diet and I woke up and made my lemonade this morning. I packed all four bottles in my bag (I'm drinking 8 cups a day so I have four 20oz bottles that hold two cups each - each cup is 10oz). I also gave myself a drinking time table. I decided that I would drink one cup every two hours starting from 9am. So in other words, at 9 I drank half of one bottle and then at 11 I drank the rest and so on. I also set 9 individual alarms in my cell phone (8 alarms for each of the cups I was supposed to drink and 1 alarm for the Salt water flush - which I actually have to do in 10 minutes).

Early morning preparation

As far as difficulty goes, today was actually pretty easy. I didn't feel hungry at all. My greatest problem however was the impulse to eat because it felt odd just going the whole day without eating something. So mainly I felt a strong desire to eat out of habit rather than because I was actually hungry.

Hopefully the food cravings will go away soon. If they persist for the whole ten days they could pose quite a challenge.

On to the part everyone likes to hear.

I just weighed myself (because this is the first day I weighed myself tonight but as from tomorrow I will start weighing myself first thing in the morning.) and here are the results:

Sorry it's a bit fuzzy

In other news:

I couldn't sleep last night (again) so I did another drawing (again). Here it is.

Please note, unlike all the others, this particular drawing is NOT my original artwork. I was simply practising the pose and in the picture below the original is clearly visible. 

Also the original may be found here.

Again, this is not my original work, I drew the whole thing of course, but the only part of it that is my original composition/idea is the head. I take credit for that. I'm a natural hair snob so I gave my girlie curlies ^_^

Yeah. I know.

See what I was talking about?

Yay!! Nigerian girls are sexy too!!

Practice makes perfect.

I hope.

Cheers!! I'm off to do the Salt Water Flush and spend the next hour sitting on the toilet!!

Wish me luck =D

Update (9:06pm): Just so you know, I am still sitting on the toilet, and my ass is on fire. Yeah, this part is definitely not fun. :(

Update (9:14pm): Okay, this is NOT COOL. I am basically peeing from my ass. What the hell? *worried*
