Hi Beans,

I probably shouldn't be commenting here because you are asking for detox buddies and I will not be one.

But, I did want to comment that this "detox" thing has always intrigued me. I'm not sure I could live on veggies and soup but again, it interests me and I think it would be a good thing.

Me personally, right now, I've kind of been bad. I am having DIEP reconstruction in June and "working" on hanging onto abdominal fat and have even gained some. THAT has made me anxious and not happy. Not only because of how "icky" I feel (appearance wise) but because of the food choices I've been making as of late - wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too much sugar. Startiing today I am saying NO to the sugary treats - ENOUGH ALREADY - and will hope that the abdominal area will "hang on" till June. I suppose I'll not worry about "watching" my weight as much as "watching" the sugar intake. Oh well...........................

Like I said this intrigued me and I KIND OF would have liked to jump in BUT now is not the time. If nothing else though, you got me thinking about "detoxing" my body of some of the crap I've been ingesting as of late and for that I thank you.

I, like Steph, hope you (and those who join you) keep us posted on how it's going. What you're eating - good recipes etc.

Good luck and happy crunching.
