What's goin’ on everybody? This is your boy Cipha Sounds.

As you know, with the help of Dr. Ian K. Smith from Celebrity Fit Club (sidebar: I guess I'm not a big enough celebrity to actually be on the show… I gotta work on that) I've decided to live a healthier lifestyle. 

The first step of his "Fat Smash Diet" is getting on a nine-day detox. I was little nervous at first, but as you can see, obviously I survived. 

Saying the word "detox" to a junk food junkie sounds unbearable. Now in the last entry I told you that the detox consists of only eating:

• Fruits
• Vegetables
• No more than four egg whites a day
• Oatmeal
• Yogurt
• Two cups of brown rice
• All the water you like
• Chick peas, beans, tofu and lentils

Half the things on the list smell so bad I've never wanted to eat before and the other half I don't mind having here and there but I wouldn't want to eat every day.

The first day I was feeling great… it's like I was starting a new mission. But by the third I was grumpy and cranky, and my peoples didn't wanna be around me. On top of that, I forgot that I had to leave for Vegas to handle some bidness.

Have you ever been to Vegas!?  It's a junkie's heaven!!  There's nothing but In-N-Out Burgers, Jack In the Boxes and a million all-you-can-eat buffets. I definitely almost slipped. Every time I would exit our hotel I would pass a fast food court… the smell alone would make me want to peel my skin off.  I learned to take another route.

I also learned that when you decide to go on a diet, your "friends" f**k with you the most.  These b**ches would tempt me with all sorts of stuff.  My best friend would get annoyed at me and would say things like, "F**k that diet sh**."

In the past that would have been enough to make me quit, but this time around I really wanted to give it my all… I needed to lace up my combat boots and jump in.  I realized that this was a solo mission I was on.  I ended up having to eat alone.

After the 4th or 5th day though, it got much easier. The sugar and grease starts to leave your body, you get used to eating the stuff on the list, and you even start to think of creative ways to keep it fresh.

I haven't mastered the time to do the workout thing yet, so what I eat has been really important.  After the 7th or 8th day people started asking me, "Are you losing weight?" 

The hardest part is over now.  Next time I'll tell you about the next phase of the diet called the FOUNDATION.
