Tweet! Tweet! Closing Out Week One!
Yippeeeeeeee! I made it through a whole week already! Seven days of juicy goodness! I feel SO much joy and gratitude for the past week!
For the fruit portion of today's menu, I juiced a small pineapple, two oranges and some strawberries. Yum! Too bad I never got around to drinking it. It seems that greens is what my body was craving today, so that's what I gave it. When it got late I worried that drinking the fruit juice would spike my blood sugar before bedtime. Not to worry, though. It will make a delicious fruity breakfast for me in the morning :)
I am awash in juice right now. Swimming in liquids! I feel like I'm drinking soooooooo much! And I'm drinking ALL DAY LONG! I'm trying to alternate juice with nearly the same intake of water, so it seems I've always got a glass of something sitting next to me. For something new, Bok Choi will be in tomorrow's mix. I bought the most beautiful head of it today at Co-op. It's supposed to be pretty mild tasting and it looks like it will gift me a lot of juice.
No BM's for two days now, so I'm starting to wonder what's up (maybe nothing). I seem to be eliminating everything through my kidneys (and forever running to the bathroom). I'll be starting on cascara sagrada tomorrow and plan to stay on it until around day 40 or so. I've read that this is a pretty strong herbal laxative, so I'll be taking it with great care. Hopefully the combination of cascara sagrada and the occasional enema will stimulate my colon and keep things moving on out.

Energy: I'm wasn't feeling CRAZY energetic today, but I did have plenty of energy to take care of the tasks at hand. I would describe today's energy as calm. I feel peaceful, centered, and rather introspective.
Physical Detox: I did have a mild headache this morning, but it didn't last long. In the past 24 hours I've also had some mild abdominal discomfort-just things making their way toward the door I'm sure!
