It's around 1:35 pm here and scorching hot.I sit here with one of my furs (cats) in my leather recliner which is nice and cool. I've had two juices this morning I loved (Sunrise juice and pear/fennel juice) and realized yesterday that straws really help get down the ones I don't love so much.
I've not done much today. The heat and other factors are making me pretty tired. Being a woman sometimes just zaps you of strength regardless of what you've eaten. I will say though, my mind is still clear when at other times, I stumble along wandering how to complete the day's tasks b/c everything appears to be overwhelming. I can deal with the tiredness...it doesn't feel like the tired I've been experiencing the past few months...which was just overwhelming exhausted. This is normal, my body is tired.
I've taken inventory of my fridge to see what needs to be bought and what I have. My list still looks like the produce isle at your neighborhood grocery store! I only have a few things to buy (beets, fennel and watermelon) to make my juice. I'm thinking of freezing the watermelon, lemon, and blueberries though for a treat while at work b/c its going to be so hot the next few days. It feels good to prepare something healthy instead of just spending money on sugary drinks that don't do anything for me. I've been a week without a dr pepper or A&W rootbeer.
I've been struggling with some guilt over eating non vegetable/juice food after last night. Its very hard to go visit people and eat b/c its in front of you. My portion was tons smaller than it would have been prior to the last 7 days and I had my juice with me and had that along with it so I was at least getting the nutrients. I'm attempting to fast and I still stumble when other food is available when around other people although I have juice with me. I guess I don't want to field questions about why I'm not eating "regular" food and just juicing or let someone down who's made dinner. Definition of emotional eating 101 ;) Good to know about myself.
Oh I also eat when I'm on ambien, which I take for sleep. Apparently I had graham crackers and a can of tuna. Uh that combination just sounds gross right now!
Off to do some of my to do list things and juice through the headache and body aches.
Till later
