It’s been two years since I last detoxed and
frankly, I was ready so don’t look for any recipes this next week. I’m already
at Day 11 – the final day.
Day 8 remained the toughest day of all with
nothing but liquids. Many people say it’s spiritual. I was glad to survive it because
last time it was sheer torture. This time around?... unexpectedly easy. In fact, I feel fantastic.
They say the belly rules the mind but I’m
not so sure. I’m convinced that 90% of this was mental.
I didn’t miss the wine, the bread or the
sweets this time. What I missed the most was cooking and sharing my table with friends.This
past week has been a solitary existence and food becomes just another meal
unless you have someone to share it with.
I must admit that after 10 days of eating nothing but raw vegetables and fruits and a day on juice and water, everything tastes magnificently like bacon.
There. I just said the B word and I’m hungry
already.
Bon Appetit!
