I decided to start the Master Cleansing Lemonade Diet which is a very drastic no eating for 10 days diet. I thought long and hard about it and I had a few reasons why I wanted to do it; physical and spiritual cleansing. I knew it was going to be hard, but I thought I would be able do it, turns out I could not.
I don't eat a lot throught the day, but my body is wired to eat at certain times during the day and I came to find out that if I don't eat when I'm suppose to eat my brain/body just won't let me off the hook. It became really had focus which was not good especially when I have to study for finals. So I had to stop the diet and of course the disappointment began shortly after. I felt like I had failed at something yet again..

With that said I have decided not to look at this as a failure... Maybe the diet just was not designed with me in mind... everyone is different and has their own strength as well as weaknesses. My goal was to achieve physical and spiritual cleansing and there are many ways to accomplish this I just have to find the right way for me.

Awwww.... I love that quote. Sometimes we're too hard on ourselves. Don't worry, like you said there are other ways to cleanse physically and spiritually. You'll find yours.
