I spent the day planning out a week's worth of meals for a detox/cleanse I've adapted from wholeliving.com.
We've done a detox before, but it included drinking a nasty supplement and 2 months worth of eliminating foods we love.
This is quick, and relatively easy. I'm focusing on the "quick" part. The first 3 days we'll ease in to eliminating foods that build up in our system. Days 4-7 we'll be on a mostly liquid diet--consuming a solid, protein-filled lunch each day. If you're interested in the "plan," I'm happy to send you my excel spreadsheet with our meals, what to eliminate, include, or replace.
This detox is part of our family's 2010 "Plan" (I'm working on a cooler title.) With 32 hours in a car over the course of 4 days, Matt and I had the opportunity to discuss the changes and goals we want to make this year, and for the future. We're still establishing strategies and tactics, but we're going to initiate some ideas while we finish the master plan. Doing this detox is part of the health & wellness portion of the plan.
Our 2010 "Plan" includes areas such as: Faith, Finances, Friends, Family, Health & Wellness (ran out of F's), Personal Growth, and Education. There might be more, but that's what I've got so far. I'm sure a spreadsheet will be created soon. SimpleMom.net has an awesome worksheet that we're using. (She's got a lot of other awesome stuff too, so check her out.)

I love that you and Matt talk so actively and openly about these subjects -- taking stock, reaching forward together. Ryan and I do a similar thing, and I can't tell you how important it is to me, personally, and to our marriage. It makes such a difference in the quality of daily life, in preparing so the present can be a source of joy and fulfillment rather than a place of longing.
