I looked at that and (edit; first thought!) was like "Is that my photo? That looks like my counter. WTF?"

Don't have a final day update just yet. But I want to interject that, as awesome as this cleanse has been, ending on tax day is tough. I've been up late for several days and then up early, early this morning just trying to wrangle close enough estimates for an extension without penalties and I estimate I may drink my bodyweight in beer, caffeine, wine, (likely tequila later) and who knows what before I can even consider a sweet treat this evening. Rough ending to this cleanse!0

I don't have any weight gain or loss goals but I did hit 90 lb bench for reps and doubled my chin-up PR.0

Day 33: McConnell's olive oil and toasted almond.
I weight just about the same as when I started, but I increased my calories right about the start of the challenge and started a new lifting program. I'm going to wait a few more weeks to see if I actually overshot my calorie goal and need to readjust to lose again.0 -
