It is DAY 26 of my 26 day detox and I am still alive! In fact, I feel better than I have in a very long time. It was NOT an easy task. It was 26 days full of cravings, emotions, determination, frustration, and exploration. I learned a lot of things about myself and my body. I … [Read more...]

26 Day Detox: Emotional Reactions
I went to bed last night feeling like crap physically and emotionally. I was thinking to myself "what the heck have I done?" It's one thing to choose into something like this, but another to make it public and have to be accountable, and who wants to screw up, right? Who would … [Read more...]
26 Day Detox: Food Elimination
The first phase of the detox is food elimination. This is what we will be eating for the next FOUR days. Beautiful isn't it. I don't think I have ever purchased so many veggies. Fitting them in my fridge was interesting. Too bad the garden isn't producing quite yet. I forgot … [Read more...]
