Detox day four.

I'm continuing the candida detox diet as instructed by the voodoo specialist. I'm not going to lie, it's been pretty terrible. I'm persevering, though. It was much easier today than it was the first three days. Today I got full. It was a great feeling. I never realized how good it was until I starved myself for a few days.

I'm trying to find things I can eat, since I can't eat anything I used to like. I ate green beans and eggs the first couple of days. That gets old really quickly, for those of you who've never tried it. I went back to the chiropractor on Monday and she sent me to both the health food store and the veggie section of the grocery store. At the health food store I got some crackers made out of pecans and rice that taste like pork rinds. They wouldn't be so bad if I didn't picture pig skin every time I ate one. I got some bread made out of spelt that's pretty good if you think organic when you eat it. (If anybody knows what spelt is, let me know. It would be nice to know what it is I'm eating.) I also got some amino acids that taste just like soy sauce. And it's in a spray bottle. I was pretty excited about that one. At the grocery store I got carrots, asparagus, squash, and sweet potatoes--none of which I like. I started with the sweet potatoes, cooking them a way the doctor suggested. I got two bites in before I couldn't stand it anymore. I even coated the second with the vegan soy sauce, hoping it would mask the flavor; but then it was just soy sauce and sweet potato--which is even more gross.

I'm still trying to like vegetables. I'm going to be on this crazy little diet for a month. I can't eat fake toast and fake soy sauce for every meal. Who knows, maybe once I forget what chocolate and french fries taste like, vegetables will be delicious.
