I decided to do the Detox diet again. This time I had my two sisters & a coworker doing it with me. I was excited because I thought it would be so much easier the second time around.
I was so wrong. The detox coincided with my period and really made the process so much harder. On my first day I had a major headache. It almost felt like a migraine. I didn't take any medicine because I hoped it would only last one day.
Today, my second day, the headache was gone in the morning but boy did it come back. I decided to take Motrin rather than completely breaking the detox. I took four Motrins and my headache did not improve. By the end of the day I was going crazy. I was thinking of what I could go eat. I was craving everything! Coffee, sandwich, hamburger, fish, chicken salad, candy.... I was going to sneak away from work to go eat but I was held up by employees needing stuff. I'm glad that happened because who knows what I would have ate.
On the way home I had an apple. Still no improvement. My mouth was watering at the idea of making tuna with crackers for dinner when my friend showed up. I told him how miserable I was & he was very supportive of me postponing my detox.
I ended up eating a pretzel with mustard (we went to the movies) and lemonade. Got home & I had a small piece of brownie, some cookies, and coffee. That's when my stomach said "WTF?"
I'm drinking my detox tea right now. I'm not feeling crazy anymore & the headache is almost gone. I'm thinking of getting back on the detox tomorrow. If I can get through it without a headache I should be fine but if the headache comes back then I'm off it for sure. We shall see what happens.
Nighty night.....
