duck soup, day 3

i had a visit from the devil today. in the form of my wicked and temptation-bearing husband, who with a few of his syrupy words, killed and buried my determination. faced with another plate of watermelon for breakfast or one tiny eenie loh mai kai (glutinuous rice), it didn't take much to tempt this woman over to the dark side. one little lapse won't hurt the overall picture, right? i don't care. i want real food.

today, i get to add vegetables into my diet. no more papayas for lunch. besides, they were doing nothing for my bustline *wink*. a large salad, the little holy detoxification gospel said. think large salad, think......chili's!!! never in recorded history has the restaurant saw anyone finish the humongous salad in such a short time frame. most times, i can't even finish their salad but today i was very close to licking their plates clean.

the bathroom has been upgraded from the least visited place in the whole house to my best friend in the whole world. i think i see more of the bathroom in recent days than my husband's face. perhaps he may not view that comparison very fondly. if i lapse a little in drowning myself with glasses of water, i feel a headache approaching, which is a good thing i guess for someone who doesn't reach for a glass of water unless her throat is parched and voice cracking.

getting use to the programme and the yucky fiber drink by now. when i smell waffles and fried chicken, i smell the very disagreeable stench of oil and greasiness. a very strange transformation, albeit a temporary one, i'm sure. i like feeling thinner, i like touching the curves. asked hubby what if i turn anorexic after this episode. he's not worried; he says i love food too much. spoken like he who knows me best.

Actually, you want to do detoxification, you should do the less harmful and pricey way. Just eat fruits before lunch.

or have steamed grubs for lunch everday. You can stare at the dish or you can ask for the dish to be removed. Just do it daily.

dear monty: gerlanti cannot come back oso. our body is not used to the unfiltered water and the living conditions there. boleh mati hor.
