Based on my news the other day, I have been placed on a detox diet. This is no master cleanse people, it simple requires that I don't eat refined sugar, white flour, pasta, rice, caffeine or processed foods.
Sounds easy, right?
NO! NOT EASY! Aside from the fact that I wanted to rip the waffle off my daughter's plate this morning and shove it in my mouth - I am also experiencing massive sugar and caffeine withdrawal symptoms (read as experiencing the worst headache of my entire life).
Needless to say staring at a computer screen and writing is not something I am doing so hot with at the moment.
If I am not back my tomorrow...send a giant chocolate cake.

ack no caffeine??? i would probably shrivel up in a ball! good luck with the no fun detox!
Are you allowed whole wheat or other whole grains? Or just no carbs? Cuz no carbs in general is torture. Diet A&W root beer and Fresca are my fave no caffeine and no sugar sodas. Good luck with the detox, and hopefully in a few weeks you can phase some of the tasty stuff back in to your diet. :)
I can have whole wheat - so it is not a no carb thing. But I cannot have any form of artificial sweetener other than stevia. So no diet coke - GAH!!
I have rarely felt so sick as when I'm in caffeine withdrawal. Speaking of which...I should probably start to slowly cut back because my caffeine intake has gotten dangerously high.
Aw, sweetie....this is tough! But, once you get the hang of eating this way it will be much easier! (Not that it will be easy, but it will get easier). Plus, you are doing it for great reasons, so you can be healthy. I don't mean to be all "polly-anna" on you, but this could be an awesome opportunity to change your life for the better!!!! You can do it!!!!
