Cleanse/Detox

Motivated by a friend's initiative, I've embarked on a cleanse/detox diet. Yesterday was the first of what was supposed to be three days of fruit and vegetable juice only. Ya -- I lasted 24 hours. However, 24 hours without food is a HUGE accomplishment for me. I go from meal to meal normally -- just waiting for the next delicious item to fill my belly. So, anyway, at 8:30 last night, I passed out from sheer exhaustion and hunger. On the upside, I slept for almost 12 hours! Woke up this morning, ready to go on the detox diet. I had my Psyllium and Bentonite fruit shake (kinda ewwww). Now I"m sitting here, enjoying some salsa and organic brown rice cakes, with a glass of water. Whoo hoo! Oh well, I'm going to make some bean soup today...and maybe a stir-fry. I think I can do it! It's only 7 days right?
