She Said: Purification Day “21″: Mission Accomplished!
June 14, 2010 by Kat
Okay, FIRST of all, of course hubs had to put me under the bus about my celebratory libation(s). Don’t let him fool you… He had 3 glasses (this size — seriously) of wine. NOT THIS: When I awoke this morning, the nice guy that he is… he asked if I was hungover. I told him [...]
He Said: Purification Day “21″: Mission Accomplished!
June 14, 2010 by Dave
The stretch run was difficult, but we were able to get through the Purification Program without killing each other. I did NOT go into this with 100% excitement (as you may know, I did it more to support Kat than for my own well-being). However, it turned out better than I could have possibly imagined. [...]
Purification: 5 days and counting…
June 9, 2010 by Dave
5 days remaining in our program. I guess I jinxed myself by announcing my weight loss – I’ve lost a grand total of ONE POUND since last week. Either way, I’m still 12 pounds less than when I started… Add the weight loss to the facts that I’m sleeping better than ever, I have the [...]
Purification: Less than 1 week left!
Okay, so I gotta admit. There were many, many moments during the Purification Cleanse these last 2 weeks when I considered throwing in the hat. On a few occasions, I considered seriously chopping the flippin’ head off of the entire program and saying to all of you (not that you really care 1% but I’d [...]
She Said: Purification Days 7 & 8: “Woman Overboard!!”
June 3, 2010 by Kat
First of all, is that a pic of a MAN, or a WOMAN, on that scale? Secondly, I just LOVED, LOVED, LOVED this. After going over like 2 things I need hubs to pick up at store on way home from work tonight, he says: “And, just so you know, I AM G>E>T>T>I>N>G R>E>A>L [...]
He Said: Purification Days 7 & 8: “Woman Overboard!!”
June 3, 2010 by Dave
Outside of my two lunch mates ordering the all-you-can-eat pizza buffet while I had the “Vegetarian Garden Salad,” the Purification is going rather well! I’m no longer disappointed to see that we’re having cauliflower on consecutive nights anymore, nor am I upset when I walk into the office to the smell of freshly brewed coffee. The adjustment took [...]
Purification Day 6: “On the Upswing”
June 1, 2010 by Kat
Day 6: Hubby and I finally agreed on something this week: Monday (Day 6) was the first time we really didn’t crave a glass of wine or a case bottle of Guinness beer. See? We actually don’t have a problem, guys! This weekend, eating and socializing has been do-able. Not ideal, but definitely do-able. Instead [...]
Purification Day 5: “It’s the Little Things (I Miss)”
Day 5: Okay, first of all let me first say — the food has been awesome that I’ve been preparing (has nothing to do with toot-tooting my cooking skills, but everything to do with realizing that you can make ridiculously delicious meals for your family that SERIOUSLY could not be more healthy and everyone will [...]
Purification, Days 3 & 4: “You Can’t Teach an Old Dog New Tricks”
May 29, 2010 by Dave
We’re into our fourth day of detox, and what I’ve discovered is that the most difficult part of the process isn’t the change in diet, nor is it the ban on beer & wine. It’s all about the routine – having to change everything about my intake of food & drink. When I get home after a long [...]
Purification, Day 2… “You don’t miss the water till the well runs dry”
May 27, 2010 by Kat
Okay, it’s been 36 hours. I’ve made it through 1.5 days of the Purification Program. You wanna know how I honestly feel? It’s like being on Thanksgiving Break from College, Freshman year. As much as you love being home — and you know you need the break from college, homemade meals, and some solid sleep [...]
