Pure thoughts?

I’m getting ready to do this 21Day
rid your body of toxins cleanse thingy-
Starting right after labor day-
No gluten
No sugar
No animal products
No diary
No caffeine
No alcohol
Anyone over here done this?
Any tales to tell/advice?

 

[Maxamuus]

No alcohol

 

[wallyb]

Not concerned with the booze-
The sugar, dairy and gluten will be the challenge.

 

[jackskellingtonsgirl]

Um, hello?
Caffeine, sugar, and dairy are the base of my entire life! Coffee with sugar and half & half. Every day. In mass quantity.

Good luck, Wally! I'll drink my coffee and observe!

Well it'll be an "adventure" I'm sure-
but it's only 21 days - I think I can do that.

If you don't make it... Can I have the dog?

No gluten

Sounds like "NO FUN" to me

 

[jackskellingtonsgirl]

So really, after all of those exclusions what CAN you have? Lettuce?

21 days that will feel like 21 years.

I'll be watching!

Well - Paul's doing it too - so there is
the strong possibly we KILL each other-
So yeah - Stella can come live with
Auntie Jamie!

WARNING: She's super spoiled!

um NEVER! Looking forward to my Cosmo's Friday after work!

See cosmo, martini, mojito etc. -
all way to much booze for me.

I like "girly" drinks - at least a third mixer -
need to keep my head about me.

I'm going to be okay with the no "fire water" thing.

 

[wallyb]

If anyone has any good sources
for vegan recipes - hook me up.

 

[rosiep]

This maybe a good thing for me and my chelation. I just don't know about no sugar.

I've got 4 friends who finished already
and they're all reporting all these health benefits.
Or at least they believe it.

I'm going to try it - what ta hell.

No chocolate will kill.

Are nuts and seeds ok? Gotta have my nuts

Don't we all

Well I'm just learning it myself - but I think nuts and seed are fine.
I checked on dates - I like dates as a treat.
And there is a sweetener you can have agave- it just taste sweet-
no funny flavor to it - its near the honey in your store.

gluten is the hardest one to weed out.

I have agave syrup already. It'll never replace sugar for me..but it's not bad at all.

Gluten: no bread, no pasta, no pizza of course..what else has gluten?
