Kidding, kidding. But I am suffering from a God-awful headache right now, no doubt a result of my sudden withdrawal from caffeine.
Let me back up. A co-worker of mine completed a 21-day cleanse, and she raved about it so much that I felt inclined to take on the slightly idiotic challenge. After all, I thought, what's the worst that could happen?
This headache, that's one thing.
Anyway, it's not a strict cleanse, like the kind where you can only drink a homemade concoction of maple syrup and salt. Or is it pepper? I don't know, but I DO know that this lady would not last one day on that program.
No, this cleanse allows eating, but it really limits what you eat. I can basically have all the fruits and veggies I desire, but that's about it. No bread. No soda. No chocolate. Lord, help me.
I also have to take a bunch of supplements and ingest self-made fruit smoothies. I'm not exactly Suzie Homemaker, so even blending frozen fruit can be a daunting task.
So today marks Day 1. I'm feeling ok, minus the throbbing headache and the brief bout of nausea this morning. My mood doesn't seem to be affected yet. But, it's still early.
