Day 20 - Im losing track of what day it is on Juice...lol

I'm losing track of what day I am on.  So, I had to go back and figure it out.  So, it looks like day 20  The 1st full day was on a Wednesday, so tomorrow will be 3 whole weeks on nothing but fresh juice.  It's awesome.  My belly is almost 3 inches smaller already and my clothes are not snug.  I actually got a shirt on today that I could not get on in the past.  My belt slide to the 3rd hole in the other day.  That's awesome.

So, I am seeing changes in my body.  The Kids and K say my face looks thinner.  I can see it some, but not totally.  It just seems so far to go.  But, the quick results and visuals are a great motivator.  I'm glad I extended the fast.  30 days doesn't see like it will be that hard.  It is getting easier when sitting with family and they are eating.  We have been making better meals for K and kids, and they smell awesome. 

Yesterday, she made a Kale bean soup, it looked so good.  I have to resist the food still.  We have had a few events which had food, it was tough with some of the smells, visual, and temptations, but all in all, I am committed to see this through.  I want the 30 day mark and possibly even 60.  It is tough to argue against the results so far.  I really needed something like this to break all the cycles.

I did have a break down in licking a spoon the other day.  I was making a dessert for a church thing, and man, the smell of sugar and memory of how good it taste was overwhelming.  I just did it.  It was so super sweet that I had to go brush my teeth to get rid of taste.  Oh well, a minor slip.  I did taste the broth from soup yesterday, yummy.  I could have just drank that for lunch...lol

I do look forward to eating good food.  I'm not totally sure I can resist the fast food junk food stuff yet.  But, the almost push to turn into their places is going away.  Also, I noticed that the soup was naturally salty, where as teh kids thought it needed more.  So, my taste buds are shifting somewhat.

Been researching the local CSA stuff more.  I think we are getting close to committing to one.  It really is a choice between 2 of them.  One is a longer established farmer, a little less money, but sounds like a little less food.  Versus a smaller guy with a meat option of farm raised meat combined with a little larger food box each week.  He is a newer farmer, so risk element may be higher.  So, we will decide this week.

One last thing, I am struggling with getting water in me.  I just don't drink enough.  You'd think I would not dehydrate with so much juice, but it is more of a food source.  I am a little dehydrated today from almost no water yesterday.  So, I really have to adjust to that.  The drinks and soda will be a trigger for me.  I am hoping to adjust to wanting and desiring more water vs. other drinks.

Well, have a great day...

Eat Well, Juice Well...
