Today is my final day of the detox, for breakfast I had an organic apple and a glass of organic tomato juice.  For lunch I added in organic lentils.  I had the lentils over brown and wild rice over spinach, spring mix and some brocolli.  If you told me 2 weeks ago that I would love that, I would have thought you were crazy…it has to have some meat or chicken to be really good.  But it was delicious. 

I also went to an organic farm today and bought some heirloom tomatoes, I am going to cut those up with some organic basil for dinner tonight over rice.  YUM!  I also bought organic Medjool Dates, it’s like eating candy they are so sweet and good.  If you have never had one, just buy one at your local grocery store and try it, you can thank me later. 

I still haven’t had an hunger pangs, mostly I get lightheaded, that’s how I know it is time to eat.  I am very excited that I completed my goal with this detox.  I will pay very close attention to what foods I add back into my diet and how they make me feel.   A friend just compared it to being like a baby, adding each new food and seeing what/how it works for you.  I like that comparison very much and look forward to determining what makes me feel the best. 

Have a wonderful evening and a healthy tomorrow!

Today is my 4th day of organic juice only and still no hunger.  I have found the psychological side of not eating intriguing, how I have wanted to cook and eat due to emotions rising, but not from hunger.  Not giving myself the option I must just accept the feelings and be with them. 

I would have thought the bigger challenge would be dealing with the physical hunger, not the emotional issues that are coming up due to not eating.  Along with my body clearing all the toxins, so is my brain and mind, I look forward to the next few days to see what comes up.

I have completed my 3rd day of organic juices only.  I had a twinge of hunger earlier in the day, around 11:30 am, while out doing errands.  It lasted a few minutes and then it was gone.  I have also noticed a difference in my taste buds with the juices I am drinking.

Yesterday I had an emotional day, the cleansing can bring up many issues.  As I worked through the issues I was fine, but noticed an unbelievable urge to go out for dinner.  Just to sit and relax with food (probably lots of food).  I didn’t of course but again very interesting to want that even though I was not hungry. 

Also had a Reiki treatment this evening, thank you Sarah, www.sarahsoulutions.com, it was very healing and I feel wonderful tonight.  

If you choose to do a detox please be aware of the emotions that may come up from it and be prepared to accept them and work through what you may learn.  I am ready for a peaceful and restful night of sleep and wish you the same.

A Birthday party to attend, cake, ice cream, chips,dip,  temptations can be everywhere.  Change your perspective about temptations (birthday parties).  Be excited and thankful that you get to spend the day with family, and friends and celebrate. 

When you focus on the food, that is what you will see and be attracted to.  Focus on the event, people, place and enjoy the social aspect of the party.  All of a sudden it is no longer a temptation, it is a fun, fulfilling event.  

Today I am celebrating my Niece’s Birthday and the joy of having her in my life.  Which is secondary compared to the love and joy she has brought to my Brother and Sister-In-Law.  HAPPY 3rd BIRTHDAY JENNY!!!!  

Cake and ice cream, who cares?  Not me.  Remember the Henry Ford quote “Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goal.”
