A 7 Day Success

This cleanse has been a real eye opener and adventure. I am so grateful for the 7 days I was able to cleanse and release.

By this day I was crying and very emotional and lars was done seeing me miserable.

I am so grateful to be able to listen to my body and give myself the permission to stop. Doing this cleanse I lost ten pounds or more I haven't weighed yet.

I am glad to know what to expect and I am excited to go again when the time is right.

Thanks for all the support.

Day 4 Cleanse

If the cleanse is good for anything it is definitely good for losing weight.  As you could tell from my weigh-in. 

I mainly have my bowels movements in the morning and then through the rest of the day I just drink lemonade and pee a lot. We have to track how much we poo because that is how we know our body is cleansing. 

I haven't been sleeping the greatest and I know it's because of the herbal laxative we have to take before bed. I am hoping that passes. 

Amanda - the lemon cleanse consists of a drink made of fresh lemon juice, maple syrup, cayenne pepper and good water. I take a herb laxative or sea salt broth in the morning and an herb laxative at night.  I drink about 6-7 glasses a day of it and it goes for ten days. 

For me I would like it to be a cleanse for my colon and such but I am more looking for an internal emotional/mental cleanse. I have been meditating and doing affirmations to help heal whatever is making me angry  This cleanse can be used for so many purposes it is really a personal endeavor. 

My little kikster who is so much like me has been kind of feeding off my angry energy.  We have been butting heads and hate to say it yelling to be heard with one another. I would love to put her on this with me. 

Anywho this is my report so far ;-)

Day 1 of Lemon Cleanse

And I have to be tempted by these!!! I did not give in but I will save them lol

Master Cleanse Reading Part 3

Chapter 6: The Master Cleanse

This chapter takes you fully through the cleanse. Tom Woloshyn explains the benefits of the cleanse, what you will need, why those items were chosen, the steps to proceed each day, side affects and much more. The 51 pages of this chapter is the complete instruction of how to do the cleanse.

Passages that stood out to me:

"Do not let others discourage you." pg 61

". . . .as if you could learn how to swim by coughing others from the sidelines rather than plunging into the water yourself with a good instructor nearby." pg 62

"Do not let others sabotage your efforts." pg 62

When I first learned of the Master Cleanse, which was a year or two ago, I was excited about it. I went out bought the book. Only read what I needed not the entire book. And was going to see how this Master Cleanse would benefit my life. In preparing for this I kept my husband in the loop and although I love him with all of my being he was a nay sayer. Having to fight for it and convince someone else is exhausting and I ended my Master Cleanse Journey.

So these comments really hit me because truly who you bring on this healing cleansing journey will make or break you.

In explaining the ingredient Tom Woloshyn says, "get the best; you deserve it." pg 63 What I see, "Don't half-ass it." You can either follow the guideline to a better you or only go part way. YOU DESERVE THE BEST!

"Get out of your own way. Allow yourself to heal, and then accept it as a gift!" pg 90

Lastly, "WAEFFTI - When All Else Fails, Follow The Instructions.". He puts them there as plain as can be.

Master Cleanse Reading Part 2

Chapter five is kind of a long one as it talks of how the cleanse works for all aspects of your body. Mental, physical and emotional. Passages that stood out to me:

"stress is a condition that starts in the conscious mind and almost always manifests as a feeling in the body." pg 42

"In the physical body, the unconscious state, if left unchecked for too long, will create the experience of a dis-ease or discomfort, functioning much like an alarm to alert the mind and wake it up to take correction action." pg 42-43

I have come to believe these statement fully as I have experienced my bad feelings turning into something more. It is always good to check in with yourself.

"Therefore, it is vital that you take care where you put your mind, and what you choose to expose it to." pg45

"It becomes clear that the thoughts we think affect us and the thoughts we share with others can have a long and lasting impact." pg 47

Tom Woloshyn recommends a book called You Can Heal Your Life by Louise L Hay and says this of her book, "what is so great about this tool is that we can change ourselves at the very core of our being if we choose to, because we have Free Will." pg 50

"Another by product of the cleanse is feeling more relaxed and calm." pg 53

Since having kids I have kind of felt like a time bomb ready to blow always ticking inside. Or maybe that's just at this moment lol

"With a healthy body, your mind will find peace and will start to open on a higher spiritual level, and other aspects of your life will continue to change and evolve as well." pg 58

Overall in reading this chapter it confirms to me that I am taking the right steps to better my mind, body and spirit as it list the affects and outcomes of doing a cleanse.

I got the books by Louise Hay and look forward to clearing the negativity on my inner soul and learning how to more at peace with myself. Just typing that it sounds cheesy but I really feel it and I need to break free of it.

Getting On Track

I weighed myself the other day and the magic number came to 161. Yes I have let myself go. I have stopped caring and stopped trying. I didn't even weigh myself every other day like I usually do. It has gotten ugly! My body has been aching and uncomfortable. Me headaches have been nightly and we won't even touch my moods. It is time to take action, I shouldn't have even gotten to this point, and clean up the mess. Pushing past the standstill, past the backwards motion and run forward bringing on the healthier rejuvenated body that I KNOW is inside fighting to get out.

I have decided to devote myself to the Complete Master Cleanse by Tom Woloshyn. Mostly because I feel Munich needs to be cleansed and I am getting some dry spots that I want to be gone. They are spreading on my body and I don't know exactly if my body is allergic to something or if there is something going on inside.

Right now I am reading the book cover to cover and I will probably read it a second time to fully prepare and embrace the guidance in it. There is so much factual information that it will take two times through to read.

I have read through chapter 1 to a fourth of chapter 5. So far the words that have stood out to me are:

"I strongly support you in achieving your goals." pg 8

I really like having the feeling of support and these words are so strengthening that I will post them in my bathroom.

"I want to be healthier. I want to be happier, and I want to be more fulfilled." pg 9

This is a mantra that Tom Woloshyn would say to himself when before his life changed and progressed for the better. Instead of the word 'want' I would put 'am'. If you keep saying 'want' that's all you will ever do is want.

"Nothing venture, nothing gained." pg 9

Self explanatory. So I plan on venturing to the fullest!!!

"We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them." Albert Einstein pg 26

The majority of the first chapters are talking about his introduction to the Master Cleanse, what doctors do to contribute to the problem instead of dissolve it and now talking about the different types of food and how your body reacts to it. He doesn't speak all bad about doctors because there are some instances where they are needed.

A lot of the information is stuff I have heard through different sources but it doesn't hurt to learn it again and understand the severity of it.

Sidenote: I started reading this book last Thursday so I have gotten a bit farther in the book and have been journaling my thoughts and feelings about it.

I will be starting the cleanse officially on Saturday and will be doing a smoothie diet to prepare my body starting today. I am excited and I am ready to make my physical, emotional, spiritual, and mental body healthier and happier.

Home again home again jiggity jig

Coming home was a bit of a throw back. I got right back into the routine of being mother and wife and taking care of the house. I miss the solitude the past week had. Lol

This whole week (so far) I have stayed home, besides taking kids to school, and stuck to myself. I took care of the animals and kept the house clean. I just didn't feel like putting on a happy face so that others would be happy. Mostly I just don't want to deal with people.

No excitement from this cowgirl. Sorry ladies and gents but I do have a question for you all and I would appreciate an honest answer.

What gives you excitement to keep you going through this life?

Sunday Stealing

Today we ripped off a blogger named Mejisfrom the blogSouthern Discomfort. She explains the she was tagged for the meme from Miss Angie over at My So-Called Chaos.

Being home, Power, Hair

* being home has been nice except for the wind and the coldness that floats in our home morning and night. it was nice being in a place that had heaters that worked lol

* trying to tackle all the projects I want to do is a bit overwhelming. can't help but ask, where do I begin? Haha it will all work itself out and I am excited.

* before coming home I saw my BFF and of course she makes all my emotions come out. one being my crying. I am not happy with my hair. I don't know if it is just too short and I wasn't ready for that or I just think it is hideously fugly. I will pull it back everyday until it gets longer to do something with it.

* which brings me to power. that is another reason I am a little upset and disappointed. I felt with my long hair that I had some type of power. I felt a certain sexy/sexual power that made me feel beautiful and different. Oh well you can't win them all

* my weight still ranges from150-160 which is ok except for all the weight is showing up on my tummy. not to excited about that

* debating on doing a full fledge 10-12 lemon cleanse from the book "The Complete Master Cleanse" it's a whole lot of commitment

Exercise

I am going to start recording all my exercises so I can strive to do some type of workout.

I am going to start gardening which is a workout in itself.

Today:

Walk 35 minutes

Dance

Saturday 9

Welcome toSaturday: 9. What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so-to-speak. We encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love memes, however, and here is today's meme!

Randoms

* The weather has been so beautiful and it has given our family a chance to get outside and make some noise. We raked cleaned the chicken coop and we are getting ready to garden.

* We are getting some goats from a guy at my hubby's work who is moving out of state. I am so pumped to build our little farm that words cannot even describe it. I talked to the guy the other night to ask some questions and I guess he told some people at work how sexy my voice was. It made my day.

* My hubby and I like to joke about getting a 1-800 number and making mucho amounts of money with my voice

* My weight has been steadily in the 150's and I am ok with that because I am a freaking sexy beast. I can say that I would like to be smaller but I am comfortable and happy with where I am.

Sunday Stealing

Thanks for helping us launch WTIT on facebook...

We have just set up WTIT Tape Radio's facebook
page. If you'd like to see what we're up to onfacebook, just say you like our page. Simplyclick here and hit "like"! Thanks! We're not too proud to beg. Again, thanks for all of you who helped out last week! Peace! Here's today'sStealing...

Welcome back to Sunday Stealing which originated on WTIT: The Blog authored by Bud Weiser. Here we will steal all types of memes from every corner of the blogosphere. Our promise to you is that we will work hard to find the most interesting and intelligent memes. You may have heard of the expression, "honor amongst thieves". In that age-old tradition, we also have our rules. First, we always credit the blog that we stole it from and we will "fess up" to the blog owner where we stole the meme. We also provide a link to the victim's post. (It's our way of saying "Thanks!") We do sometimes edit the original meme, usually to make it more relevant to our global players, to challenge our players, sometimes to select that meme's best questions, or simply to make it less repetitive from either this new meme or recently asked questions from a prior featured meme. Let's go!!!

Is it me, or is this pic creepy?

Today we ripped off a blogger named Fridge from the blogBuzzing Fridge. Buzzing Fridge's last post was in 2010. He states he got it from Toast. Since we've got Toast's pick (Fridge never shared one) we thought that we'd post it. Toast has had a blog since 2003, but when he reinvents it, he deletes his archives. So we have no idea where Toast got it. It's 50 questions, so we will do it in three parts. Had we had found the old blog, we would known where Toast got it from. But, it was probably stolen there as well. So, of course, that will be as far as we go. Tracing back our theft's thieves might take some time. Link back to us atSunday Stealing!
