Day 2 - Detox and Will power

I have never dieted before and don't plan on dieting any time soon. I am doing the detox to get healthy. It is funny what other people think of that.

I was going to my parents' house today for my sister's birthday. My dad was making stuffed shells. That would kill me - all that cheese and pasta and tomato sauce. So, I called him and told him I would bring my own dinner. He was okay with that, but still offered me meatballs. "Oh, you can't have stuffed shells, but there are extra meatballs, if you want one." Then, came the "do you want some cake?" No, Dad, thanks. My mom is a nurse and didn't get it either. I explained that I was doing it to get healthy, to get all the stuff out of my body. Before bed, I usually feel bloated and gassy and in pain. My mom said that "Well, maybe something is wrong with you." Duh, mom. That is why I am doing this. AFter I get the bad stuff out, I will slowly reintroduce stuff (like wheat) and see if it affects me and if it does, I can connect it.

Funny how the non-healthy people want to bring you down. But, I succeeded in getting through day 2 with all that pressure.
