Detox - Day 2

Weight: 232.6 pounds
BF: 25 %

I am in pain. So is Hemlock.

We are dealing with some really bad headaches. Mine seems to shoot up my neck and up and around over the top of my skull. Hemlock's is a throbbing one which gets worse if she moves around.

Although the rules don't allow it, I am seriously tempted to take some asprin.

I wonder how much of this is psychosomatic. I have gone days before without coffee and not felt this way. I have also eaten a "healthy diet" for a stretch of time without falling into this state.

I do notice the tension that was in my back, neck, and shoulders more now. Thinking that a massage might help ease this, I looked up massage in the local neighborhood phone book. It had two listings: one was for so-and-so physical therapy and the other was for "Sensual Alluring Ladies". Hemlock objected to my checking them out. She right, I am in no shape to get arrested right now. But I digress...

The meals were better today. I made some lentil stew with veggies and tumeric and cinnamon seasoning for lunch. Dinner was some Tilapia with tumeric, lemon, and basil, arrugula salad with radishes, strawberries, and blueberries and a lemon-basil dressing.

I had to make a run to Trader Joe's to get some more fruit. That was a test of my will power. As I went in, a woman was walking out with a very nice looking bagette. In the store the fruits are right next to the cheese display. I was good: no snacking, tasting, sampling, or stealing.

Mentally I seem to be more alert, but that just makes me more aware of this stupid headache.

As part of the program we are doing stretches and hydrotherapy. Our tub doesn't really work (not that I would fit in it anyway), so we just have to make do with the shower.

As to the details of the detox program we are doing. It is one designed by Mark Hyman, M.D. who is the medical director at Canyon Ranch Spa in the Berkshires. A while back we read a book he co-authored called Ultraprevention, which we liked and thought made sense.

This whole process would be easier if we could actually do it at Canyon Ranch where it is part of a program. There others worry about your food, there are scheduled yoga classes, and you are not exposed to all sorts of tempting images, smells, and foods. Of course, we cannot afford that..

Off to drink some water..

keep at it! in a week you'll feel so healthy you won't even know what hit you. i know how hard it is to kick caffine though, i've been trying to break my diet soda addiction for a while now because my dentist tells me the acid in it is destroying my teeth. even though i cry every time i get a filling (mostly because i have a small mouth and its like torture when they stick the adult sized instruments in it) i still get wicked cravings for it. i'm trying to stick to more natural stuff like teas and fizzy water, but it ain't easy. maybe we should start a support group!! wink

Good luck!

I know a legitimate massage therapist socially who is rumored to be good at it, although I can't speak firsthand.
