Now that I have then strength to lift my head off the table, it’s time for me to fill you in on my sulfite-free FAD DIET progress.
Official status report: SUPERFREAKINAWESOME.
ok, so I have to admit, the first three days was like walking around carrying 3 bloated elephants wearing fat suits. BRU-to the-TAL. But I eventually got the rhythm of everything and I.FEEL.FANTASTIC.
Mostly, probably, because I am clean. Not sulfites or booze for 8 days. There is not one sulfite iota in me. (Lie. Our body makes natural sulfites.) But I am not intentionally putting anything in me and I feel like I could fly. (Apparently, there may be some traces of college-age LCD.)
Down 13 pounds, too.
I did have a major RA flare-up for 5 of those days, but that is because I was late taking my shot, thinking that I might not need it anymore. Sometimes, I am a ridiculous person.
So, unnamed fad diet working. I am not really hungry on it, that is the trick with it, I think. But mostly, I see the others around me not GAINING and I think that is the whole key to this thing. Whatever, still not endorsing. Still not divulging. It’s really no big deal because the point is that I am clean and losing weight. Once I get through this little test of endurance, I will be back to clean living and hope I can naturally and slowly lose the rest of the weight. This, so far, is a nice springboard. BOINGGGGGG………
I think one of the reasons that I am doing too well on it is because I am used to being already a bit deprived having a sulfite allergy. I am used to having to make my food, even when I am really hungry. It feels good again to know what I am putting in my mouth is good for me.
I have some recipes that I am going to pop up for everyone and some of them are quite delicious. I just had me some chili that was scrumptious!! Lots of chicken, lots of fish, ground turkey, some meat…yummy veggies and fruits.
Pros: feeling great, losing weight, not hungry, great feeling of accomplishment
Cons: I miss booze.
Come back later and check out some of the recipes. I am going to type some up now. Bon Appétit, sulfite-nots!
