Day 3

Today I woke up and was down another 2 pounds.  I was pretty nauseaous when I woke up (not totally unusal because of allergy drainage).  I decided against the salt water flush and just drank a cup of detox tea before drinking my lemonade.  I have had a ton more energy today.  I took my allergy meds and have avoided the migraines today ;)  We had a fun day of doing things around the house, we made laundry soap and hair bows, then we went shopping and found some cute outfits.  I've found that it's important to make sure I don't let myself get hungry before making my drink.  Drinking a lemonade every 2 hours is the way to go.  I also supplement the tea when I get tired of the lemonade.  I didn't really start  losing energy until 9pm tonight which is a huge improvement from yesterday.  We're getting closer and closer to the half way mark.  I really want to succeed in this mission so I made myself a 10 day chart and each day I get to mark off a big red square...it's a mental thing for me (LOL).  I am so thankful for my husband who has been cheering me on and encourageing me every step of the way.  He doesn't really need to do this but he's right there doing it beside me.  I just can't describe what a blessing he is to me.  My sister has been great too.  She's doing her best to make sure that I continue to stick with it once she's gone...she leaves tomorrow :(  But I have faith that I will keep it up because I know I will be letting not just myself down but my husband and sister.  Plus the weight loss has been great too...it's coming off right in the stomach which for me is the hardest to lose.  Also, I have NO cravings or desire to drink any kind of soda.  I just feel lighter not drinking it :)
