Day 25.....morning 18 y
Still sick, but down 22.4 pounds
I slept horrible last night. Didn’t get much sleep. Laid there so long awake that I had a terrible headache.
I’m feeling better now, except for the continual sore throat and gunk running down my sinuses.
I’m down 22.4 pounds. Skin brushed. I’m looking better and am glad I’m able to fit my clothes so much easier. My legs still rub together when I walk, but not so bad.
Going shopping today with my mom, sis, mil, and my 2 girls. I hope I’m up for it. I’m sure I’ll be fine; except when my mom finds out that I’m fasting. Oh well, I’m almost done anyway ... read more Day 24.....end of day 18 y
Still sore throat, sinus infection, but had ENERGY!!
Another one bites the dust!!
Woke up this morning and my throat hurts worse than it did yesterday. Lot’s of gunk coming up out of my throat and now a sinus infection. Skin brushed. But, I had energy today!! I got a lot of housework done, went to work, church, and now I’m pooped!
I hope I feel better tomorrow, I’m going shopping with mil, mom, and sister. At least I’ll get some walking in. Actually, I’d like to go walking before we leave. All depends on the weather.
6 more days!
Good night, I’m off to bed to be up at 6am.

I have a viral infection
I woke up with a sore throat this morning. Yesterday at work a family of four came in and they all had viral infections, along with 2 other people. I skin brushed and then went to see my chiropractor. I have a viral infection also. I don’t know if it’s because of being around those other sick people, or because of detox, or both!! So I took some lysine for the viral infection.
I’ve been having all this gunk come up out of my throat. I’ve been fatigued and weak today.
I looked at my tongue today and there’s only a faint layer of white!! Almost gone!! WooHoo!

Just a blah day
I didn’t do much today, just kind of a blah day. Stressed out over a situation here, I’m trying to deal with it in a healthy way but it doesn’t always work out that way.
I had a taste of my sons tomato soup today, it tasted funny. I had orange juice for breakfast and watermelon juice for dinner.
8 more days!!
I really wanted to eat today, being stressed out and all, but I didn’t.

Down 20 pounds and one size smaller
Well, I got on the scale and I hit 20 pounds !! YAHOO!!! It made my day. I skin brushed. I didn’t do my weight workout this morning because I had to leave early and I was up late last night.
I went with my friend to her sons state wrestling meet. There must have been 3,000 people there! It was so noisy. And the thing is, I always get a headache in really loud places, and I didn’t!! WooHoo! I was lethargic though.
My face seems to be lightly breaking out today. My tongue still has 2 white lines on it. My mouth is dry and yucky tasteing. My body was pretty achy today ... read more Day 20.....end of day 18 y
Feeling fatigued, but not too bad
I’m feeling ho-hum again, actually I have for 3 days, ever since my last ’great’ day which was day 17. I’ve been having this thick, sticky mucus in my throat. I skin brushed this morning.
My friend is visiting from up north, so I didn’t go walking, but her being here kept me busy. She won’t be leaving until tomorrow.
I’ve been thinking about my post-fast, more seriously. I should, I only have 10 days left.

17 pounds down and 3 inches off waist
I finally lost some weight after 5 days of going up and down. I’m at 17 pounds and 3 inches off my waist.
I skin brushed and left for my colonic. It went well. I passed a lot of mucus and some old stool. It wasn’t black, but it was dark brown. I’ll be going for another one and the end of my fast...which is in 11 days!! She said that I released really well. She did a lot of tummy massage, I liked that.
I haven’t wanted much juice the last couple of days. Today it was all water. I did get another small headache this morning when I got up, but I didn’t have it long. I have a ... read more Day 18.....end of day 18 y
Headache in morning, but better by afternoon
I gotta make this brief I’m on my way to have a colonic (it’s actually morning of day 19).
Day 18 morning I woke up with a terrible headache because I layed in bed while awake. It’s been like that for about 3-4 years, I have to get up right away or headache!. I skin brushed, weight workout and then left to buy fruits and veggies. Going out usually helps me to feel better, and it did!!
Later I walked 2 miles in 32:06 minutes. Felt real good!! WooHoo! Mouth is dry.

I'm so glad for a great day
Had a great day! But I was short tempered a few times.
I went for a 2 mile walk which took me 32:25 minutes. The sun did not shine like it was suppose to. It was cloudy by 11am, oh well. Tomorrow it’s suppose to be 65* and partly sunny! WOW! That’s not normal for us this time of year.
My tongue isn’t so fuzzy, but it’s still a bit white. I’ve only had water today. This evening I’m real tired and a slight headache.
I’m so glad that I felt good today, makes all those other days worth it. 13 more days!! I’ve been thinking about what I’m going to do after my fast but haven ... read more Day 17.....morning 18 y
WooHoo! It's an awesome day!
Went to bed last night and was talking to hubby about my Easter dilemma. And come to find out, I was wrong!! I thought Easter was on the 9th, but it’s on the 16th!! So I’m ok!! I won’t mess up my 30 day fast!! WooHoo!
While I was skin brushing this morning I noticed that my lower legs were swollen a bit; edema. So THAT’S why I haven’t lost weight, I’m gaining it in my legs! And I think it’s because I haven’t been drinking enough water. So, today is an all water fast. Yup! Actually, I don’t feel like fixing juice anyway, so it’ll give me a break. Now, why does my body want to hang o ... read more Day 16.....end of day 18 y
I made it through the day
Well y’all, I made it through the day! It was tough. *whew
I started to feel a bit better around 3pm. I made an appointment for a colonic for Friday morning.
My mom just told me that I’m having Easter. I don’t know if I can take being on the fast for Easter. Cooking the food, looking at it, smelling it, and then all the comments from the family!! I may stop a day or two sooner. I don’t know!!! What do you all think?? I really would like to hit 30 days, but it’s going to be extra tough. And I could always do another fast in April or May.

Another low day, with a headache
I woke up groggy this morning, and then got a headache and still have it. I hope my body is doing some heavy duty cleaning; because I feel so low, fatigued, cold, weak, and lazy. My weight is still around the same, just goes up and down a few pounds. I guess that veggie broth hurt my progress. I won’t have it again, I’ll get back to my cold juices.
My thinking has not improved about eating. I still want to eat what ever I want after the fast is done. The question is: will I let myself have what ever I want? Will I fall back into the horrible eating pattern I wa ... read more Day 15.....end of day 18 y
Fatigued, short tempered, PMS time!
This morning was ok. I think I have a vag. yeast infection, maybe. Healing crisis? I skin brushed and did an enema.
I did go for a 2 mile walk, but I was slow, took me 35:30 min. I’ve been fatigued all day. I think PMS is hitting me. I just wanted to EAT something! And I’m short tempered. That’s PMS. I haven’t wanted to do anything. Blah, blah, blah. I hope this don’t last too long, I’m weak minded right now. I don’t even want to juice anything.
Well, I’m half way done, unless I decide to go longer. I haven’t had that many ’great’ days. I don’t think I’m asking to much ... read more Day 14.....end of day 18 y
Made veggie broth, feeling a little better.
I did my skin brushing and weight workout this morning.
The sun never shone like it was suppose to; it didn’t come out to stay until 6pm. :( I didn’t go for a walk.
I did make some veggie broth. I had to have something hot with a good flavor. So I put potatoes, carrots, onion, garlic, 2 boullion cubes, tomato paste, parsley, salt, pepper, & cayenne in pot with water. Simmered for an hour. YUM!! I hope all the ingredients were ok, I hope it doesn’t mess up my detoxing. I drank quite a bit, it did upset my tummy a little bit. So I didn’t juice but only once today, the r ... read more Day 14.....morning 18 y
15.6 pounds lighter, feeling better
I’m down 15.6 pounds. Really hasn’t moved much the last couple days.
The sun is shining, I’m feeling much better. I skin brushed and did my weight workout. Enjoying a tall glass of fresh orange juice. The sun is suppose to stay out all day (that’s rare around here) and temps will be in the mid to high 40’s. So I’d like to go for a walk later.
My tongue is still white covered, but not as much. My mouth is still yucky tasting and dry. Yesterday my body was achy.
Off to a great day!

Low energy and fatigued all day
Boy, today I was fatigued all day. Didn’t do much, just a bit of house work and that was it.
Everything is smelling so good, looking good, and I bet it’s tasting good too!
I guess not much to report, I’ve just been so low energy today that not much is going on. Hopefully tomorrow will be a high energy day.

First time that I gained weight
This is the first time that I gained weight. It’s no big deal, I just try to figure out why. Maybe my body is hanging onto more fluids right now.
This morning I’m having a tough time getting going. Don’t really feel like doing much. But I know that once I get started, I’ll be fine.
