Yesterday, was the girls dinner and getting our hair done and I did pretty good. I only had my 1 cocktail brought my own dinner however; I did get just a little munchy with some sausage balls I ate 5 (they were small) but I recorded everything and I did go over my calories by 63 calories but I felt my first real test in 5 days I did great.  Life has to go on.

The cleanse didn’t go to well yesterday. I added a coffee in the morning and yes I added a little cream and I am not sure if it was the coffee or the 2 cocktails the night before that gave me tummy trouble.

I heard some negative stuff about Advocare last night from a friend whos daughter was on advocare and she is an athlete she took advocare several years ago and was having some medical issues and they found out that her liver enzymes were way too high and the only change her daughter made was getting on Advocare and the Dr. told her to get off of Advocare and he tested her 2 weeks later and her liver enzymes were back to normal.  Hummmmmmmmmmm

This morning I did have some thoughts of stopping but NO that would be a big mistake because I am FAMOUS for quitting when it comes to my health – I am going to finish this cleanse to the end and I am going to prepare for my next phase which will be exercise and calorie control. I cannot quit on my health – I’ve don’t that soooo much and if I quit now it will be devastating to me mentally.

IF YOU DO WHAT YOU HAVE ALWAYS DONE YOU WILL BE WHAT YOU HAVE ALWAYS BEEN.

Another thought – The girls I was with last night just make a joke about how many time I fail on diets and I’m proud of the fact that I keep trying. We are getting our hair done on September 10th and I still want to be working on this because it will show them that I am serious – their health is a mess too but they don’t’ seem to care.  They want to go out to lunch next time and I won’t know where in advance so I will eat light for breakfast and go to the gym in the morning before we go and make a smart choice and I will be good – regardless if I can record the meal or not.

Life does go on and we have to manage in our own worlds and not quit – I CAN’T QUIT – have to keep telling myself that – because I really want to develop my new blog thefoursafter50 : I won’t be able to do that blog until I pull it together –
