Day 6

Day 6 day 6 glorious, horrible day 6. Yesterday was rough.  I really don't remember being this exhausted last time. I have only had enough energy to do the bare minimum.  Stupidly, I felt good yesterday when I woke up, so I decided to go to the gym...Big mistake, I was weak for the rest of the day.  There is a reason they say not to workout on the Mater Cleanse, your body has just enough energy to do it's normal day to day tasks.

Another problem I have been having that is unlike last time is a decrease in brain function.  I can't think straight, It is hard to form complete sentences sometimes or to focus on certain ideas for long enough to express them.  I have also developed a little bit of a lisp.  My husband has also been complaining of not being able to think as clearly as usual.  I don't think that lose of brain function is a good thing and I am thinking about ending this cleanse early.  I'm still not sure yet though, if it gets too bad I will end it, but I am taking it one day at a time.

Other than being really tired and mostly brain dead, everything else is going good, I am not feeling hungry, I lost 7 lbs and an inch and a half around my waist.  My acne is clearing up and my joints are not as stiff and achy as they have been (I usually wake up at night with low back and hip pain).

Today I am going to sit on the livingroom floor with a big glass of lemonade and fold laundry and play tea party with daughters praying that I can get through the next 5 days!

Happy Cleansing
