I have been a slacker with my training but finally did a short workout. I know I need to make working out a priority in my life but I need to be realistic about what I can do. I want to push myself and do more heavier lifting but I need to just relax and do the work.

I was on the Master Cleanse program on August 2 and was on it for 4 days. I was to do it for 10 days but I read somewhere that you can do it for at least 3 days. I found it challenging to do and I may do another one. I think I was on it too brief of a period to get much of a detox effect.

I am now eating regular foods and maybe will try this again.

Clean and press: 2 x 5l/5r - 26 lb
One arm swings: 2x 2x(10l/10r) - 35 lb

Ever since I have returned from my vacation, I have been slacking off in my kettlebell workouts. I am glad at least that I keep a blog because knowing that I have to write something on a regular basis, keeps me from quitting.

I am going to Montreal for a conference this Wednesday and won't be back until Sunday. In my other blog I write about how my department is getting laid off at the end of July so I'll be back to looking for work. It sucks but hopefully I'll find something that I enjoy.

I also have been wanting to go on some sort of detox fast for several years now and I finally have decided that I will do it. I will start in August. I've looked into juice fasts and water fasts but I decided to try the Master Cleanse lemonade cleanse. I have read it helps people lose weight (although they tend to get half of it back usually), but I am more interested in the detox aspect. I don't think I have a particularly unhealthy diet but I would like to see for myself what happens.
