Celebrity Detox with Comedian Aida Rodriguez

For many today is the last day of the detox, for Aida the beginning of a new lifestyle. Instead of thinking what I was going to eat, I thought about how I was going to eat from here on out. The regimen that the Full Body Detox offered, kept me in line, but finding what to do now without the restrictions had me a bit frustrated. I ate vegetables all day and felt more energetic than yesterday. I am thankful for this experience and what it will be the cause for in my life…I am committed, more disciplined,…

Saturdays are my favorite days, and they have always been since I was a kid. I ate all fruit today and tomorrow I want to end with vegetables, I want to see how they make me feel. And today I had lots of energy in the morning, but at night I slowed down. I traveled to Arizona for the day and had the most amazing salad. Today, I so enjoyed my solitude! I spent my day reading and revisiting with The Four Agreements…I had a great day and was cool up until I got off stage and they…

Another Friday is here and knowing that I am almost done is exciting. I feel good and I know that I am looking better. I actually hiked with ease today, and moved around so much that the day slipped past me. Everyone keeps asking if I have a new man, funny how people attribute women’s happiness to penis. I actually have not been engaging with anyone sexually for some time now and I certainly won’t do it during this time. I feel great and I am kind of nice these days, too. I performed at a Haiti Relief…

Today I zipped through the day with all of the energy in the world. I had a show tonigt and I was amazing on stage. Others could feel my flow and I really slammed it. Before my show, I went to a friend’s for dinner and he had the nerve to not have anything that I could eat present, knowing that I was on my Detox. I was irate because he told me that I deserved a cheat day. And I told his ass that every day that I have been eating bad is a cheat day. I…

Today is the day I do the radio show so I had to plan for it in advance. I was using my mind a lot today and it was more clear. I can’t focus when I eat bread for some reason and I get really dizzy. I realized today I haven’t been feeling that way. I felt a real connection to the planet today and I have even been more in tune on stage. Everyone kept asking me tonight what I have been doing and when I explained, some told me I was crazy. I would normally defend…

Today, I was very aroused sexually when I woke up in the morning so I took myself on a hike. My senses felt a lot sharper and I was in a great mood, which I haven’t been in for some days. I had to leave 3 food establishments because I couldn’t find anything good to eat and ended up back at a Raw restaurant. When I picked up my daughter, she said that I looked pretty and that made my day. I am exercising plenty of patience with her. I am not thinking about food all the time….

The CrossRoads.. 2 weeks in and I am moving through my day a little faster. Woke up HUNGRY and had a fruit shake that filled me up. My metabolism is speeding up as I feel myself feeling the need to eat more. My friend ate some french fries in front of me and I didn’t even want any. A week ago, I would have needed to leave. It’s MLK Holiday and my friends are cooking out and it was not fun. I had some raw Asparagus today and I have to tell you that it…

Now it has been 2 weeks and I am celebrating because I am almost done. I slept in after my show and felt pretty energized for the day. I read Blink and did some writing and I have been writing more cerebral jokes, no BS, since I have been on the Detox. I have been thinking and feeling on a deeper level and it is turning out pretty good. I performed last night and Guy Torry told me that I have some really smart stuff and that is awesome because that is where I want to be. I…

Today I stayed at home most of my day and cleaned up. I particularly feel the need for every thing to be clean around me. I woke up and hiked with Detox friends and we did a few exercises. Every one around me was really “positive” or so they seemed, which made me the bitchy one. I was cranky and disconnected at the beginning, I was thinking about breakfast. As I hiked and took in the earth, my attitude improved. I remembered hiking once and coming across a Coyote as a woman from Central America told me that…

The weekend is upon us and it is tough to socialize during the detox, I feel deprived. My friends are going to dinner and I can’t go and I don’t want to. I am enjoying the fact that I have been able to do this with consistency. Eating has always been a battle for me. I am not hungry, I have decided to let the herbs be my food and I wont be tempted. I went into my office and felt the urge to take a nap, I had to, I was really sleepy. Taking naps is not…

Today, I decided to stay busy and do something else for my health instead of just thinking about food, I went and got an adjustment. My chiropractor told me that I am shrinking and that this weight loss would be good for my spine. I have been a bit more patient and peaceful with people and my friends joke and tell me that it is because I am weak due to hunger. I disagree, I feel different and today is one of the days where I believe that eating like this is a breeze. I…

The road trip was hard and today I honestly thought about quitting, the morning started chaotically.  I took my herbs without eating anything and I felt very weak.  I did not leave the house, I stayed at home in bed as I felt my energy very low.  I am detoxing in more ways than you think, I have really developed an emotional dependency on food and get angry when I can’t have what my body is telling me what I want. I did some breathing exercises and Yoga and it helped soothe me for a…

Now, today I woke up feeling like I could do anything.  I ate an apple for breakfast and hit the road.  I have been thinking about how much I actually think about food on a daily basis and it has really made me think about my dependency on it.  My scalp and ears have been secreting waste as well and I feel totally gross.  The Detox has made me live in the shower, lol.  I have a show tonight so I have to really plan because I have to travel out of town.  Last week, I had such…

I have been receiving several emails from people telling me that the Detox is unrealistic and that I should stop because I am anemic and so on and so forth.  I am a bit cranky at this time because I am really  hungry and if I eat another grape I am going to scream.  I can’t really move throughout my day because I am going to the bathroom a lot and the smell of cooked food makes me mad.   I ate at a Raw Food’s restaurant and I can honestly say that I am tired…

Variety is the spice of life and this a great thing.  I have been very hungry the last couple of days because my attitude has been all wrong.  I have been concentrating on all of the things that I can’t have instead of being excited about all of the wonderful healthy things that I can have.  I am planning ahead and going to eat; I have been not eating because I can’t eat what I am used to.   I did Yoga with fellow detoxers and it felt good to be around positive energy and people with a…

Today I was hungry!  Which means that my slow metabolism is speeding up.  I had to have snacks on hand and I ate more fruit than usual.  I had a purpose filled and productive day and I feel that I moved with clarity.  I have lost about 2 lbs and I am so glad that the waste is exiting my body, for me it’s about “waste-loss” more than it is about “weight-loss”.  I will certainly plan ahead with my meals for the remainder of the detox and my menstrual cycle is almost completely gone. No cramps this month. …

Energy, energy, energy!  That is what I felt all day today!!  I picked up a couple of raw snacks from Whole Foods and planned for my Friday.  Today, I didn’t drink as much water as I should have and I felt it, but for the most part I felt filled with purpose and direction.  I had a bump on my forehead that was really bothering me and my cycle seems to be getting lighter, unlike my usual.  I feel good and empowered and not eating what I have been eating hasn’t been much of a problem.  I plan…

After such a terrible headache I thought I would feel bad today, but I was wrong.  Today, I had lots of energy, I was able to go do my radio show and fellowship and learn more about the detoxing process.  As a result, I went home and cleaned out my closet.  I am detoxing in all aspects in my life and realized that I was holding on to pain and bad memories. Those are gone now.  I got rid of the clutter around me and things that have been “holding me up”, and I feel very clear right…

Today was a tough day for me because I had a massive headache.  My body was a bit weak and I was nauseous all day.  I went over to the Sun Power Cafe to check out the raw menu and found something that I really liked.  The headache persisted through the night and I had blurry vision and even had moments of vomiting.  It has been too long since my last detox and these toxins are fighting with me because they don’t want to leave my body.  I have been doing too much these last two days, something…

Today was very interesting because on the first day of cleansing, my menstrual cycle joined me.  I started my day with 2 Tangerines and water, water, water.  I felt pretty good and was not as hungry as I anticipated.  I had a wonderful day of Spinach, Cucumbers, Tomatoes, and yummy lettuce.  I did not get sluggish until the end of the day, but I run a long day.  I was up at 5:30 AM…I did see a bit of a break out after my Liver and etc.. capsules, but I suspect that my Liver needs a good flushing, so I will take that as a sign. …
