there goes my unofficial haitus...

Sooooooo...

I apologize to everyone for sorta vanishing for a bit. Two things happened: I got pretty depressed that my laptop couldn't be revived, and somehow I ended up sleeping during the day and being awake at night. Both not entirely fuzzy things. I really do love the night, but it's hard when you're the only one awake and you can't do anything because nothing is open. So, I have finally gotten myself back on a decent schedule.

As for the detox... okay, I'm human. I DID do the detox, but I haven't been around a scale recently because I haven't been to the gym in two weeks because my sleep cycle was opposite of what the world's is. I know, excuses, excuses. I'm back, though. (Do I hear groaning?)

So the detox... and I have a confession to make. I am a baby when it comes to headaches. Since I was eating only 800 calories a day, I had constant headaches, and since I wasn't allowed to take aspirin I suffered for the first couple days. Finally, I said, "screw this!" and took aspirin. But it still didn't work. The next day I ended up going off of the detox, though not binge-eating, just adding some meat and whole grains back to my diet, and I automatically felt better. My blood sugar was low and apparently my body is wimpy when it comes to that. But that brings me to a question... is a detox diet like that even healthy for you? All the research I've ever done says NOT to eat less than 1200 calories a day, and yet this detox diet is way under 1000 calories.

I don't know... this is an area I'm pretty much a newbie in. This is my first ever try at a detox diet. What do you guys all think? I'd love to hear from everyone about this!

A bit confused,
Steph
