I'm starting a detox!

Sorry about the most boring outfit in the planet! Maybe tomorrow's will be better. I just gotta make my brain work and think like Rachel Zoe except that's not gonna happen.
Anywho, I am starting a detox. Yes. Under my sister's supervision. She's a vegetarian and she had this "brilliant" idea of starting a "cleansing" diet. I hate that word, "cleansing", it's so annoyingly peaceful (do you know what I mean? probably not). And since she's doing it I had no choice but to join or else I'd look like the family fatty, which I already am. This is basically me wanting to redeem myself. "NO DAD I won't eat that piece of chocolate cake OKAYYYY? I am stronger than yesterday". 
{Sometimes I like to end my sentences with a Britney Spears song.}
Are you curious what I'll be eating? Again, probably not, but I'll still say it. I like to call these meals "grass" because I'll only be eating vegetables, seeds and all that..."yumminess". So excited. 
I can't drink milk, eat meat, bread, pasta, butter etc etc. Only the best things in life. 
Has anyone ever tried almond milk? ohmmgosh. I've never tasted anything in my life that tastes like "nothing", but I tell ya, almond milk does it. It tastes like absolutely nothing. Just a cup of white nothingness. It just feels gooey. Blerhh. 

Okay, I think I'm gonna go eat some seeds now. Yayyyyyyy.

I don't know what to say other than I would choose to be the family fatty. I love my bread, and I can't give it up.

I think I'll live vicariously through you without actually joining in! Who knows, perhaps I'll be inspired...

 PIECE OF CAKE. PEACE OF MIND.

I actually really like the outfit! Love me some Rachel Zoe inspiration, too. Best of luck with the cleanse! I did that cayenne pepper cleanse before - vom. Let us know how it goes, maybe I'll be inspired to do it also.

What type of cleanse are you doing? I've done a modified "master cleanse" before: nothing but a water, lemon juice, honey, and cayenne pepper mixture and salads. Can you have soy milk? I'm not a big fan of almond milk either -- definitely tastes like nothing! Haha. Good luck!

la premiere fois que jai achete du almond milk jetais comme " okay.. okay yes i like this, its different, it feels clean, its just milk with a twist. " mais non cest meme pas degueulasse ca ressemble a de l'eau distille en classe d'SVT. bonne chance pour ton detox I GUESS, cest vraiment rad ca. pourquoi est-ce que ya une image d'une brosse sur le livre du detox? et ya genre trois photos d'eau cest comme OKAY WE GET IT WATER IS GOOD FOR YOU.
moi je viens de manger un bagel et un donut avec du glaze et des pepites colorees, donc cest un peu comme si je faisai un regime moi aussi, I TOTALLY RELATE.

You go girl! I need to do that, too. Ugh. But, instead, I think I'll just keep eating fettucini alfredo and garlic bread and cookies and steak. ;)

Please let us know how it GOES! xoxo

i think you just became my new favorite person!!

But I like seeds and fruits and vegetables (and the banana bread and pizza goodness you may or may not have splurged on, tonight). That being said, I have two things I want to discuss, here.

1. I am never coming to your house. If you're the fat kid, I'm the beached whale. ;)

2. Who is this Melisande? Awesome name, sweet comment. Except she stole my idea AND my favorite person. So... she and I need to have a chat. ;)

I've always wanted to go on a dextox, but living in a dorm doesn't exactly allow it. Heard it works wonders though !

I was just reading up on doing a detox but I put it aside knowing I do not have the power to stick to one at this time. But major props to you for at least trying. Good luck. I've been drinking almond milk for years. There is vanilla flavored that doesn't have real sweeteners in it which I like but I usually mix it with some tazo chai tea so I don't know if that helps much which the lack of flavor.

I've been meaning to do a cleanse for a while now, so I'm really excited/curious to see how this goes for you! I'm vegetarian already, so no need to sweat the lack of meat. But butter? That would be death.

such a lovely outfit! x

Hilary Grace said...

I've been having a green smoothie every morning and cutting back significantly on carbs and dairy and it's been helping! It'd be really hard for me to do a cleanse (yes, I get the annoyingly peacefulness of that word haha), since I don't think I could give up certain things altogether. Good for you though! Hope you experience good results!

Your outfits could never be boring. And say you are fat one more time and see what happens.

No seriously, just try because I would have you know I take Tae Bo
