So far, I’ve lasted 8 hours on the leek detox/cleanse and a friend has just stopped by to drop off he food left in her apartment before she leaves tomorrow. In this little box of food are chips and chocolate macadamia nut cookies. My willpower is not strong enough to resist them.
Perhaps it wasn’t the best time to experiment with a diet when I was sick with a sinus infection to begin with.
I have to say though, that I kicked the bad habit of biting my nails in the last month, which is something I am really very proud of.
Now I just need to loose that 15 lbs!

Good for you on the nails!
And good luck with the diet.

Thanks! It helps that I can get manicures here for about $5, so I treat myself once every couple of weeks to a mani-pedi.

Detox is a myth. It’s completely made up to get people to buy into expensive foods and “health” products. However leeks are delicious and very good for you being rich in iron and vitamins (and roughage). People should eat more greens but the odd cookie won’t hurt you.
