Master Cleanse: Aside!

Forgot to say - went to the dentist today: NO CAVITIES!

Hell to the yes.

Master Cleanse: Day 2.5

Got to sleep at 1 AM last night (this morning). Not good. Had to wake up at 6 today to prepare for top-down salt water enema. Woke at 7 instead, angry that I had to choke down more nasty salt water and juice more lemons (don't worry about me losing muscle tone - all that juicing has given me strong forearms!) and pour more of that expensive organic maple syrup down my gullet.

I was tired, sleepy, nauseous and annoyed. But I perservered and drank the stupid salty water and made the old concoction. Then took a shower, laid down for a few, got dressed and... waited. Noooo movement in the bowel region. None. Great - it was moving towards 8:25... I'd have to leave my apt soon, but didn't want to be stuck in the subway with bowel pains. No choice - I couldn't be late to work b/c I had a 10:30 dentist appt. So I left. Got halfway to the subway stop before realizing I forgot the stupid lemon concoction. Quickly went over the options: A) Screw it and try to find an alternative around work. Cons: There's no juicer at the office and no real grocery store, either. B) Screw it and screw the rest of the diet. I hated it this morning anyway. Cons: I would be just giving up on something I really wanted to follow through on. C) Go back to my apt and grab the 2L jug. I chose C.

Got to work at 9:15. Not too bad. But... still haven't moved down there. Am a little worried. Discussed situation with C, my friend who's on it with me. Maybe I'll try laxative tea at night to help things in the morning. Maybe more water. Stay more hydrated during the day.

Then... rumbling. Finally! Just in time for the dentist. How awful would it be to have to go when some dental assistant has her hands in your mouth?? Phew.
