Although I haven't read all of the prep material (we printed and bound it today; that'll be my new bedtime reading), I am fairly certain that you are not supposed to freak out about all the things you suddenly won't be able to eat and then proceed to procure and eat them all, "one last time".
Which is what, to an extent, I've been doing.
Foods which I have happily eschewed this year have suddenly become must-have items. I have been buying more takeaways (which I can't afford) and then finishing these larger, more calorie-laden portions beyond the point of fullness. Honestly. How dumb can you get?
And I've been feeling the effects, too. My output at the gym today was embarrassing, I've been headachey on and off for the past few days and I don't have as much energy as I did a week ago (and heaven knows that it wasn't that huge to begin with). I know that there are probably aspects of the fact that I'm looking for a job and so on that are impacting upon my mood, energy and food choices, but I think the real culprit is my own fear of never eating "tasty" foods again. Never mind the fact that, really, they are only tasty because of their high fat and salt content.
I really think I will be quickly feeling better during and after this detox. (Although I understand that the early stages can induce headaches as the toxins leave your system. I have a feeling that next week is going to be as close as I get to migraines...)
Current feeling: headachey and wishing that I could just start already
