Strangest Thing...

After 10 days on the Opti-Fast diet, my allergies are all but gone.  Let's see, I haven't had bread, pasta, sugar (only a smidge), red meat, or any carbs worth mentioning and, POOF, I don't need to take my allergy medication.  I'm starting to like this.  Moreover, my body is beginning to adjust to the two liquid meals/one solid meal per day.  No more growling (stomach or otherwise), and no headaches in two whole days.  Constipation is easing and I seem to be losing weight.  I can feel it.  I even went out and took a three mile walk yesterday.  Maybe I'm not gonna die after all!
