Day 13/14 aftermath of the shift from hell 14 y
I'm testifying to the Holy Ghost power!
I’ve not had nasal congestion through this whole experiment. This morning I woke up with a tremendous amount of multicolored nasal goop. It was disgusting. If I was eating cooked junk I probably would be in much worse shape. No I didn’t even feel like eating! I mean here’s what was in this nurse’s lunchbag:
1. Pickle jar of green smoothie
2. Pint jar of green smoothie
3. Pint jar of lemonade
4. Coffee- chock full of nuts but organic is on my list for this week
I had a serious run in with a coworker during a medpass. Anyone who is a nurse knows that’s it can deadly to interrupt a ... read more Day 11/14 14 y
okay I'm waking up...seriously
My new green smoothie formula is quite filling. It adds more bulk to my poop and wow I just have to remember I can’t guzzle down a peanut butter jar of this stuff LOL!
Fiberfun
2 bananas
rolled oats
sprouted wheatgrass seeds about two tablespoons
spinach (of course!)
dash of cinnamon
dash of angostura bitters
This is VERY filling. I thought I actually had too much this morning! But I ran the numbers through sparkpeople and it comes out about 343 calories. I do not have a reference for sprouted wheatberries. I’m going to measure the oats for accuracy.
Yesterday was my day o ... read more Day 10/14 cravings! 14 y
rawfood;livingfood
Hello folks. I was totally exhausted from last night’s shift. I apologize for no update. Anyway, I was saying to myself Im getting really bored with the green smoothies. The cravings were really bad last night. I thought about everything from slices of meat to cookies. Then I remembered the story of Dave the rawfood trucker AND I didn’t read my bible or say a rosary. I also found out that someone put me down to work on Saturday which means no confession (again).
So anyway I want to go to church for rosary and adoration. I’ll miss confession but it’s important to not break the chain, tha ... read more Day 9/14 14 y
my day so far... suboptimal night sleep so no mass attendance today and green smoothies
I took a tablespoon of castor oil before I went to bed and wow...It worked. I sucked on an organic lime to get the awful taste out of my mouth. BLECH! I got so nauseated by the same this morning that I thought I might be pregnant. Yes I’m trying but that’s another blog. That post will be the mother of all TMI blogs. I really want to have a raw pregnancy, with lots of raw greens, raw eggs and raw stinky french cheese but I digress.
Anyway, my diet roundup for today:
jar of blessed water
1.5 cups of coffee with a teaspoon of brown sugar between the two of them
one jar of green smooth ... read more Tonight's video! 14 y

Sleep! 14 y
still on the green smoothie trip
I went to sleep at almost 1am in the morn. I woke up at around 0630. I was thinking of staying awake but I woke up sluggish. Really wanted to go to church but I sensed alarm bells going off about going to church so I went back to sleep. Finally woke up at 0930 refreshed. Wont be able to attend mass but I’ve not been to confession yet so if I miss one day that’s okay to me.
So far I’ve puttering around in my bathrobe, rode my exercise for twenty minutes had a jug of water and a smidge of coffee. I’m not hungry yet. The supples are getting low. I’ll need to go out to the quickie mart some ... read more Happy Morning Day...Going to praise God 14 y
woohoo! Not in the poor house!
My bank account wasn’t a six car pileup this morning. Praise Jesus!!!! I mean if it was, it would have sucked for five minute then I would gone to church anyway. THANK YOU GOD. :dance: :dance: :dance:
Anyway, yesterday I did bellydancing and had a good sauna session. After church, I’m heading to the gym for morning cardio and weight lifting. I seem to have rediscovered walking since starting this green smoothie thing so I’ll be doing that too.
So far, I’ve had some salt water. I need to move my bowels. The idea of castor oil makes me gag but it’s the only thing that works. I’ll have ... read more My consciousness is now in the InterTubes 14 y

I just want to cry 14 y
financial mini-crisis
I accidently paid my mom’s bill with my account and went negative. Really I could cry but that would be negating the desperate prayer I just prayed to God. Now going to mass today REALLY has not an ulterior motive (we’re all sinful and always doing things for selfish reasons anyway aren’t we?). It’s right out in the open and I’m not ashamed to be a teenager and ask God for a little allowance. Not like I was spending it on something ridiculous. I was paying my mom’s bills while she was away!
JEEPERS!!!

I'm falling asleeeeeeep
I had a second poop at work and felt totally awesome afterwards. The idea of taking swiss kriss and/or castor oil again right is making me gag. Ho boy I totally understand how the old ladies feel when I come at them with milk of mag,etc.
Here’s a run down of what I had at work:
a cup of apple juice but I ended up grabbing my jar of lemonade at the tail end of my medpass.
Went to dinner and had half a cup of coffee with blueberry honey to revive my brain
Had a big cup of smoothie and still have some left. I do not feel hungry but I just can’t bring myself to take any swiss kriss ... read more Happy morning day people 14 y
morning report, church
Rising time by the holy alarm clock Scoobie Snacks aka OT McCracken, Scoobulator, Scoobtastic, The New Soviet Dog, Scratch and my favs Triborough Wrecking Ball and the Pride of Astoria.... 0530. I decided to stay awake and God gave me a lot of energy ans whispered ”Hey since you’re awake why don’t you stop by the House...just sayin’” So I did. I went to early mass.
Had my jar of water, some lemonade and an amino acid pill. I went to the gym for a quick 30 min workout. Later folks visit the page Morning Report 14 y
good start to the morning
Woke up at 7:30
half a quart mason jar of blessed water- I have pictures of the Divine Mercy, holy words written all over this jar. I’ve totally convinced of the work of Dr.Emoto.
half a cup of coffee
My mother called from Trinidad just as I was getting ready to leave for mass so I was late once again. I can just picture God saying ’better late than never’. I’ve not talked to my mother in over a week so it was worth it. She sounds really good, having the time of her life celebrating life after cancer.
Back from mass- I had the rest of a quickie smoothie I made. I tried this new ... read more Shift report 14 y
Yes I survived an 8hr shift at the nursing home!
Wow boy I’m so glad I decided to start this fast two days ago. The shift went okay till I started feeling funny and tested my glucometer. 79!!!! :( I had a cup of orange juice with ice. Tomorrow I’ll carry another jar of green smoothies. I had everything I made. The grannies’ homemade fudge was calling me LOL!!! Strangely I had no cravings for fig newtons.
I had so much energy at the beginning of the shift that I was actually hyper. I noticed that I slowed down a little bit and settled into a pace of managing my first go around.

morning this and that
Last night I got hungry and had a headache. I ended up having two pint mason jars of lemonade (organic lemon juice, molasses and cayenne)and a pint jar of smoothie. I felt a little better. I made one blender jar of smoothie yesterday.
Today I’m making a jar of smoothie for the first part of the day. Later before work, I’m making a workplace smoothie.
What’s the workplace smoothie? Well it’s higher fat and protein so it lasts longer in my belly. My job is very physically, mentally and emotionally intense. A low fat smoothie lasts for about an hour during a medpass then I’m getting hu ... read more Big Boxmart shopping list 14 y

frozen mixed fruit- my hubby’s favorite- 7.84
two bags of frozen dark cherries- 4.76
I tend to use a little more water and less when I want to feel more full. My game plan for work is to have a really thick smoothie before work and a thinner, sweeter smoothie for my first go around which is really...well special. When you have to pass meds for twenty something little old folks who are all sick, take phonecalls, help nurse aides (I go out of my way for CNAs because I used to be ... read more Mighty Whitey 14 y
day 2/14 I might make it longer and do juices only. Who knows?
Big Boxmart is on an organic kick and I’m going to look for white fabric. I want to learn to sew. Apparently, no one wears skirts anymore and I wanted to wear all white to work for Lent. The little old ladies love my grad pic with my nurse cap. I’m an LPN and don’t know if I want to wear a nurse cap. My white turban is my trademark actually and yes I’m developing my own personal brand because everyone should have one. I think I’ve just found a topic for my other blog Emerson’s Coffee House.
