Day 18

Yesterday's Cleanse was tough. I wasn't just getting hunger pangs, I was getting hunger pains. At 1:30 AM I still couldn't sleep with the discomfort, so I got up and ate a croissant. I was asleep 20 minutes later.  As usual, next day I couldn't stray too far from the bathroom due to the effects of the cleanse, The gym I attend closes at 5 PM on Saturdays, so I just went for a brisk walk once everything settled down. I stayed within my 1,400 calories for the day, but I'm still not seeing any change in my body. I did get the new second shipment of supplies, and had the new pina colada shakes for breakfast which I really enjoyed. I'm going to try to keep using the shakes for 2 meals per day, with one traditional meal because 30 days is not going to do it for me. But I need to add a bit more protein since the Free Calorie Counter indicates I'm not getting as much as I need. Being on this program is taking over my life and I'm not doing much besides going to the gym, doing housework, and spending time with my computer and coloring books.
