Interesting Day

Today has been somewhat of an interesting day. I started this morning with the alarm going off at 6:30a, so that I could get to the farmer's market. Man...I was able to get a nice amount of produce. When I got in the car, I realized that I had not brought any water with me and I started to panic initially. But, I made it through and I did not get sick, however when I walked in the house I got a large cup of water.

Today was the big day that I was scheduled to attend an 8 hour training class. I was a bit nervous because I didn't know where I would store my juice. But, I know that I did not want to set myself up for failure. Therefore, when I came in from the farmer's market I immediately started to make a few juices to take with me.  I made it through the day without any sickness, but I will mention that I was totally exhausted. Also, while I was in the kitchen making the juices for the day I was perspiring so badly. In addition, my throat has been so scratching and mucus seems to be draining badly. As I completed research  I noticed that during the second stage of a detox fast is when the mucus seems to start to drain almost feeling as though I have the flu. I have put shea butter on my nails and hands because my skin seems to be peeling and very painful. I've noticed that the main slogan of a juice fast should be..."NO PAIN, NO GAIN".  This is hard business because you have to constantly be coaching yourself through each second, minute, hour and day..
My family was eating tonight in front of me and boy I became so irritable. I felt offended that my husband was eating guacamole with chips..That is my absolute favorite..he sat right nest to me and had his way..All I was thinking was "HOW RUDE". Well, my mind was telling me that I wanted some but I am fine with this new healthy life that I am seeking without all of the fatty foods.. "ALL OF THE TIME". Overall, today was a good day..but I am definitely feeling the results of my body trying to repair itself. I am so exhausted and I feel better when I am laying on the side of my bed in the fetal position. Goodnight to all~
