Day 4

Today was a bad one. This morning Michelle fainted while getting ready for work. She passed out in the hallway which made a big sound as her head hit the floor. Upon hearing it I jumped awake, flew out of bed and ran to her side. I patted her face to wake her up and she was confused as to how she got on the floor. Yesterday she only drank one of her six drinks because the taste was getting to her and it made her blood sugar drop a ton. I made her call in sick from work just in case it wasn't over. I don't need my wife passing out at the wheel or at work on the cement floor (fortunately our hall way here is carpeted). All day she's felt tired and dizzy when she walks. I made her drink four of her drinks today and gave her extra maple syrup to increase her blood sugar level. It was a very scary morning for me. I've never seen anyone faint and to have it be my wife and to wake up from the sound of her head hitting the floor was not an experience I'd like to repeat. She's starting to question whether she should continue on the cleanse. I told her I support her quitting after this morning's incident but she wants to wait until tomorrow to see how she feels. For me today was pretty good. I'm feeling a lot more energized and have less hunger or cravings. Michelle has lost 7 pounds now and I have lost 11. We'll see what tomorrow brings. For now Michelle is lying in bed and I am about to join her so we can watch The Shawshank Redemption on my iPod. Goodnight friends.
