Not in the Britney Spears/Amy Winehouse kind of way, but still...
Everywhere I look lately it seems like someone is selling some kind of Colon Cleanse products, but I was interested in a "natural" cleansing. So, Don and I did a little research (actually DON did the research), and we decided on a 21-day program. I just started this morning, and let me say... IT'S DISGUSTING. Everything just smells so HEALTHY. Remember how the old Swiss Farms Salad place used to smell like vitamins when you first walked in (b/c they sold all those vitamins)??? That's how this stuff smells. YUK!
So, I "get" to have 2-3 "shakes" a day, which consist of some nutritional powder, flax seed oil, fruit, and ice/water. I had my first one today... once I got past the smell, I did okay. I can also have all the fruits and vegetables I want for the first 10 days (I'm supposed to eat double the vegetables than the fruits). Then starting day 11, I can add fish and limited organic chicken/turkey.
I can also drink unlimited amounts of green tea. Which I like. But which is NOT coffee.
This does NOT make me happy! :(
Have I talked all of you into trying it? Even with all my whining, I am really excited about trying this. I am interested to see if it really DOES clear up my skin, and if it really DOES make me feel less sluggish/tired. I'll let you know...
In the meantime, anyone have any coffee that I can just smell??? I'd appreciate it!
Welcome!

I detoxed one time, and got the sickest I've ever been in my life! That's the truth. My system is on such a fine balance that anything too healthy (I guess) throws me completely off whack! I've given up sugar, because mine is consistently a little too high. That's been an uphill battle for me, because I LOVE my sweets!
Ooo..sorry. I won't tell you what kind of yummy creamer I just bought for fall. Let me know how it goes. I could definitely use some de-sluggishizing (or whatever).
Wow! You'll have to keep us updated on how you're doing. And as Sis #2 (you being #1, and me, #3) said about the creamer, I won't tell you what I'm making for dinner tomorrow. But seriously, I've always thought about doing a detox, so let me know how it goes.
