A month before our arrival date, The Ranch sent each attendee recommendations of things to do, week by week to help our bodies adjust to life on the ranch. In addition to increasing our daily steps each week {hence the pedometer}, and increasing our fitness regime, we are to prepare our bodies for the detoxification process, by minimizing the no-no’s listed above.
This week, I had 1/2 cup of decaf on monday, and since then, only that lovely, pure white coffee. It doesn’t clear the cobwebs from my head, but it is warm and pleasant.
Aside from my coffee yearnings, I think that what I will miss most is the pure protein power of meat…I am a carnivore. I also love sipping my bourdeaux blanc…but I have a feeling that I will be so exhausted each night, a blanc bed will suffice.
Are you a coffee drinker? Have you ever withdrawn??

I have been trying to wean myself of caffeine as well. It seems the older I get the more it sends me into a tailspin. The problem is that I actually love holding a warm drink in my hands and sipping it and sometimes decaf just doesn't do it for me. I don't know why. It might be mental. Probably is mental. 🙂 Anyways, good luck preparing for your trip! Can't wait to hear about it.

Sounds hard but fun preparing for your trip! Good luck! And that white coffee sounds very tempting!
