Detox day 4

So it is the morning of my fourth day of detox and guys, seriously I FEEL GREAT!! The first day and a half were really rough but i've been playing around with my meal portions and that has really helped. Also i've started looking into what nutritional value my foods have and so i'm adding and taking away accordingly. Like i added some spinach to assure that i'm getting enough iron. and i'm sticking with yams which are crazy full of vitamins. I've also been trying some homeopathic remedies like making soups out of licorice root, ginger, and dandelion root. serious guys, this was actually way more delicious than you would imagine. Oh the other big thing was that i added some Texturized vegetable protein to my veggies mixes because i was feeling like i didn't have enough protein. Guys this shit is great!! I mean seriously i fit into my suuuper skinny jeans again with no sweat. I've been running and i'm getting muscles in my thighs that i didn't know i had. But perhaps more importantly, i feel really healthy, like really really.

Last night i had my first night out while sober. I went to a karaoke bar, the kind where you rent your own room like Azian style. Initially i was really wary since the only real reason that grad students hang out in groups larger than 3 is that they want to drink and forget about how wretched their lives are. But i started thinking how when i go home to LA, minus the times i hang out with cathy, i am usually completely sober. In fact, i often do sober karaoke with my cousins and i manage to have tons of fun. More fun even, because i don't feel like i made a giant ass of myself the next morning. Well low and behold i had a fantastic time and i totally was getting a contact high from other people. I even stayed out until like 2 am playing dr. mario at this girls house. And the best part....i woke up at 8:40 naturally with no hang over and have been up ever since doing various things. I'm going to play raquetball today with my new friend. She's potentially bisexual, goth, and loves pin up girls. doesn't that sound fun?!!
