Juice Fast Day 6

Now THAT'S a Seriously Green Juice!!

Well day 6!!!!!!!!!!!

You came in ok but ended being a freaking bitch!  Felt decent most of the day (still low energy but..)  then got bad arm pain.. weird, I have been having this pain in my muscles in the upper back of my arms and in my left shoulder.. it comes and goes but last night I had a hard time getting comfortable in bed they ached so bad.  I remember this happened on my last Juice Fast.. I know it's something my body is working on .. they are about 80% better today!

Sinus yuck has slowed down considerably... I can breathe again!  No more headache this AM.. just slow and low energy.. I KNOW I am not drinking enough juice and Patrick called me just now and told me to go make some juice.. I will soon.. it's weird.. I am NOT hungry!!! Just thirsty.  Joe Cross of Fat Sick Nearly Dead documentary said this happens, much lowered hunger. I wonder if I need to make myself drink more juice for the nutrient??

Personal backyard sauna:
A few months ago I was wanting to go to this Spa here in town to try out their wet sauna.. I thought to myself "it's 90% humidity outside here in FL right now in the Summer.. I might as well just lay out.. get Vit D and a personal sauna at the same time".. SO that's what I've been doing and OMG yes I sweat enough for it to be a serious sauna!

Coffee enema yesterday.. I know.. TMI but there it is.. and really I am just documenting this for me.. I don't think anyone reads my blog.. I want all this documented for myself for the future.

I bought a new body brush to do dry skin brushing but I always prefer to do it wet in the shower.. honestly I am not sure why you would HAVE to do it on dry skin.. I scrub verrrrry well!  LOL!

Deep Breathing:
I detox thru my sinus and my lungs.. I have felt my lungs are heavy and just congested so I started deep breathing yesterday to try to work on that.

Low Energy:  I really have very low energy.. I know I have not been taking in very many calories but I am torn.. I honestly feel like you detox better on lower calorie but I know I need vitamins/minerals as well to aid in healing.  I really don't feel like doing much but sitting in my recliner, reading, watching YouTube juice fast videos and juicing..  I have made a couple pieces of jewelry for clients but I find that I really don't enjoy it.  I want to detox more than anything so I am making sure I am drinking lots of water to make up for the lack of juices.. I may add more juice as this progresses but right now I think I'll just listen to my hunger.

JUICES YESTERDAY::

2 small Cups Coffee with 1/4 C coconut milk (On several juice fast protocols you are instructed to take 1T of Flax or Hemp seed oil - about 120 calories,  a healthy fat to protect your Gall Bladder.  I decided I would go for Coconut milk because it's a good fat as well and also has anti-fungal properties and I am NOT convened that coffee is that much of a problem.. too many studies that show it's good for our brain).. I started back on coffee with coconut milk yesterday (5 days in) because extended juice fasts really need some type of healthy fat IMO...

Large 1 Liter coconut  h20

Green Juice:  one tub of Mixed Field greens, lemon, pineapple, cucumber

Seltzer Water with True Lime brand Watermelon Aqua Fresca powder

Another green juice "Noon Greens" Suja at  4:30

Iced Black Tea at Dinnertime as Patrick ate his dinner. 

The Watermelon Powder I Use.. Real Ingredients, Just Watermelon, Lime, Stevia and Sugar

One Thing to Note! I can look at food and not want to eat!!!  it's like I'm just settled in to this..

Weight:
229 to 218 today on Day 6.. although I am NOT doing this primarily for weightloss I want to document my weight.. I have so many health issues that to me are so much more important than the number on the scale..
