Detox Horror

Filed under: General — 40ish @ 11:10 am

Ugh! I decided that about now might be a good time to go on a detox program. Well, the program was supposed to last for two weeks… I lasted 5 whole days! And, it was awful - though I did feel good.

It’s difficult to eat all natural type stuff all of the time. A simple shopping expedition becomes a label reading nightmare. I just can’t come at tofu, and I still couldn’t find any goat’s cheese anywhere, and I just couldn’t stand ONE more day of natural raw muesli with soy milk for breakfast. Bleh!! I never have been a cereal lover, and the stuff was like waking up to a bowl of muck first thing in the morning. Not good! Then again, it made the rest of the stuff look appetizing throughout the day.

So, I got to five whole days, and then it was Saturday. The weather here was hot and sunny. I had a sudden urge to eat prawns and oysters, and sip champagne by the pool. Green tea and hommus on a slice of wholemeal bread paled by comparison.

And so it was…. I couldn’t resist. I am weak, but dammit those prawns tasted wonderful :) The first bit of meat I’d eaten in 5 days… Beautiful!

I think I’ll dump the green tea for coffee too….
