I started with the 3 day juice and fruit cleanse. Hey, it's summer! There's fresh fruit everywhere and I love fruit. What could be bad about this?
Have you ever had a colonoscopy? You know the whole 24 hours ahead of that when you cleanse your whole colon of everything that has ever been inside it? This is similar to that.
Here's the good thing; I have never eaten so much in my whole life. I am continually grazing on watermelon, pineapple, grapes, honeydew and jicama. It's all been really good, but I had to throw in the jicama for a crunch and a change in texture.
Oh! I was at Central Market today to load up on more fresh fruit and vegetable goodness and there among the grapes was this:
This is the most horrific thing I have ever put in my mouth! Vile, disgusting, putrid with a lingering aftertaste that will make you want to chew your own arm off if it would make that flavor go away. And I have eaten some gross things but this was just the worst.
I had to sample every other grape in the store to finally get rid of it. Even now, the memory of that flavor is making me nauseous just writing about it. Please, for the love of God, get rid of these abominations.
If I have saved even one person from this atrocity, it was worth it.
I have no idea how long it will take my body to adjust to being mostly all vegan, and gluten-free. Nor whether this will be a long-term change or just a temporary thing. I am willing and ready to give it a try to regain my health and hopefully reverse some of the inflammation going on.
If you are so inclined, give me a thought or a prayer tomorrow as I am seeing the pulmonologist at long last. I don't know if the scope and biopsy of the lungs is still a reasonable choice or if I am past the stage where that would be valuable information.
And I am off to brush my teeth again to get rid of the memory of those disgusting fake-flavored grapes.
