Honour Thy Body - Renaissance Project Despicable Me!

Dear Friends,
A couple of weeks ago, I decided to cut myself off from dairy, hoping to clear my lungs (phlegm and wheezing). Regardless of my love of yogurt and cheese, I was doing just fine, until the doctor said I couldn't have cheese (cholesterol) anymore. Since last night, all I can think about is cheese; French, Canadian, Dutch, Italian and even the Greek Feta that I don't particularly like.

5:30 - alarm clock woke up Body for an appointment with the respirologist
5:35 - Body got out of bed, reluctantly.
5:37 - 6oz weight gain!

Mind is bewildered. It couldn't have been the few crushed raspberries with chia seeds, the hardboiled egg, the bowl of salad and the piece of plain boiled chicken! Was it the chestnut gelato or the handful of cherries and almonds (cholesterol-free calcium) consumed after dinner?

While Mind was trying to figure out what had gone wrong the day before, Vanity dragged Body all over town on foot, for further beautification.
17:35 - Alas! Vanity went a step too far! Now she is kicking herself for letting the hairdresser (not Gabriel) talk her into Keratin hair straightening treatment! Frizz and old-lady curls are gone for 2 months, however the beautiful grey strands turned greenish blond! The hairdresser reassured us it will wash off, but for the next three days, this silver vixen is stuck with the most unflattering hair colour!

47 more days to put up with myself. Aren't you glad you are not me?!
