detox

so! i started detoxing yesterday, and managed to go the whole day when i decided to ask my friend to do it with me

and she was like “can we start tomorrow? i want some chips reeaaallly bad”

so i was like “sure!”

and gobbled down my last dosage of biscuits

but apart frmo the biscuits i was doing great! i was even showing the first detox symptoms (headache!)

so yeah, i fully started today

had a fruit salad with plain yoghurt for breakfast

snacked on fruit throughout the day

and came home from work to a big yummy bowl of vegetables and a bit of muesli (mueslis ok isnt it??? or ISNT it??)

drank plenty of water and green tea throughout the day too, so im feeling really good about the amount of willpower i have!

just gonna wait for tomorrow when i wake up feeling like im dead.

i actually felt like i was dying yesterday too, i think i picked the wrong time to start detoxing, because im catching the flu!!!!

whatever, im not going to let that stop me

so! about 3 months ago i did a detox, was supposed to keep you all posted about my progress in it.. but i forgot hah!

HOWEVER

i’l tell you now.. i did SO well! did it for about 10 days, just kept on eating fruit, veg, nuts and heaps of water and green tea.

i felt a m a z i n g! my skin was glowing and my mood was constantly happy!

however…... i thought it would make me change my ways and get rid of my unhealthy habits.. it really didnt!

now im back to my old self, eating crap that makes me feel yuck.

so im gonna have another go! my birthdays coming up so i dont see why not. i wanna feel good on my big day!

so yeah

im going to start it on saturday! i would just start it tomorrow but im gonna be drinking for a friends birthday on friday… so it would all be a waste of time!

and this time i’l try and remember to post and show how im doing, because that way hopefully i’ll stick to it!

RIGHT! my first REAL day of detoxing starts today!

i ‘started’ on friday at work, and did really well all day long with all the fresh foods and water etc…and then i got home… and ate some ice cream. and crisps. and crackers.

oops!

so then! i started again yesterday…

...and i ended up drinking a coffee…....

oops!

BUT

TODAY IS THE DAY

im doing so so well! (its been 7 hours since i woke up, and we got loads of free food at work today, like deep fried chicken, camenbert cheese and dips.. and i didnt touch a single piece!)

i think its just taken me a couple of days to get used to not being able to eat biscuits and drink coffee (im a self-confessed biscuitaholic, so this should be interesting)

im going with the whole fresh fruit and veg option, green tea, fresh lemon water, fish and nuts etc

i dunno why ive been finding it so hard the past couple of days! its actually a really nice change, i think the biggest obstacle is not drinking bottled (sugary) juices and coffee because i get them for free at work (i work in a pub.. so free chips and wedges are also going to be hard to resist, they taste so damn good!!! i get fizzy drinks for free too.. but i dont really drink them anyways. i also get free alcohol. i work in the worst detox place ever!!!!)

but yeah, fingers crossed!

i really want more energy and lovely skin, and everyone lately has been telling me i look like crap (no lie! they really have!!)

im gonna keep posting my progress on here as i think its going to help me stick to my detox and not end up eating ice cream and crisps

i also told everyone at work about my detox so they can keep an eye on what im consuming

oh! my mum went shopping today btw.. and got not only lots of lovely fruit and veg.. BUT LOTS OF BISCUITS AND CRISPS!!

all the best ones too

so yeah

i’l just sniff them or something and hopefully that should satisfy my cravings

im not really sure how long i want to do this for.. i’l start it off as a week, and see how i feel! might even stretch it to two weeks
