Easy RAW Lettuce Wrap Recipe – New Years Health Standard Process Cleanse Diet (Day 18)

It’s Day 18 of 21 on the New Years health Standard Process cleanse diet. We are finally in the final stretch and I can already taste the steak, coffee and pork that I will soon be enjoying. I’m going to especially enjoy the pork ever since my friend Katie tagged me in a photo of roasted suckling pig chicharrón from her trip to Bali. FUCK that was mean! Overall I feel pretty good and I don’t need as much sleep as the first week. I’ve also lost about 3 Kg or 6.6 lbs already even though that wasn’t the goal of this diet cleanse. I think I lost about 8 lbs the last time I did this last Spring.

I could also really use a beer right now. I’m tired of the odd looks I get when ordering glasses of sparkling water and orange juice at bars although staying sober may have helped me last weekend when made a bit of money at a poker tournament.
