You see my blog on my juicefeasting stopped at day 5.

I was blogging on the globalJuiceFeast.com site – I juiced for 35 days. I’ll eventually get all the blogs I posted over there – over here. Right now I am starting on MyFoodDiary.com to keep track of my raw food diet – its kind of fun and very interesting to input ingredients of my raw recipes and see the nutrient data on them. For example, I have been on a watermelon juice kick – MFD didn’t have the info on raw fresh watermelon juice, but I found it on line – and discovered it is full of potassium. 

Of course, since its a summer fruit and we need the potassium when we sweat. It also has lycopene a powerful antioxidant. All of your red fruits will have lycopene – tomatoes, pink grapefruit, persimmons, papaya.  

Remember to purchase the variety with seeds – they taste better and aren’t hybrids.

Day 5 and it is starting to feel like routine now. Released another pound. Noticed a bit of mucus in my eyes today and had to blow my nose often. So yea on the toxins leaving the body!

Sitting at the computer working today I couldn’t get warm. I finally made me a cup of that ginger, lemon, honey tea that David and Katrina had on their video the other day. Yummm-meee. I added a dash of cayenne and a couple dashes of cinnamon. Oh it warmed me up and made me think of sitting by a warm Christmas fire!

I’m doing the daily 4 quarts, enema, MSM, and started some morning yoga today. I also add a dash of kelp and dulce to almost every green juice. And I drink rejuvelac everyday – love it. More fermenting on the counter right now. And I have some wheatgrass in its 5 day of growing. So pretty.

I really get a lot of inspiration from everyones postings and blogs and love the daily video from David and Katrina. Without anyone around me to share this exciting adventure with – this site is my support. I’ve mentioned it to friends and family and no one even pretended to be interested.

Evening – Inspirational Messages
Finally I had some real cravings – cravings just for food, something to chew on. Not any food in particular. But I made some hot tea and browsed these message boards and it passed. I jumped right on it when I felt that these were such strong feelings.

This also helped: I made some little business card size cards that have inspirational messages for me.
One of them says: “Cravings are only for the moment, my health is forever.”
And another: “Imagine how you will feel after accomplishing this juice feast!”

Go to http://www.studiojules.com/rawcards.html to download a PDF of some cards for you!They are 10 up on a page – print them, cut them out, tape them everywhere! I have some on the cupboard doors that I stare at when I am juicing. And one on my dashboard of my car!

I’m am happy that I had a weak moment, actually I can’t say “weak moment” since I think its only natural that the body is putting out these messages – it means that things are moving, changing, healing.

My dog and I had a really nice long walk in the park today – It was so beautiful out and some of the trees are starting to bud bright green leaves. When we returned, I finished a quart and about 30 minutes later I became extremely tired. I took a nap and slept for almost 4 hours hard. This is the 2nd time that has happened, I’m glad my office is at home and I had the time to take that rest. But now I am staying up late to get some work done!

The hot tea was really satisfying as I didn’t want to drink juice this late.

Oh, I made a quart of honey dew melon juice today – it was amazing! Almost too sweet to drink. Half a melon = 1 quart!
