We decided to try a 3-day cleanse. What does that mean?
A LONG list of groceries, and a LOT of time, organizing and prepping for meals.
"Why are we doing this?"asked Mike.
"I'm not sure," I realized. "Oh, YES! It's supposed to reboot our metabolism."
IT'S JUST 3 DAYS. WE CAN DO THIS!
Day 1 (Breakfast):
1 egg, 2 egg whites, with sliced cherry tomatoes, basil
(but, I forgot to buy basil, so I used spinach), and a sprinkle of parmesan cheese
Coffee, with 2 tablespoons 1% milk, or 1 tablespoon half & half
1 banana
"This coffee looks really watery,"said Mike.
"Hmmm. Maybe it's because it is not our usual coffee (that I did not intend to purchase),"
I replied.
"How much half & half am I allowed?"Mike asked.
"One of these," I said, as I handed him the teeny tiny little spoon.
Look of disbelief.
"Did you intend to buy lactose free half & half?" Mike asked, as he showed me the carton.
"Ummm, no," I responded, unsuccessfully trying not to laugh.
"For someone who is a creature of habit, this sure is a lot of changes for one day,"said Mike.
Later that morning . . .
"OH, shit. He forgot his banana."
