Day 14 - Wow 2 weeks...

WOW!!!  Gratz - made it to 2 weeks.  Today has been a better day.  I was actually tired today early on, but took a nap and felt much better afterwards.  This was probably the 1st nap I have needed in 2 weeks.  I have been sleeping so much more soundly.  Plus, my snoring has almost totally stopped.  All within a few weeks.  I have lost over 1 1/2 inches on my belly and chest measurements.  All my clothes are starting to get a little baggy also.  So, no tight clothing at this point.  It is a little odd to me to not be pulling and tugging on clothes or to feel self conscious about them being stretched.  So, If this keeps up, well it will, I will be needing different cloths.  It will be so nice to have to by new clothes because I am getting smaller, vs buying when My other clothes are too tight.  So, that will be a new thing that hasn't happened in decades.

The juicing has been going well.  I have stuck with simple kinds of things with 2-4 ingredients.  With the fruits having apples and the veggies using carrots.  That just reminded me that I am out of apples...oh crap and oh well, will have to make a produce run tomorrow.

I have been researching more about CSA's and growing some food on our own.  we did get bad news that our CSA option fell through, but they did supply a back up farmer for us.  I will have to find out about that in the next few days.  Also, the Green Beans thing won't deliver to us in Crestwood, we are only a few miles outside of delivery area right now, so I might see if they will bend on it a little.  So, the whole process of getting food or organic stuff is worrying me some.

I have probably watched too many documentaries about the food industry and it is scary to say the least.  But they all come back to growing our own food and support the local farmers and farmers markets and doing CSAs.  So, I am seeing that to be a part of our future.  Just putting the pieces in place in and learning more about it all.  I will post something once I have choices that are more solid.

Well, hang in there if you are taking this adventure and you can do it.

Eat Well, Juice Well...
