I usually do Protein Power, which basically cuts carbs but allows fruits and veggies, which gives me the balance I need. I don't do much dairy, either, because doesn't agree with me. Anyway, it takes about 4 to 5 days of just protein and greens to detox. Then I add back my allowed fruits and veggies. Anyway, along with that I swim 3 to 4 days a week. If you are game for Jan. 2, then i'm with you! So let's chat! Good to have a buddy!
