My Quest For Cleanliness!!!

I'm getting on in years now (ripe old age of 32) and its important to look after your health. So the wife and I decided to start a body cleanse today. Its some cleanse program that she got from work and so far it seems pretty harmless. This one actually allows you to continue normal eating habits, assuming you don't eat junk constantly. It says to eat healthy sensible meals which we pretty much do anyway. The last one we tried, all you could have was water and the crappy pills and powder they gave you. No food or other drink for 10 days. Yeah. We lasted about 2 days on that one.

So I have better hopes for this one. You take 3 pills 1/2 hour before dinner, then you drink a scoop of powder with water 1/2 hour after dinner and then take 3 different pills before bed. Pretty simple. Once a day. BING, BOOM, BAM. You're done. Its not spread out over the whole day as a meal replacement. So that's a big plus. Its still 10 days but I feel like it will be much easier to complete this one. Being able to actually eat is helpful that way.

The only drawback to this program so far is that one of the top tips for success is to eliminate caffeine (specifically coffee) and alcohol during the course. That's gonna be a tough one for me. Not so much the alcohol, but the coffee for sure. I usually have 1-2 cups in the morning to get me going and wake me up. I'm definately gonna get the coffee withdrawals for the first couple days. But if that's the price for a purer me then so be it. And it just so happens that 10 days from now will be my poker night this month. So that means I can cut loose and enjoy myself again that night. WOO HOO. Of course, I'll probably be so clean and pure by then that I'll get totally obliterated off one beer and lose all my cash.

I am very excited about one thing with this cleanse deal. The "more frequent and comfortable bowel movements". Exact words in the booklet, I kid you not. I enjoy a good round on the throne and to be able to do it more often and in more comfort than usual? SIGN ME UP BROTHER! I will also take this opportunity to conduct a small experiment. Since I can still eat normally, in theory any weight I lose will be mostly from toxins and other gunk built up inside me. I am curious to see how full of shit I actually am since people have been telling me that for years! Can't wait to tangibly quantify it.

So anyway, that's the big news in our lives this week. God, I'm getting old if that's the most exciting thing I've got going on now. I'll let you all know how it went when we're finished. Until next time readers, I bid you farewell and wish frequent and comfortable B.M.'s upon you all!
