Haven’t posted in a couple days because I was ashamed. I had told you I was going to do it so it’s as no surprise that I have failed my two week detox. But looking at it as a positive I detoxed for 7 days successfully so that makes it OK… Right?
I was good until Saturday night when I went to Wahaca (Mexican restaurant) with friends. I wasn’t bad as I had a winter vegetable burrito but then we went for “drinks” after and there’s only so many “drinks” I can take where I’m being a loser sipping my still water with ice and a slice of lemon. That’s silly. It was becoming silly so I punched detox in the face and had a red wine.
The next day I only regretted drinking the wine because I felt like a steaming pile of crap in the morning. I still stood and stand by the decision I made but I didn’t feel too sprightly. I guess that was the toxins creeping in, back to where they were before, making themselves comfortable again.
Sunday was practically a detox free zone with cookies and ice cream and crisps until my stomach hurt.
Yesterday (Monday) I was more balanced. I had had my fun and I missed the way the good food had made my insides feel so I went back to the detox meals but did take the offer of a chocolate or two during work.
Although I may have slightly overdone it on Sunday, my training is bearable again as I have the energy my body has been craving for a week.
I guess we’ve all learnt our lesson here… Healthy food is a myth and cookies help you train for a marathon. Brilliant!
