I'll talk about Superbowl Sunday later but first I wanted to discuss yesterday. Which was DAY 5.
Dear friends, it was tough. Really tough.
I found myself yesterday hitting that wall I knew I would eventually hit.
I was crabby. I was tired. I was not motivated. I was crabby. I know I already said that but it was one of the things I was dreading most about this cleanse. I didn't want to be crabby. It wasn't fair to Dan (my hubs!), or anyone else really! I tried so hard to be positive, fun, not down...motivated... and not cranky and short...

We did get much done yesterday and I did follow my shake/food regiment which I'm proud of! We ordered the knobs for our kitchen cabinets and got some work done on them! But all in all I had a rough time getting through the day. I wasn't excited about my shakes...not my snacks and I really just wanted to be done with the whole thing. I knew it was going to happen once the weekend came.
The other part that was hard was that we decided to go out with friends last night. It was my choice. I had to get out of the house and just do something normal...but man, it wasn't pretty.
My dinner, my one meal of the day was going to be eaten out, and after much consideration we chose a restaurant that had sushi on the menu. So I had a vegetarian roll and a cup of miso soup. It was delish and I felt satisfied! The hardest part wasn't the meal itself it was the not being able to enjoy a cocktail with dinner!
When I told D I was going to go out last night, she said to drink the bubble water...so that's what I did with dinner too!
We met with friends at a bar to watch a band, which was great and all, but the band was a like a 70-80's cover rock band, that only reminded me of my Mom..and a bit of my Dad (also not the greatest memories..), and I couldn't enjoy any adult beverages with my friends.
It. was. rough. - To say the least...
It wasn't the best night of my life, but I can say that I made it through the whole night sticking with my bubble water and not having even a sip of alcohol! That in itself was an accomplishment for me!
The only other problem was we didn't get to bed until almost 2a.m. and that seriously messed with my hunger pains! When we got home I had a bit of a low blood sugar thing going on so I had some crackers with peanut butter. I just had to do it. I didn't think it was going to ruin it all...
So all in all, the weekend has not been ideal, however, I have to tell myself this is not going to be my normal lifestyle forever...it's only 9 days and I can do this! I just have to finish I'm so close!
So back to Superbowl Sunday!
Come back to visit tomorrow to find out how I did today! My schedule so far is a bit off, and I'm going to have a bit of a cheat day...not in the chicken wings...dips..and soda pop way of cheating though!
I do get to hang out with this little bundle of sweetness below so I'm not all that worried!
Have a great Superbowl Sunday!
