Yesterday (Saturday) was VERY low energy, some dizziness and weakness but today is much better.
I went to the gym, did 2 miles, and then got in the sauna. As I was leaving, I just felt right about the world.
Something is changing in my life. And I want to nurture this feeling, this change. I feel aware. I had a thought pop in my head today that said to me "You are vibrating with energy". I always felt like some health-crazed people were just a little too happy about eating their salad. (I've always been a fan of salad but usually with lots of dressing and not for very many meals per week). I looked at how they ate and could only see misery. Did I want to gnaw on a beet? NO WAY! Not for me! I didn't want to be restricted from the pleasures of this world! But how many times did I mindlessly gulp things down, barely tasting them, and then feel like crap afterwards?
I'm not that far into this juice fast, but I feel like I can't wait to eat a kale chip or a green bean. I am excited to make soups from scratch. I never thought I would be able to stomach, much less ENJOY a class of freshly squeezed veggie/fruit juice.
It might also be this body that is making me feel good. I do feel vibrant! (Not 100% of the time, but that's part of the juicing FAST). I feel lighter. Sometimes I even feel euphoric. I do battle with temptations, but mostly when I see something on tv and in front of me. But even with those moments of temptation, I'm not nearly as miserable as I thought I would be!
