This is the week that I begin my detox diet to flush out all those toxins in my body while shedding those holiday pounds. My partner in crime is my sister Christine–this is the third year we will be doing it together, and we always begin at the new year. Right now we’ve set a goal to do it for a week, we’ll see how we are feeling at the end of the week and how many pounds we’ve lost. Last year, we did it for two weeks and I lost six pounds–not bad. And let me mention that I kept it off. A lot of people think I’m a little crazy to do this and don’t quite understand what you have to do. It’s hard to explain and you need to get the book, “The pH Miracle” to understand everything. But here’s a quick run down: all the food you eat (or I should say drink) is green, electron-rich and juiced. You have to drink one liter of water for every 30 pounds you weigh. You can’t eat any carbs (like breads or pastas) or dairy and fat comes from oils. Anyway, you can eat as much as you want and you do feel full but it’s a liquid full. So, right now I’m enjoying my avocado shake for lunch and it’s actually pretty tasty!

better you than me, woman! 🙂 just kidding. can’t wait to hear how it goes.
This does sound interesting – keep us posted.
Your doing it?! I hope you don’t get sick this time! I will hunt you down in Primary to see the results.
Tell me when I can shop for your new stuff!
Unless your going to Sister Scripture study, I will see you tomorrow. Hope my little cold goes away tonight.
i want that recipe!!! it sounds really yummy – but of course, i absolutely love avocado’s. by the way, you don’t even need to lose weight – so why the torture? 🙂
I did a detox thing for 5 days after I finished nursing Connor. It was great. I plan to do it again after I’m done with Will. It feels so good to clean out the system, doesn’t it?
Good for you! What is in your avocado shake? It sounds yummy to me 🙂
Sounds nutty like something that guy with the blue skin would do.
Oh, and me. Too bad I’m nusing.
You of all people don’t need to lose weight. But it is good to clean out your system.
Share the recipes!!
Good job, I should do a detox too. I probably have a whole heap of toxins.
Marleen I saw that blue guy too! freaky.
