Or in my case, roast beef (mmmmm) and a first birthday!
Thursday was the first complete day of my detox: I woke up on time, I followed the meal plan to a T, and I went to bed...almost on time. I even resisted the temptation of free pizza and garlic fingers! (There was a pizza party at work. It smelled glorious! Heavenly! Sublime! I ate ONE teeny tiny garlic finger. *sigh)
Yesterday, Day 5, was a pre-planned half day of sorts. This is Thanksgiving weekend, so I broke my detox after my Maca Latte for the sake of a late evening grilled cheese supper with my parents, followed by a chaser of mini cupcakes (because my mom is @karenmakescakes, and she lives up to her handle)!
Today is my little neice's first birthday party. She's definitely ths star of the show this weekend.

I stayed up into the wee hours of the morning finishing my present for the neicy-poo, and then I was so excited to give it to her, I could hardly get to sleep!
The fact that, after the sweets and late night, I still woke up easily and mostly cheerful this morning makes me think this detox is really helping to stabilize my out of whack body. I'm almost reluctant to break it further, but once they put that birthday cake in front of me, I'm sure I'll reconsider quickly!
