92 Day Juice Feast - Day 2

Good evening - well - at least it's evening here in SoCal. The crickets are chirping, and I just came back from a nice brisk walk with my recent favorite companion, Topanga, the chow retreiver mix who belongs to my roommates :) Her excitement to go for a romp motivates me to get out and breath this fragrant country air! I felt energized as I visualized my desired body and improved physical abilities.

The scale said I lost 3.5 lbs today. Not bad for my first day of feasting on fresh fruit and vegetable juices. I am still having food cravings, mostly popcorn. One compulsive behaviour which I plan to transition out of. The triggers to eat are frequent. Anything from watching a video to good news, to stress, to feeling tired...all emotional triggers to eat. However, I am on a juice feast and remembered the oh so popular quote "nothing tastes as good as thin feels". Who wrote that anyway?

Today I woke up feeling very "dense". It helped to have a stimulating conversation with my roommate and later take in a nice guided meditation. My journal also got a healthy entry this morning. I wondered though, why I felt so heavy. Was it emotional? Was it changes in my body? A detoxing symptom? I had no desire to get up out of bed. Weird. Maybe I need to get to bed earlier. I didn't retire till 1:11 am last night.

The weather has been divine! Crisp and invigorating. It really helped snap me out of my morning stupor. After my green juice and later peach juice I felt renwed and ready to MOVE.

Today's menu was:

My special hot lemonade: lemon, olive oil, sea salt, apple cider vinegar, hot water

Morning Green Juice: celery, beet greens, red leaf lettuce, apple, ginger
maca, bee pollen, hemp oil (20 oz.)

Spirulina Flakes with olive oil & apple cider vinegar

Peach/Apple Juice (12 oz.)

Beet/Carrot/Apple/Ginger Juice (20 oz.)

Green Juice: same as above w/out the superfoods & oil

Cup of Rose Hip tea w/agave


So there is Day 2 of my new adventure!
Thanks for reading :)

Cheers, :D
