Bloated

Ok, so I am starting to feel really really gross. This past week has been an absolute binge, and my stomach feels about ready to pop. Why two burgers at lunch. Why? God, don't I have any self control. Carbs carbs carbs sugar fat sugar and more carbs, not to mention all the cheese! It's like I'm addicted to food. I'm not even hungry and I'm already thinking about the next thing I'm going to put in my mouth. I really have a problem. Where's the detox? Where's the motivation? To put my feelings in a nutshell, I feel like throwing up in the office toilets, drinking a bucket of water, and hauling my lazy fat ass off to the gym where I can sweat for a couple of hours. I think I might just have to do some exercise before going for the colonic tomorrow.

About that, I don't think the way I've been eating (and drinking) this week has been at all helpful in preparing for what I'm about to undergo. I managed to persuade my boyfriend to find the clip from Jackass called "Santa Colonic" - just to see what I may expect tomorrow. I must admit, I did feel a little nervous when I heard his reactions to the tube being placed and then also when it was all done, the whole running to the toilet thing and putting his feet up on that natural squatting device was rather undignified - I hope it might be a less extreme experience for me. I knew what the foot rests were, because I had seen them advertised when I was doing research on detoxification, and you can even order them - just do a google search, they're quite easy to find.

So tomorrow's the big day. Unfortunately, I don't think I'll be able to post again until Monday after the deed has been done - but I'll type it out and submit it first thing... tomorrow is the official start of the detox so I need all the support I can get! I think the first thing I'm going to have to do is just get rid of all the temptations I have in the house - even if it means throwing stuff away or bringing it to work so it doesn't get wasted. I have my soup in the work fridge already, so there's no excuses come Monday lunch time. I'm also going to stock up on the Low GI Detox and Appetite Kickstart tabs from Clicks - I'm tempted to get the Perc Lemon Diet & Fat Buster pills, because they really worked the last time I made an effort to cleanse my system and lose weight. But you know, I think the only way that I'm going to really see results is by being very strict, and following a regular exercise regime.

Re. foot pads - I applied my 4th lot of patches last night, and amazingly enough - thre were some dry areas (I applied to the base of my heels). I also had a feeling of mental and physical vitality, which I thought might have been due to them, and also a few aches in my side which they mention on the packaging - however any detoxing that may have occured has probably been radically undone by all the junk I've eaten at work today. No more Biggles also! That's probably my number one rule... Biggles aka Tangerine is this place a few blocks down from our offices that you can order yummy things like Bacon & Avo or Egg & Mushroom Croissants (among other things) from..... ok - that's enough for one day! Going to get back to work - so that I can fully enjoy the rugby later. Go Boks!!!
