I am not entirely sure the placebo concept is true. Perhaps it is (the mind is a powerful thing, and it can do some crazy shit,) however, I started this without any real expectations, and have had a lot of skepticism and negativity associated with the process. Hmmm, who knows.

Fair enough I suppose.
Had to be a good reason for you though initiating an extreme diet though?

Well... not something I like to talk about on here, but some various health issues that were concerning me coerced me to at least make an attempt and see what happened.

It's cool, PM me if you want.

Originally posted by Frenchie If I wasn't drinking alcohol right now, I'd drink some milk. I just.. I don't know. My 4 closest best friends HATE milk and really don't know how I can just pour a HUGE glass and drink it just like that. As a kid I was just so attached to milk

Why not do both? White Russians ftmfw

That reminds me, gotta pick up some half n half tomorrow. Been trying to drink using 1% milk, and that shit is crap.

Alright, so tomorrow (technically today) is the last day of my detox. I know I haven't been updating this every single day, BUT I have recorded everything I have eaten each day, so I will get to writing it all out eventually.

I am so excited to be able to eat normal food again I am going grocery shopping tomorrow, and I am gonna get lots of chicken and meat, and bread, and cheese, and... and lots of stuff.

Oh, and I have been stocking up on easter chocolate, so Imma mow down on some chocolate too

I am really proud of myself; I have not cheated at all on this diet, and I am feeling super duper awesome I know that this last three weeks has made a huge impact on my overall health, and it's given me a reality check on how a diet can drastically influence how you feel. I will for sure keep up the healthy eating (even more than I had been before).

I have DEFINITELY lost weight, but I wont have the exact number until either tomorrow or tuesday when I can weigh myself. I am guessing about 10 lbs though.

Anyway, I really suggest that other people should try this. It takes A LOT of will power (I wanted to cheat about 32458734 times, and even considered cutting the detox down a week,) but it is worth it.
