Day 2 – It’s a Lifestyle not a Fad

juice feast

Woke up really early feeling rested and energtic. Walked the dog, cleaned the kitchen and mopped the floor. Lots of energy! Made my first quart of the day.

2 pound weight loss from yesterday. Didn’t do the recommended enema – didn’t need to – twice. Also, I have been checking my blood sugar and blood pressure for the past few days. Both are in the normal range, though the blood pressure could be lower I think. Pretty good considering the amount of weight I need to lose.

It’s a wonderful thing to be connected through the Global Juice Feast to a world of awesome raw beings. I had given up looking for support and decided that I would have to be my own support. I wasn’t one of those that learned about raw and living food and changed overnight. After a rough start and finally discovering that cooked food is an addiction – (thank you Victoria Boutenko!) I am on firmer raw ground now. After I attended the 2 week retreat at the Creative Health Institute – I was on my way.

Last year I tried to accomplish a 92 day juice feast – but only did a few days. My body was not ready for it all. I’ve been mostly raw now and feel lots better and feel that this feast is different. I am so excited about it and the support on the GJF site.

Reading everyones blogging on the site shows me that we all have so much in common. When most begin to learn about raw – we inherently know it is the best thing for us. I’ve never been a fanatic about much but this can change the world!

I wanted to make sure I was using the word inherently correctly and looked it up: “existing in someone or something as a permanent and inseparable element.”
Permanent and inseparable is right. Some call this ‘raw food thing’ a fad. . . But as you all know – it’s most defiantly a lifestyle.

There was a time at the beginning of my raw journey that I wish I had never heard of it – because now that I knew it, I couldn’t un-know it. But I was only thinking that because I was struggling. Now I am thankful and happy that I am on the vibrant, healthy, raw living food path.

Today is Sunday. It’s is going to be a beautiful day. I’m going to spend my time today, cleaning, playing, planning, walking, juicing – while I have all this energy – ’cause I know the detox is coming…
