Clean Me Up Scottie!

For a while now, I have been thinking about removing meat from my diet. I am getting older now and I am noticing how yucky I feel day to day. And of course I know exercise will help, but I just want to eat better. So I have been doing some research, and I thought what better way to begin this new lifestyle, then to cleanse the toxins from the current lifestyle. I will do a Master Cleanse Program for 10 days, then begin my journey to a meatless diet. Peace of cake, right?

Let's see.....the program calls for lemons, purified water, cayenne pepper, and organic maple syrup - grade B. Sounds appetizing right? So Monday, I go to pick up my supplies. I didn't realize organic syrup was so hard to find. After calling around to several places, I finally located some. Wow....the stuff is pretty pricey.

Last night, I go home, to re-read the directions of my 10-day cleanse. Oh shoot, you need to do a oral enema of sea salt water. Who has sea salt just lying around? Ok, i read again...it needs to be uniodized salt. I guess Morton's out. Well...what difference could it really make? I get a luke warm glass of water and sprinkle good ol table salt in there. Stir it around. This can't be that bad. Take a long nice gulp of it. Gross. I can't get beyond 2 sips more.

I lay down thinking about tomorrow. I sure hope I can drink this stuff. I sit and ponder, is this the right time to start this? This weekend will be July 4th. You know the time for hot dogs, and bbq, and pasta salad. I sure I hope I can get through the weekend. Here goes nothing
