Yesterday was day 2 on The 21 Pounds in 21 Days, Martha's Vineyard Diet Detox.
I made the soup (Ginger Carrots page 207 of Martha's Vineyard Diet Detox).
I was really surprised - It was good. I had never made soup before, in fact I really dislike soup haven't eaten it since I was 5, until this morning.
This morning I started with the internal cleanse. Not a good idea. I felt very queasy after that.
I had the berry drink (earth's promise). It tasted great mixed with tea ( rishi Tangerine Ginger) but still felt weird. I had an important meeting I couldn't miss so I had to carry on.
Luckily, I had set the meeting at a vegan restaurant where I could get a green drink & an herbal tea. Instead I had the vegan pea soup ( 1/2 a cup- vegan so no dairy or flour) my first soup since kindergarten. It was great and I felt better right away.
So I was encouraged about eating soup.
I think I need to adjust the time I drink the cleanse. All that fiber at once maybe too much for me. .. also realized I'm not drinking enough distilled water - lots of tea but not so much plain water.
Too keep better track of the diet. I photo copied the schedule page and put it on the fridge. I check off the drinks/supplements as I have them. This works pretty well.
I feel OK but my nose is running like crazy, I'm thirsty often and I have a headache all the time. I know these are detox signs so I'm not worried - just a bit uncomfortable.
Oddly, this is my second day with no solid food and I don't miss it.
