Thanks, MissNook, for the support. You are right we're both in a journey of self knowledge as well as health. There will be ups and downs but it's all part of the learning. It is good to be reminded of that. I know I can do this. I'm so close and will regret it if I mess it up.

On a lighter note, after I posted my message, I went up to the kitchen, cleaned and chopped 3 bunches of radishes since I know they do well in water. While chopping I decided that I bought such large quantities that it might take me a week just to prep it anyway. Tomorrow I'm working on the two bunches of celery. Maybe I will just use this as a way to remind myself that I've almost finished my goal.

I love to cook. I think the idea of making the soup may be more exciting to me than actually eating it. The fact that the good solid veggies I bought will take a long time to cook works to my advantage too.

Thanks again,
Peanut
