This finish line is near :-(


Gotta admit, I'm a little sad to see the end in sight. This has been one hell of an experience! I have considered going just one more week, and I still may, but I'm afraid Kiersten will feel obligated to continue with me. It's time for her to be done. She did well, and I'm proud of her but she's only 19 and doesn't have nearly the amount of crud built up in her system as I do, and she's losing weight, which she doesn't need to do. She's only 130 lbs to begin with (must be nice) lol.
I'm still waiting for this giant burst of energy.....today I "napped" for 2.5 hours! I used to get that at bedtime. I felt fine, just sleepy today. My knees are still swollen from my 5 mile adventure the other night, oddly enough not sore. So I decided to skip my walk tonight *shame on me*. I have guilty feelings about that as I write this. I'm not perfect, I screw up, and I guess I still make excuses. But I know I'm still in the game.....my favorite jeans fell off me today! Literally fell off me. I was in Jewel and had a handful of produce ( will NEVER by produce from them again. Was in a pinch cuz I needed just a few things and Pete's closes at 10p) I was walking and felt my pants start to slip but figured they were just a little loose, and they made it below my hip bone before I was able to put the stuff down and grab em! A little embarrassing but exciting at the same time. I haven't felt that skinny in a long time! LOL. When I went to get my jammies on tonight, I didn't even have to unbutton or unzip them, I just shimmied them right off ( those burlesque classes really paid off!!)
Today was my mom's first day of outpatient therapy. She did awesome! I can't believe how well she is getting around. She even went out to get the mail today! She lives in a townhouse and has community mailboxes at the opposite end of the complex, roughly 1000 feet away! I hope this means she's gonna work super hard during therapy and get back to being 100% independent quickly. I'm sure she will. :-)
Made a trip to Jamba Juice today and got my extra large jug-o-juice. Berry upbeet...yummmm! Now that is one drink I will never feel guilty about "super sizing"! Actually thought seriously about franchising a Jamba Juice here in Oak Lawn til I read the requirements. Gotta have 350k in liquid assets and have a net worth of 1m. SERIOUSLY?! Maybe next year. LMAO!!!! Then I though about getting a part time job there! OMG, I'd never eat food again. So I decided against it. hahaha.
As far as juice goes today, I nailed it. Uhm, don't remember what I made today though. My Jamba juice counted as 2 juices, and I made 3 more. So I got close to 3 liters today. Let's not discuss water, ok? Making ANOTHER batch of Hippocrates soup. I'm so addicted. The smell is making me drool on myself a little. OK, a lot! I've decided when I break my fast Friday I will go all raw for a week. Fruits and veggies of course! Primarily veggies since I haven't focused a ton during this detox. But RAW, whole, intact veggies I can eat all day! Love em! So it'll be a little yummy game of catch up.
That's about all the news I have today. Thanks for reading. See ya tomorrow. Same place, uhm, probably a different time. lol. Til then.....JUICE ON!!!!
