you're on a detox? really? I would never have guessed.

Alright, sorry for all of the detox posts... but here's another for the curious...

Top Ten Detox Rules
-> no red meat
-> no dairy produce
-> no wheat, gluten, yeast
-> no alcohol
-> no biscuits, cakes, doughnuts
-> no jams, spreads-except honey
-> no coffee, decaffeinated coffee, or tea-except hearbal teas
-> no sugar, chocoalte or sweets
-> no artificially produced flavourings: tomato ketchup, vinegar, mustard etc.
(Dr. Joshi's Holistic Detox, Hodder Mobius , pg 51)

Obviously the hardest things for me are sweets, coffee, and alcohol. I kind of just got sick of broccoli over lunch, so I'll have to switch in another option. Carrots are my favourite things these days...probably because they're high in sugar.

Sweets are all around at work...white chocolate covered sponge toffee yesterday, Hershey's kisses and one bite cookies today. I don't know why I love kisses so much. It's cheap chocolate, but... I miss it. I can't even walk past them. Look at this lovely plumpy talk.

and lovely lush talk. If only I wasn't reading Sideways and Joe would stop bragging about his time in wine in Europe, I really might not have suffered as much with this no alcohol thing. It was fine at the game last night, and it will be fine tonight at World Trivia Night (wish the Idiot Savants luck!).... but wine... lovely red full o body wine...
