Diary of a detox diet - day 5

Breakfast and Lunch: absolutely the same as yesterday. Due to today's side effect (see below) using my imagination to plan food was never really going to happen today.
Dinner: Brown rice with steamed cauliflour, onion and mushrooms, covered in various seeds and parsley. Desperately boring, but to be fair it wasn't one of Carol's recipes, I just couldn't be bothered to cook anything fancy. Also salad with seeds plus grapes for afters.
Drinks: Same as usual, will have to get some different herby tea things for a bit of a change. I managed a couple of camomile teas, and comforted myself by reminding myself that at least it wasn't nettle tea, which (believe it or not) is even more horrible than camomile.
Today's Exercise: swimming (not yet, but if I go later this evening I pretty much get the pool to myself. As a crap swimmer who hates getting splashed this is a very good thing indeed).
Good thing about today: it's Friday, and I don't have to go to work for 2 days!
Number of chocolate cravings: Only 1, but it was a really really big one - sigh.
Side effect du jour: I am soooo tired. Apparently this is normal, though I'm not sure if it's due to the diet or due to the fact that this is the first week in 4 where I've worked a full 5 days. I went home yesterday evening totally ready for a weekend, I can't tell you how much of an effort today was!
