after 11 days of detox, 8 or 9 of which spent with a headache.. i’m back on the coffee. and the taste is sweet. i couldn’t do the last 3/4 days. i was finding eating the right things to difficult, so i’d just not eat at all. which wasn’t very good.

cold turkey

i started the detox today. it seemed fine at first. the pills didn’t go down as hard as i thought they would. the soy milk didn’t taste so bad. but as i started work, a headache started looming. by 2pm it was a full blown migraine, so bad i thought i was going to vomit.

and i attribute it all to caffeine. i don’t know whether i drink a lot. probably on average 1.5 cups a day. but i would have at least 1 a day without fail. and today obviously i had none. it was pretty tough.

so i left work. i couldn’t really concentrate on anything, and well, there wasn’t much work for me to do anyway. i got home around 3:30, and lay down straight away. i slept all the way through to 7pm, and only woke because chris came home.

i hope tomorrow is easier.

i don’t quite know what’s made me do it, but i’ve decided to do the 15 day de-tox program. i take i think 9 pills a day. and i’m allowed no alcohol, caffine, dairy or processed foods. some people at church are doing some fasting as well, for 21 days, so i figured i could possibly continue it (minus the pills) for that time. i’m going to struggle, that’s for sure. but i want to finish it..
