DAY SIXTEEN

I liked what I saw in the mirror today. I’m really seeing a difference. And my skin is getting soft. I was hungry here and there, but often wanted to finish what I was working on and put the juicing off. Meals were timely, though, and I got an extra pint in.

Today I emailed my sister in Canada and asked her if she’d ever considered juicing for her health. She’s very slim and eats well, a lot of vegetarian and vegan stuff. She suffers from eczema and so do her little girls. She was also struck with bell’s palsy at the birth of her son a couple of years ago. The right side of her face is paralyzed. She’s a beautiful girl. Anyway, she said she HAD considered it, but had read that doing it while nursing was not advised. So maybe later. (my words)

My daughter who had planned on juicing for one week, then moving to once per day had a mental breakthrough today. She said she had a chicken and rice dinner last night. She’d been very much looking forward to it, especially near the end of the week. But she said the food did not meet expectations. It was just food. And she felt terrible all evening. She likes juicing. She says it’s simple, she always knows what’s for dinner (or other meal), she feels great all day, it’s the easiest meal to clean up, and she will continue to melt away her extra pounds. This announcement (over the phone) made me very happy. I want her to be healthy and happy and comfortable in her skin. So, she was pretty excited about that realization. She said she won’t beat herself up if she decides to have a meal here and there.
