Definitely want to do the Liver Cleanse soon, but there are 2 things holding me back.
1.) That I really wanted to do the 20 day Kidney cleanse first because when I look at my face, the kidneys seem to be the organs that need the most help and I don’t want to overload them by doing a liver detox, and
2.) That I don’t have enema stuff to be able to do the enemas that are supposed to be part of the liver cleanse protocol (even though I’m hesitant about doing it all, the fact that I’m still talking about “doing it one day” means that I believe that it will be in my future.
So this week is not really planned. I did buy some meat from the butchers, so probably this week will involve a bit of chicken and lamb. I think it’s partly because I can see my future as being all raw or at least meat-free at least for the next year while I embark on all these organ cleanses, so maybe the “self-sabotage” person inside me, wants to grab hold of the meat while I’m still “undecided”.
The other thing, is my teeth are in terrible shape, especially lately. They are getting browner and look yuck, and I know that I am missing ‘something’ from my diet in regards to teeth health and I know one of those possibilities could be meat. Although the fact that I still smoke and drink coffee is definitely a 90% factor. Anyway, have no real “plan” for this week, except I want to have a smoothie everyday. So let’s see how I go.
