Today started off with sweet time in my Bible study in Isaiah 43 and 61, which my soul really needed this today. I was a bit nervous starting this first all liquids day, but praise Jesus!, it went really well. I really wasn't hungry at all, which was a blessing. Supper was the hardest time for me, but I quickly put the food up after the meal (I usually leave it out for the guys to browse on later) and scraped the kids' plates as soon as they were done to avoid the urge to nibble. But a morning green smoothie, lots of water, juice (Kroger had some of Boathouse Farm's juices, including their kale/spinach/celery/lemon juice, on sale for BOGO), and some broth got me through the day. I even survived the ice cream social this evening - most of the campus knows I'm watching my sugar, so there was no question as to why I just had water.
As for detox symptoms, they've been very minimal today. Slight headache, but I'm guessing it's more from lack of caffeine, a bit of light-headedness when I got up too quick, and I was a bit tired by early afternoon, but other than that, it was a good day and I'm actually struggling to wind down tonight. I forgot how I will eventually move to a bit of less sleep as these three weeks move on.
Speaking of sleep, I need to ensure our guys are going to get some tonight, so adios!
