Lemon Cleanse Day Two

Today's lemon cleanse didn't go so well. I woke up feeling really light headed and shakey. I slowly got ready, lying down every few minutes or so. I mixed a drink and started to sip it, but each swallow made me gag a little. It just gave me the shivers. Then I just swallowed a few last gulps and walked out the door for class. I got down three floors taking it slow because I was still feeling pretty light headed. I got outside and knew I was going to throw up soon. I sat down on a bench right outside my building after deciding that running back up stairs to my bathroom would probably make it worse. I decided to lie on the grass for a sec, but soon after I lied down I sat up and threw up on the grass. Gross gross gross. I hate throwing up. I didn't think I'd throw anything up anyways since I hadn't had solid food since Sunday night, but I did throw up lemonade. Ugh. Then a few seconds later my friend Rob walked out of the building and made sure I was okay before heading to class. I felt better after I threw up, but thinking about the drink made me sick. So after Calculus I went to the Union and bought a couple rolls and a few saltine crackers and some apple juice. I ate very slowly and my stomach handled it fine. Then a couple hours later, right before Sign Language, I decided I was starving so I got another couple of rolls and crackers and apple juice. I felt a little weird after eating that round. So I drank regular water for a while and went to the fieldhouse with Kylie and Kristen and pumped some iron :) and they convinced me to keep going with the cleanse. When we got back I drank a whole glass without feeling too grossed out. This time I put a little less lemon and a little more syrup. I just drank another glassful and am feeling pretty good. Michelle said she felt shakey like that in the mornings too so I should have a class premade by my bed and try to just drink it down right when I wake up. And I'm going to drink until I get in bed. So yep. I'm feeling pretty good. Yes, I ate food today, but I feel okay about it. And I didn't even really crave food or junk like I usually do when I'm trying to eat healthier or what not. They say the 3rd day is hardest, but since I ate today, maybe the 4th day will be hardest. I can take it though. Oh yeah, I thought I was supposed to drink only this lemonade for 10 days then work back into solid food, but Michelle thinks maybe it's only 7 days, then apple and orange juice day 8 and 9, then small amounts of solids day 10. That would be wonderful. I'll look it up. Goodnight!
