DAY 196: NMP: April!

I’m totally getting into having a New Monthly Project each month.

February was Date Month. March was Save Money Month. (Don’t ask about my taxes… my dad was no help. As of now, I’m still in the red.)

For April, I’m looking to improve my health. Last week I stepped on the scale for the first time in many a moon, and I was shocked to see that I have gained most of my pre-Master Cleanse weight back.

Now, I know the M.C. isn’t supposed to be used as a method of weight loss. It’s supposed to kick your ass in to eating healthier. And I would say that ever since doing the M.C. my eating habits have changed for the better. I cook for myself all the time now. I’ve added a lot more fruits and vegetables to my diet.

But recently, I’ve started getting careless about my junk food intake. Why just this morning, to make up for being late to work, I bought a bag of Recess Peanut Butter Cups for me and my my co-worker (the one I actually like) to share. I know it may not seem like a lot, but it’s the little stuff that starts to add up.

So, in order to nip this junk food junk in the bud, I’ve decided to go on the Master Cleanse again. I know, I know… I can hardly believe it myself. I promised myself I would never put my body through all that shitting again. But, I always love a good challenge and it will give me something to blog about.

The last time I did Le Cleanse, it was for 10 days. This time, I’m steppin’ it up and aiming for a 30 day shitfest. My last meal is going to be this Wednesday with Jeffrey, Jeannie and A. Rod. After that, it’s back to lemon juice, maple syrup, and cayenne pepper.

Mmmmm…. I’m getting thirsty already.

In related news, my friend Cody has started a new weight loss blog. He’s hilarious and you should check it out. I’ve listed him under my “Blog Friends,” or you can just click here for the link.
