no food for me

i am starting to slack with this blogging, i see. but, things at work have been a little crazy. i haven't even had a chance to report about last weekend. i didn't even have a chance to blog about my plans for the weekend so i could report on them later.

last weekend, i got a bug about doing a fasting body cleanse. so, i bought a book and read it and just did it. thank you to my wifey who: helped take care of me, let me lay around relatively undisturbed and fetched a few things from the store for me.

in all the books you read about cleanses and stuff it always says that you will have flu-like symptoms, may have aches and pains, sore throat, runny nose etc. and not to worry, it will pass. well, i wanted to worry because this whole thing is essentially giving yourself the flu. i had a queasy stomach, a 5day headache, sore throat, mucous-y nose-mouth-throat-chest, and very very very sore muscles. so if you are going to do one of these things, it really is a challenge you need to be mentally prepared for.

now i'm feeling better. i can't really say if the cleanse did really amazing things. it did get me feeling a bit healthier and now i'm back to eating a bit healthier too. i haven't had any coffee or soda since then either and i'm drinking a lot more water. so we'll see how long i can keep this up. i really miss my coffee in the morning.
