It’s Over
Posted on December 17th, 2006 in Not Easy Bein' Green, Stupid Stuff I Did
I made it seven days.
Subsisting on lemon juice, maple syrup and cayenne pepper.
My skin is clear, my energy level is high, I assume my colon is somewhat cleansed and as a bonus, I’ve dropped somewhere between five and eight pounds.
But my God you guys.
I’m hungry.
So I’m quitting.
I think seven days is pretty admirable for a first try. I’ll shoot for ten next time…if I ever get up the guts to do it again.
For now, pass me some pita bread and I’ll take it slow because I’m not sure I remember how to chew.
So… you’ve lost weight and have more energy, but are you happier (as the diet promises)?
I suppose the happiness is derived from being able to eat something not consisting of lemons, maple or cayenne.
Oh, hey! I’ve got a new drink for you to try…
Lemon Drop
1.5 ounces vodka
.75 ounce lemon juice
1 tsp maple syrup
Shake with ice. Strain into a frosted cocktail glass, rimmed with cayenne pepper.
Yum!
