Today I begin the Master Cleanse!

When you get on a roll it's fucking damn near impossible to stop drinking for any real period of time... I normally have to drink at least once or twice a week. Now, I don't drink everyday & shit, but it's still hard to go more than 5 days without drinking.
 
For a non-smoker, I can tell you having a smoking girlfriend is like sticking your tongue in an ashtray. So I'm pretty sure that a smoker who quits has better taste sense with the ashtray-mouth being gone.

Also on my journey of healthy lungs, it does not help that everyone AROUND me smokes...+ i live in Houston so if i step outside and take a deep breath, I'm probably gonna get some unknown cancer or possibly AIDS...
 
Allright, Day 2 in the can. I haven't smoked in days either, and I don't plan to ever again. This cleanse is sort of my system shock, my reset, back to where I should be in the first place. Cigarettes are worthless, and I will be done with them once and for all.

Hunger still hasn't set in! The lemonade and tea I've been drinking seem to curb that, and even though my roommates made pork chops for dinner last night, and Eggs Benedict tonight, it didn't even phase me. Though I did call them assholes for cooking food right in my face ;)

10 days seems a bit much, but if I make it a full 72 hours, I think I've done my job and started my year off right.

Hmmm, I wonder what my first meal will be...
 
when i was at school, the whole not-eating-that-often thing was usually just how it went, since the cafeteria was only open so late (and the food was generally disgusting), the deli closed really early and wasn't open on the weekends, and i'd only have so much money to spend on places around town. i did start to overindulge when i went back last august, eating more ice cream than i used to and i did gain a few pounds, but i think that was more because i started birth control pills over the summer. my metabolism has always been really good.

i did gorge myself when i first got home, and i've never really been able to stick to goals i set for myself - dieting, exercising - but lately i noticed that i've been drinking a lot more water and eating a lot less, so hopefully that'll help things.

Yeah, that's a bummer. Well, if you quit, at least you won't be drawing hot smoke directly into your lungs... I suppose that's something.
 
oh derek, its just american new-age-organic-health-nut silliness. keep smoking and drinking whiskey, you'll be fine. donning of kilts and frequent exclamations of, "Cunt!" woulndt hurt either :)
 
don't listen to her brooks, be one with your digestive system, total zen.

what need have I for this, what need have I for that, I am dancing at the feet of my Lord, all is bliss, all is bliss.
