Smooth Sailing

Well, I'm happy to say that my digestive system has done a complete 180 in the past few days. Today alone I used the bathroom more than the previous week and a half combined, which isn't saying much, but at the same time, it says a lot about how I spent my day.

Today marks the halfway point of the detox, and I'm feeling a little melancholy that from here on out I'm closer to the end than the beginning. It's been fun, honestly. I've noticed that by being more mindful of what I eat, and putting a lot of time into preparing my meals I've been a bit more mindful of other things in life. I've been slightly more diligent and focused and spend my time a bit more wisely. I enjoy the slower pace and admit that I needed something drastic to remind me of that fact. It's kind of like when Ferris Bueller said his friend (Cameron?) was so uptight you could put a lump of coal up his ass and in a few weeks you'd get a diamond. Somehow that became me.
