So I am getting ready to go to the store and buy food that I can eat on this whole foods cleanse, and I guess I have to stop talking about it and actually do it at some point. I thought I had finally eaten all the junk food in the house and not to mention drank all the wine which was alot of work.But I totally stuck with it. I may be on the brink of diabetes and alcoholism, but I will be damned if I am going to throw away M&Ms or reese's cups. That would be totally crazy. So yeah, I thought, finally there is nothing remotely exciting in the pantry so I can start fresh and clean next week.
And then Stephen decides to take himself "grocery shopping" and pick up a few things the other night. I opened up the cabinets and now there are like hostess donuts, nacho cheese doritos (family size), toaster strudels, ect, ect. Its like he basically spent 150$ filling up our cabinets with the most processed food that exists. Does he hate me, or did he just eat a pot brownie before he went shopping? I am really not sure. Although I suspect his thinking was more along the lines of how there is no way I am actually going to go without sugar, grains, dairy or wine for 30 days, so why pretend? And he may be right, but man I wish he would humor me every once in awhile.
So despite the fact that our house has more high fructose corn syrup and preservatives than the little Debbie cake factory in it right now, I will forge on and plan to eat nothing but whole foods for 30 days starting tomorrow. Although I am interested to see how it may benefit my health, mainly it is getting on my nerves that no one seems to think I can do it and frankly thats the main reason I want to do it at this point. Also I have forgotten what it looks like when your gut doesnt hang out over the top of your jeans. Wish me luck!!
