Detox

After a month of illness, and the doctors treating a variety of ailments from Ulcers to Gallstones, none of which I have, I decided to tell them to jam it and took myself off all the medications they had put me on and put myself on a detox diet. I have cut out wheat and dairy, all complex carbs and sugars. Only low fat protien, salads and lots of water. No coffee or soft drinks. I started this on Monday morning. Today is Thursday and the cravings have finally gone and I am feeling pretty damn good.

I know it is only 4 days but I noticed that my shirt was a bit looser, so I jumped on the scales and I have lost 2 kilos! (4.4pounds for my american friends) I walked out of the bathroom feeling pretty good. Master 8 looked up at me and said, "Mummy you’re looking skinnier" (Like 2 kios will make that much difference). I laughed and thanked him.

He then wrapped his arms around my waist and said "My fingers are touching mummy, you HAVE lost weight."

Now if that isn’t incentive to keep going I don’t know what is!

I committed to 2 weeks on this detox, and then I will follow a similar eating pattern after that but will have a break day once a week where I can have all of those yummy things I have been missing. Only 10 more days to go!

Just another little piece of me…..
