So, despite getting my enema kit in the mail yesterday, I haven't attempted one yet. I think I will soon, but I don't have any coconut oil. In other TMI/BM related news, all my bm's today have smelled like roast turkey. Weird, no? This morning I tried to drink a green smoothie instead of a green juice, but it had way too much spinach pulp to be tasty. It was much better after I strained it for the juice alone. It was spinach/celery/apple/lemon. Yum yum! Right now, I'm drinking tea. Here's a gr… Continue

I started today with a quart of gross green juice. It sounded nice in theory, but it didn't settle in my tummy (or on my tastebuds) very well. It was spinach/celery/cucumber/orange juice. At lunch, I ate. I actually ate. I was on a tour of a power plant for school, and they fed us lunch. They had a great spread of fresh fruits and veggies, so I went for those, and then, after much deliberation, I decided to eat one of the sandwich quarters that were there, too. It was tomato, onion, lettuce, pe… Continue

I'm working on my last quart of juice for today, and I have to say that today has been a rollercoaster of emotions. It's nuts! This morning, I woke up feeling a little groggy, but I was energized immediately after skin brushing (got to love it). I made a great green juice, and I was in a great mood all morning. Around lunch time, I decided to get crazy and make a straight fruit juice, which I haven't done up until this point. Oranges were on sale at the store the other day, and I'd been excited… Continue

Today I write this as I'm slurping down my last juice of the day. And by slurping, I really mean gagging. I decided I would do the "modified" part of my juice feast after working out today, which meant a green smoothie. It was just kale/banana/water, but then I decided to add spirulina and hemp oil to it. For some reason, it made me want to hurl. So, I squeezed the juice out of it, and added it to the green juice I had left to drink (beautiful green juice, might I add). Now it's all pretty gross… Continue

Creative title, huh? Today, like yesterday, I didn't get my full gallon of juice in. I think part of the problem is only having pint sized jars for my juice. Here's what I had: 16 oz. Spinach/celery/cucumber/lemon juice 24 - 30 oz. Chard/mango/lime juice 32 oz. Carrot/apple/celery/cucumber/ginger with some spirulina powder (that clumped at the bottom of my jar, and I got a mouthful at the end of the juice) Lots of water -- at least a quart or two. I have some carrot/apple/celery/cucumber/ging… Continue
