Detox Diet

Today I started my detox diet, the next 3 weeks I am going to 'eat' actually drink the equivalent of 21 servings a day of fruit and vegetables. And that's the only thing... So no meat, fish, diary, wheat, pasta, sugar, salt&pepper, alcohol, caffeine. Just fresh live fruit and vegetable drinks, herbal teas and vegetable broth with NO salt. No chewing for the next 3 weeks!

It's the Martha's Vineyard Diet Detox called 21 lbs in 21 days by Roni DeLuz! Anybody heard of it?

I've prepared myself already for a few weeks, since mentally I HAD to prepare myself for this. It won't be an easy 3 weeks I am going to have. But I am determined to go through with it, for 2 reasons. I really believe in the fact that you need to detox your body at least once a year and I am thrilled of the possibilities to lose 21 lbs! Whenever I follow a diet I NEVER lose the amounts they claim, so this time too I don't think I will lose the 21 lbs, but even if I lose 10 I would be so happy!

This is a drastic measurement, but I need those drastic measurements, otherwise I give up too easily. So wish me luck and I will keep you posted on my days, today there is not much to write yet, since mostly I write my blog in the morning, but I already started with the mile walk and dry brushing your skin before you go into the shower.

I started now since Dirk is quite some days gone this month, so at least I don't need to cook for him, just for the girls. Which I can do easily beside preparing my fresh live fruit and vegetable juices!

In the meantime the girls had this little project going on at home, they bought this kind of 'potato' head, as they call it. But it is a pantie hose filled with sand and grass seeds in the shape of a head. Each day for the last 3 weeks they have been watering this head and this is the result. Every day when they came back from school they rushed to their 'potato' head to see how much hair had grown, so cute!
