Day 2 - Life happens

We are sooooo funny. We (my husband and I) are really apprehensive about this cleanse -- not in doing it but what it may cause. If the bowels are going to be cleaned - that probably says we need to stay home. Life keeps scheduling things --dentist, temple (gotta take advantage of that when the time is right) -- just normal life!!! So -- the plan is now still next week --- but in the middle of the week instead of good ole Monday. Why am I even mentioning this -- it's only a 2-day delay? I guess to me it seems like a greater delay because if I'd have been doing this alone, I'd be doing it now! tee hee

I know I did some little thing for exercise but can't remember what it was -- very impressive to the body, too, I'm sure.

The eating went rather well, meaning good self-control. Had to take "healthy" treats to Kindergarten and used the "Cookies For Dinner" with fruit on top and of course, I ate some of the extras. The body does feels good after eating it though. (At the site, the book is under products.)

And the meal planning or what we are going to be eating after the cleanse thing --- surely occupies the thoughts but nothing yet.

A really neat thing, though, is my husband is even watching what he eats and when -- and I know he's feeling what his body does with certain foods. Fun to watch.

All happens when it should and maybe the things we are learning today and tomorrow and the next day are needed before we really begin. One of those things is to identify "denial". It is soooo hard to admit one has a dysfunctioning colon and constipation when one is having more than one bowel movement a day. But it's been said, the most common cause of illness is constipation and that word has a much different meaning to the world than to those who teach about good health. Denial is indeed present in our house - even though blood pressure is high, acid reflux is going on, the nose is always having to be blown, and let see, what else is there.........? lol
