Excerpt from My Other Blog...

So this morning I got brave and juiced the following:

2 Bok Choys Stalks and Leaves

Handful of Spinach

2 Carrots

1 Apple (I'm still a chump and need that sweetness!)

2 Celery Stalks

The juice was a greenish-orangie color. The taste, not bad, accept for the nasty celery! Ugh, celery does not appeal to me when juiced. It was sooooo overpowering that it gave me a headache! Now I am scared to juice it again, but we'll see. I'm a stubborn person who doesn't get easily defeated.

At ten I had a cup of coffee! Sorry, baby steps. I missed it badly today!!!

For lunch I treated myself to a yummy banana, strawberry, blackberry, and blueberry smoothie with psyllium seed husks. And yes, plenty of filtered water!

I feel great today! However, I also feel overwhelmed. I've been reading too much! I've been looking up juicing recipes and "how to eat raw," and it's overwhelming for a novice like me! I read somewhere not to juice too much of the same thing because your body can build allergies against it! WTFreak?!!! I have to juice the same thing while I am starting out! Why? Well, for one it's cheaper to buy by the bulk, two I need to start out with things that I semi like, and I need to drink things that I don't like more than twice to acquire a taste for it!

If anyone reading this has any tips for me, please, please, please do tell!

Well, that's all for today. I am in the mix of remodeling and redecorating my downstairs and it's taking up LOTS of my time!

My health

Many of you know, that I have been dealing with health issues on and off, for the past three years (maybe more). I am so sick of being told that I am young and "look healthy." Dang it, there is something wrong with me, why can't they find it? It's not normal to throw up after most of your meals, nor is it normal to have severe abdominal pain, debilitating hand swelling, headaches, and always feeling like you are on the verge of passing out. I have decided that I will cure myself. Yes, that is right! I have faith that with the right holistic foods, herbs, and exercise I can cure myself. I am planning on documenting everything I do, on a separate blog. Wish me luck. Today I embark a new journey, to wellness!
