The Cake Days Are Over

For now. This is day three of detoxing (no sugar, caffeine, alcohol, dairy, wheat, yeast), and amazingly I do not have any cravings. Then again it is hard to have cravings when your head is close to exploding and you are nauseous. So I guess I'm doing ok. The terrible headache struck yesterday afternoon; I'm hoping today will be better.

 Matt and I reflected in teapot in Sweetie Pies (a newish café)

Loved the colours of this still life with hand - these were muffins with raspberries I made. No, I didn't eat them all myself, and no, I am not married -my Claddagh ring had turned

In preparation for this detox I thought it necessary to consume more coffee, tea, cakes and wine within two weeks than I usually ingest in two months. I think it was a case of "need-it-now-'cause-soon-I-won't-be-able-to-have-it" panic. And that's why the headaches were so bad. But I am feeling smug.... I can't believe I am so disciplined. We'll see how it goes...

(The reasons I am doing this are multiple, mainly recent health problems that I won't dissect here...)

Esto es el tercer día de no consumir azúcar, café/té, alcohol, trigo, productos lácteos y levadura, y no los echo de menos. Aunque esto no sorprende ya que tuve un dolor de cabeza y náusea ayer, así que no era difícil. Espero que hoy esté mejor. 

'Preparando' para este detox pasé dos semanas comiendo tartas y bebiendo café, té y vino, más que normalmente (casi nunca bebo café). Creo que era porque sabía que no podría tomar estas cosas muy pronto. Y por eso el dolor de cabeza es tan grave. Pero me siento engreída... No me puedo creer que estoy tan disciplinida. A ver cómo continua...

(Las razones para hacer esto son múltiples, principalmente por problemas recientes que no voy a exponer en detalle aquí)
