So... the cleansing diet. That was supposed to last a week, but with our emergency trip to Tulsa, it got tossed out with the bath water. That's OK though because those three days of the diet were good. Well, except for that one part on Tuesday. Sometime around 3 in the afternoon, I started getting the worst headache. And by the time I made it home, I was in pain and a bit woozy. Chris decided it was because I'd had all carbs and no protein. I disagree. Quinoa has protein and I ate a lot of quinoa. A lot. I came home that day and collapsed on the bed and instantly fell asleep. While Chris made dinner, I dreamed that there was an elephant standing on my bed waving her trunk over my head. I dragged myself out of bed and ate a HUGE salad with beans and mushrooms and felt normal again. Wednesday was good, and I probably should not divulge this next bit, but I don't care. Wednesday I pooped five times. FIVE TIMES! Good healthy poops and three of those times happened at work. At work! I don't poop at work. It just isn't done.
So, Chris and I declared the cleanse a success. I had my own little vision quest and cleaned out my system. Maybe next time I'll have all the knowledge I need to avoid the day two crash.
