Day Two: More Adventures in Clean Detox

Bridget Jones’s Update of Day Two: BMI: 25.4 (- 1) Yay!, Activity Level: Ice skating 1 hour (mild), Brief Observations: Mild headache/nausea more like slight carsickness. Clearer mind.

Day One of the Clean Detox is ov-aahhh. (slappin’ a little Boston accent for my Cali readers.)

Got my first compliment. My skin looks better. Sweet. (thanks Laurie Schhhhh. and Elizabeth Feen-ster) More Importantly, I feel better and my mind is clearer. Due to my 2 weeks off of caffeine? Perhaps. I’ve also been doing the Clean in trial for the past 2 -3 weeks. I may have had a jump-start.

So the headache, nausea is interesting. Supposedly this is normal for the first 2-4 days. I’ve been trying to keep up on what to expect on the Clean Detox support site. Also normal is horrendeous nightmares. Like terrifyling snakes the size of subways as one fellow Clean Detox-er had happen. Look forward to it. Especially if I get to say (in the dream of course) Samuel Jackson style “Mother Fucking HUGE Snakes on a Plane/Train/Boat/Bus!” — which, of course, I’ve always wanted to do. Just as long as it’s not the I’m being chased and I can’t move. I really hate that one.

Adios for now.

   Bets,

   Yes, you can expect to have headaches for awhile. I don’t remember having nightmares, but definitely vivid dreams and night sweats. But only for the first week or two. Then everything settles down.

   BTW, how are you calculating your BMI?
