Ha ha! I was just checking my stats and saw that someone found my blog by using the keywords “rachelle cheating” How funny! I thought about cheating today (though probably not the kind of cheating this poor soul was searching for?!?). I really really wanted to dip my veges in the ranch dressing.

Tomorrow is NOT grains like I thought. Darn it. It’s fruit. We’re expecting to be snowed in, so the hubby and I went to the grocery store and stocked up. But…fruit is not one of the groups we purchased. What to do what to do? I’ve been drinking Odwallas and Naked drinks during this detox and those contain fruit, so…. I am thinking about skipping the fruit re-introduction. What do you think? Probably a bad idea, huh?

This is strange, but I am looking forward to the NS food again! I have been looking for recipes to doctor up the dishes.

I was so excited for this day! Then, I woke up.

My gym partner tex’d me to say the roads look icy, should we go to the gym at noon? I text that I can’t and I’m getting ready to leave. I start to happily mix my protein drink, but I can’t get the powder to dissolve and it tastes pretty gross. I ended up tossing a quarter of it. Then, I pack my berry drink for after my workout and head out the door. I can’t get my vehicle out of the driveway.

Argh! No yummy protein shake and and no gym. That messes up my whole day. I just hope we can get the 4 WD vehicle out of the drive so I can at least get to work. And, I hope my chewable veggies taste good this afternoon. The good news is I am down another 2 pounds.

Oh, and if you’re wondering….I think the gall stones quit coming, but the other effects are still with me. That flush was an all around icky experience.

Can you believe it? 21 days! I am so excited I can’t stand it. Tomorrow I get a protein shake and a salad (no dressing). It’s crazy!

Last night I started the gallbladder flush. It’s disgusting. I thought my homemade soups were bad, but this takes the cake hands down. First, you have to drink the apple juice/epsom salt mixture and for the nightcap, you drink a grapefruit/oil mixture. I thought I was going to die trying to get that stuff down. Then, when you get up, you drink more salt. There are what appear to be gall stones in there, so I guess it’s working, but my gosh I feel terrible. I gained a pound too which doesn’t make me happy.
