completion.

The end is near, my friends. I am officially done with my cleanse today.
Why today? Simple... Tonight is Beer Olympics. I can't be cleansing when I'm doing keg stands and playing tippy cup, clearly.

So overall, I feel really great after the cleanse. I've noticed this past work week I have been feeling a bit groggy (lasting effects from caffeine withdrawal), but I do plan on keeping up the decaf bit. I have made a decision regarding jumping into the land of vegans... aaaaaannnnndddd.... it's just not for me. I've thought a lot about it, but quite frankly, I just don't want to change. I like being a vegetarian (that eats some seafood and dairy). It is easy, fits my life, and I'm just plain used to it. Being a vegan is an admirable thing in my mind, but this lady likes her sushi, cheese, and coach purses.

As far as the sugar, gluten and caffeine, well, that was just apart of the cleanse. As I said, no more caffeine, and for gluten products, I will limit consumption (it's in a lot of vegetarian meat substitutes like veggie burgers, so hard to avoid entirely). Sugar? Ah, my first love. Well... Considering that my ass has shrunk some since this cleanse, I believe I will definitely be keeping my sugar consumption to a minimum.

So that concludes the cleanse. I'll probably do it 3-4 times a year, as recommended, but in the meantime, will be sure to enjoy the simpler pleasures in life, like real cream cheese on a bagel. And an egg. And cheese pizza. And real yogurt.

And the final wrap up... bad ad time.

Installment #3: Am I Fat?
I'm not quite sure how this quiz can tell you anymore than looking in a mirror... Regardless, there is something so wrong about this, it strikes me as hysterical. Has anyone actually ever taken this quiz?
