March 19 - Day 6 Felt pretty good today, energy and mood stable again. Sore throat greatly decreased, though I had some mucus to deal with in its place. Whatever it is appears to be moving out of me at a clip and I'm grateful for it, whether it's detox or a cold or whatever. My stomach has been making incredibly loud gurgling noises all day. I was worried my coworkers were going to come over to investigate (or otherwise deal with Jabba the Hut who was, by the sound of it, eating somethin… Continue

March 18 - Day 5 Sore throat all day today. Weirdly enough this was eased somewhat by the most *vile drink ever*, a green juice I made with, among other things, an entire HUGE head of mustard greens. HATE - it burned in my mouth, and each swallow was a struggle, all 2 quarts of it. But afterwards it soothed my throat immensely. I almost almost got in the recommended gallon today. I've been really close every day (and actually made it one day) and today I thought for sure I would… Continue

March 17, Day 4 Happy St. Patrick's Day. :)~ No headache today, and no dips in energy either. But strong cravings for cooked food, and not healthy stuff, either. All day, on and off. No worries, I made it and I know I can continue. Little arguing with Vanya and his aloof/cold reaction to that hit me pretty hard, but I don't know that I was any more emotional today than I have been in the past. Little sore throat-ish tickling in the back of my throat. I hesitate to call this detox, sinc… Continue

March 16 - Day 3 I feel great to be on Day 3 and I think my headache may be gone. Probably will come back though, as I have an extremely busy day today. Had to get myself and the kids ready for church by 9am, since I have a meeting with the Sunday School President at 9:30. Church from 11-2, and VT this afternoon until about 6pm. Then Vanya wants "date time" this evening. And somewhere in there I need to find a few hours to do all the juicing. :)~ The green juice today is VERY intense. Bu… Continue

March 15 - Day 2 I was asleep by 12:30 last night and didn't wake up until 8:20. So weird! I'm usually wired until about 2am and then up by 7 or 7:30. Headache still persists this morning, and it seems a little stronger than yesterday. Otherwise I am doing fine. It feels good to be on this fast - now on day 2, it feels like something I'm officially *doing*, not just playing at. Also if I can get a few more days under my belt, I can count on momentum to carry me through and keep me in line… Continue
