the rules

At sunset I started my detox regimen, which begins with a week of no's--no alcohol, no coffee, no sugar, no dairy, no meat, no wheat. But a resounding yes to flaxseed, flaxseed oil, milk thistle, and most of all, fruits and vegetables. Fruit contains natural sugars, but I'm okay with that.

This week will be followed by a simpler four-day juice fast. And after that, I hope to maintain a relatively "clean" diet: no processed foods, a preponderance of organic vegetables and fruit, a limited amount of organic animal products, and whole wheat in place of refined flour, with the occasional indulgence like the expense-account steakhouse dinner I already denied myself tonight, and which I hear was AMAZING.

But all in all, I'm feeling more chipper than rueful. I do love a new project. We'll see how I feel on Day 4.

Good Luck! That sounds ambitious.

Thank you, izzy's mama! I'm glad I'm doing this now--there's lots to snack on, in terms of fresh fruit. I think it'd be much harder to do in the winter.
