So much change, 2012 is starting with a bang!!

Last blog found us at the end of our fast and embarking on the journey into no sugar and lots of veggies.  That journey is progressing beautifully.  The rut is abolished, one CAN officially use cauliflower for everything that you craved pasta for in your past carb-aholic life.  Both Frank and I have noticed positive changes in the midsection, namely losses that would rival the last 4 years of stock market.  And feeling great to boot. 

There have been some slips on the cleanse front.  Shortly after starting, my husband notified me by email he is divorcing me so he can marry a 25 year old Ethiopian girl.  Yeah, Jerry Springer stand in line, my story is booked. I will be on Ellen by next week I swear.  SO, little bit of stress and we are off to Maine to visit the fabulous Lehrer's and find a new farm!  This is all a good thing. So how does that impact me on the food front?  Well, if weight loss were the only goal, the stomach gnawing angst has been a great proponent of my ability to pull off the skinny jeans.  There was a bit of a slip with allowing some alcohol in and a rogue quiche crust and brownie were implied.  That being admitted, I moved right back to the cleanse and ate my weight in adrenal support nutritional supplements.  We are beginning to add a good amount of fruit back in as well.

Max, at 11, has started a love affair.  With a blender.  I bought a small ninja 700 watt blender with the little cup attachments for smoothies, he smoothies about 4-6 times a day on average.  Truth is, if we don't move to Maine soon, he will bankrupt me in blueberries.  The smoothie machine has beautiful timing, as Josie the cow is now giving almost a gallon of milk a day, Max is doing his best to keep up with our supply.

greetings from Lubec, Maine

So, recap of this short and sweet blog. Cleanse good! Husband idiot. Max marrying blender.
