Not much to report today. I've only had two smoothies today. I had breakfast rather late this morning (9:30) and then just had a true day of rest. I listened to an audio book by Sheila Walsh (God Loves Broken People, read by Sheila Walsh) and took a nap. When I woke up, I took a shower and then had the second smoothie.
I just got home from my church's fund raiser, The Polynesian Festival. It was going strong when I left at a little after 9pm. We have a large contingent of Samoans in our church; also Filipinos and other island folk. Last year's Polynesian Festival raised around $3,000 for our church building fund. It will be interesting to find out how much was raised tonight.
They had a buffet at this fund raiser and I was tempted tonight to break this detox. The smells were marvelous and the Samoan ladies are fine cooks. I stayed far away from the buffet, but people were eating all around me and, oh, the aromas made me salivate! I did hang in there. I didn't fall off the wagon. I'm still in detox! I just kept thinking about the first four days of this program; how great it was to weigh and measure myself on the 5th day and realize I had lost weight and inches. No way I'm going to blow that.
Tomorrow is the start of Phase 3. I'm getting up early so that I can hit the grocery store before the crowds and get what I need. I think this phase is actually a full seven days. I'll have to see.
That is all for tonight, but I would like to leave you with these words: Be kind to yourself because you are worthy of your own admiration. (Queenisms: 101 Jolts of Inspiration, by Kathy Kinney and Cindy Ratzlaff)
Tally ho!
