Out of seeming randomness, I had joined a three-day fruit cleanse. The rules: eat only fruit for three days. Several coworkers were talking about this and decided to do it so I, a peer-pressure sucker, decided to join them. I had no warning (I knew I should’ve taken more time to enjoy that barbequed pulled pork sandwich at lunch today!) so I started 5 minutes later after I ate three Reese’s peanut butter cups. (Always the best way to jump-start a diet!) I made sure to time my start so that I can finish before dinner on Friday night. (Kevin’s birthday is on Friday and I will be eating cake with him at dinnertime!) I figured that three days isn’t that long and I get to eat fruit, right?
Well, I’m only hours into it and already craving everything non-fruit related. This is simply a mind game. My mind leads straight to my stomach. So really, this might be considered a “three-day mind cleanse with fruit involved”.
To dampen my cravings tonight, I opted for some Naked juice thrown in the blender with some ice cubes and bananas. Not bad; actually, pretty tasty. Good enough for three days? No. I am already sick of dried apple slices and I love those! I am such a food loser.
Here goes nothing.
