BANANA ISLAND! AND THE VIBRANT LIVING FESTIVAL!



Well, folks, banana island....is just that. Bananas...ONLY!

I had 18 bananas yesterday, eaten in meals of 3-ish several times a day whenever i got hungry. I drank lots of water, too. And peed about 5 trillion times.

It actually wasn't too bad.

The only challenging time was driving home from the hospital. You know, past all of my old 'pleasure palaces' (fast food places) where i would binge on vegetarian junk food (pizza, rolls and butter, icecream, donuts, etc...) over the last months...gaining mongo amounts of weight.

Driving past these places, and feeling the desire for that food well up in me, and then realize i'm not going to eat it today, felt like something was dying in me.

The good news is...something is dying...the old me.

Dr. D is not too bad. I think he's kind of jerky, but redeemed himself in his last email. I'll share more another time.

I'm committed for 3 months, so i should be hot to trott soon enough! So thrilled about that!

And tolerating him for the 3 months will be worth it because i will finally be back home...to PURE RAW JOY.

I'm so happy that you have a plan that you are familiar with. I was worried for you. I just started a modified version of his program, I'm not doing all mono meals but just reducing the nuts and olive oils have made a big difference.

I'll be reading for tips.

Hang in there
