The Master Cleanse in More Ways Than One.

Ok. So, if I had to pick one of my worst faults, it would be: PROCRASTINATION. That, and cursing. I think the way I have been viewing this blog was something as another obligation; something to turn in at the end of the day like an assignment at school. I am back with a whole new outlook on this blog. Same name, different view. It may be with the whole New Year's Resolution coming, but also with the overwhelming popularity of FB (facebook for the newbies), I am searching for a sense of refreshment through one of my most favorite, but long lost hobbies: writing. Don't worry, fashion and food will still be the purpose of this blog, but it will be more of a vessel for me to record my own thoughts and opinions in a more casual way- sans facebook updates (Thank GOD). Duh, a blog. No more updating deep thoughts or frustration on FB- don't lie, you know it gets annoying! And, who knows who's reading this, but like I said, this blog is now for me, and if anyone should choose to read, please do. Otherwise, mind your business and you can click onto the next one.

With that said, one reason I decided to restart this whole thing is that I have been traveling quite a bit lately. And if you know me, you know I absolutely love well prepared, local food. (Hopefully I can find pics to update) Within the past 3 months, I have been everywhere from San Francisco, Oakland, Sacramento, Seattle, LA, Tahoe, and back to San Diego- some places revisited more than once. So...with traveling comes trying out new restaurants, and with restaurants, come indulging in delicious food, and with delicious food comes....WEIGHT GAIN. UGH! Though I have given up meat for the past year with the movement (and trauma) of The Kind Life and Food Inc., please don't get it twisted- I have still been to probably some of the most delicious restaurants various cities are famous for and man...does my body feel the difference. I admit, I am one of those girls that might obsess over weight from time to time, but seriously, this time an intervention is in order! I had heard from a coworker about a little diet/lifestyle changer that some of you may have heard of called, The Master Cleanse Diet. Yes, it may have a reputation for being a bit extreme (its a frickin' liquid diet for the love of God), but my coworker claims that it has been working and some celebrities such as a certain Pussy Cat Doll or a certain Independent Woman with a nice looking booty are famous for using it. And, who doesn't want abs or booties like these chicks??

So. There it is. I am resurrecting my blog that was pretty much dead to the world (and to me) with a new outlook in life and a new change in my diet. I will record daily how things are going through my journey and hopefully it'll be a dramatic change. 10 days and in 7, I am again, flying back home for my bff's graduation for her Master's in Nursing. I am not looking to become stick thin in 10 days, let alone, 7, but I am hoping to feel a lot better than I do right now. So, wish me luck...Let's see how it goes! Onto the store I go to pick up the the ingredients to my Master Cleanse kit!
