Detoxing

Five days into my Dr Stone purification diet and all’s going well.  I have done the detox several times over the years, I like to do it at least once a year, a bit like a ‘service’  for my body.  This detox is not for the faint hearted but has great benefits.

I was motivated to do the detox this year, after a few years off, because after recent tests the doctor told me I had some fatty cells in my liver. As I don’t drink I know that the cause is my diet, I am addicted to sugar, I think this a result of being born in the 1950s into a poor family, having a bad diet such as white bread sandwiches with just sugar or jam for tea.

I must also say that weight loss was a motivator as I have gained 4½ stones over the past 10 years, since my menopause.

The benefits I am feeling today are a suppleness of my joints and the bonus is a 7 pound weight loss.
