The milk cure: Day 0
This morning is the beginning of my first day on the milk cure. Last night I turned off all but red lights by around 8:00 and used my amber glasses to watch tv until about 10:00, at which time I turned off the screen, turned on some soothing relaxation sounds (

I do need some heavier coverage on one of the windows in my bedroom where a lot of bright light comes in from the street, however. I did not attempt to read the book I took to bed, but should have. My nighttime supplements included a cal-mag citrate, potassium gluconate, l-theanine, melatonin, and Power to Sleep, a combination pill of herbs, minerals, and omega-3's. Once asleep, I slept straight through until 7:15. Awoke without an alarm. Total sleep close to seven hours. I did not lay in bed after I woke up and I exposed myself to the brightest light possible shortly after awakening.
I am starting out the day with a Brita bottle of water and a cup of detox tea while my milk warms (you are supposed to drink it at room temp). Also taking a milk thistle supplement and some N-acetyl-cysteine to generate glutathione.
Morning weight: 175.2 (wishing I had detoxed a little more before beginning this...)
Body fat: 36.8
And finally, just for fun, morning song stuck in my head:

Milk Cure day 0.5: I don't know if it's the milk or just my shear determination to get focused, but I have had a pretty productive day, other than constant trips to the bathroom (a liquid diet goes through pretty fast...if I don't wake up lighter tomorrow I'll be amazed). I've had two doses of a blended detox tea and a cup of parsley tea, three full Brita bottles of water, plus about six glasses of milk. I'm try to keep below a gallon a day, mainly just to keep costs down. I can pick more up tomorrow, but I only have one jar from this particular farmer, so I'll have to pay my jar deposits to get more, which means an additional cost of $4/gallon in up-front investment (it's $3/half gallon plus a $2 jar deposit your first time, then just bring the jar back after that - not a bad deal overall, really).
My work has been focused, although I'm a little sleepy today for reasons that probably have nothing to do with milk. I've been out-of-sorts for a while so it's definitely the most productive I've been work- or school-wise in a few weeks. Everything else has been all about getting my house settled and my office organized. But it is time to start doing what I get paid to do! I'm about ready to call it a day for today, a little short of a full day's work, but I think tomorrow is going to be even better.
