My latest adventure

You all know I am crazy right? I'm always trying to find a way to increase my energy level and decrease this battle with fatigue. I've been seeing a witch doctor but am now ready to start a 3 day fast. Yes, 3 days. My friend Laurel did this - twice! I figured if she could handle it then I could. Not that she is a big wimp or anything - three days is just tough. So here is what I will be "eating" for the next three days. I will be making a concoction of Grade B maple syrup, lemon and lime juice in a gallon of water. Yummy!

Another reason I decided to do this now is allllll the food I ate the past 10 days in the Northeast. Between Toronto and Eric's Mother's cooking I need to take a break from food. As I was leaving my house this morning on my way to work I could hear my body telling me to not eat breakfast. Seriously. Yet I stopped for a breakfast burrito anyway. There was not one reason I needed to eat today. My body is ready for a detox and this 3 days is it. Ready. Set. Go.

It's true.
It's true.
If I can do it, ANYONE can.
I am pretty much a big wimp and I love food!
GO ERIN GO! You're like Ghandi!
(btw, "day 2" is a killer!)

I heard after the first two days, it is easy as pie :) Good Luck! I love food FAR too much to do that. Keep us updated!
