Day Five - something's brewing

Morning all,

I think the honeymoon is over.  Nothing dramatic, though.

After I posted yesterday I just started to feel a bit..blecch.  Slightly nauseous, tired, generally low.  I wondered if I shouldn't have taken all my supplements at the same time and on an empty stomach as I had, but the feeling persisted pretty much all of the day.

I tried to do my work, but found it hard to focus.  I felt COLD, and had to wear socks and extra layers.

Also I have a lovely crop of breakouts brewing on my face.

All this is to be expected, so I'm not worried at all.  Just in general I felt less enthused about everything.

Weight this morning is 65.2kg (143.7lb) - a slight gain, which is surprising, but in view of me feeling generally bad, it all fits I suppose.

I drank just over 4 quarts of green juice yesterday;  didn't bother with a sweeter, fruitier one in the afternoon as I normally do, but just made the usual mix.  Later in the day I threw in some fresh figs which added a lovely, delicate flavour and an amazing, creamy texture.

I don't think I drank enough water or herbal teas as I normally would, probably because I was feeling bad and didn't think of it.

I also feel a bit constipated today, and I know all the juice feasting sites talk about the importance of enemas in the first few days - but I just can't bring myself to even THINK about it - perhaps if things are still looking bad in a day or two.  Meantime I'll just hope for Nature to take its course.

So today is a cloudy and windy day here in SF, and my husband and I will probably go downtown to see a movie.  There's a terrific little farmers' market in the movie complex, which in addition to tons of great vegan food, has Juicey Lucy's juice bar, so I'll probably treat myself to a juice made by someone else.   I'll be gentle with myself, take a walk, remember my water and hope that whatever needs to be processed will be processed, and that  things will look brighter tomorrow.
