Post-Master Cleanse Update

So it's been about a week since I stopped the Master Cleanse and resumed eating normal foods. Overall, I would characterize my eating habits and healthier and more restrained than they were before the cleanse. If I were to make a quick walk to my local health food store part of my routine (maybe every third day or something), I could easily keep it up. The healthy pizza I made wasn't very good. I don't regret making it but I'm not going to eat the rest of it...such a waste. And it's become a bit easier for me to say "no" to certain foods, although I had a Ferro Rocher today at work. I have resumed drinking coffee, but I've been using a stevia sweetener and/or whatever cancer-causing-imitation sugar is available and I haven't been drinking it so impulsively. If I ask myself "another cup or not another cup?" I consider myself done for the day.

On a related note, I intend to stop at a convenience store on the way home from work today and purchase an ice cold can of Coca-Cola. I've been a bit under the weather the past few days, which was certainly caused by my failure to replenish my guy flora combined with my making kissy-face with someone at a dance club on Saturday night, and nothing sounds better than a soothing, refreshing flow of dark, tingly Coke caressing my sore, tired throat. I'm definitely going to do it. But I'll be sure to hit the gym this weekend if I'm still not feeling sick. I actually haven't gained back any of the weight that I lost (which was about 12 pounds or so) and I feel really good about that. I have yet to indulge in any fast food yet but I'm sure I will soon. We'll see.
