what are you feasters/fasters doing for Valentine's day?

[SekhemNefer]

Are you breaking it in order to have a nice meal, then with what? Or will you just create a special Vday smoothie/juice?

Me personally, since the only "honey" in my life are my two dogs - I will continue and do what I've been doing. I think Valentine's Day is goofy. But that's just me...

You all talk amongst yourselves...:p

[SekhemNefer]

Oh, I am single, but if I celebrate in loving myself. To me it is Vain Day. :) I want to be in on the fun too.

IF i was still fasting... i'd just fast through it. perhaps treat myself (if i felt so inclined) to do a special juice for myself...

i have 2 dogs, too! :eek:

i'm keeping a low profile for v-day. i'm a little cautious that people ask me out just to have a date and wanting to like someone for v-day versus than really liking me. so they can ask me out afterwards. :p

Well, actually I will be in the middle of a 21 day water, juice green smoothie fast and my husband and I are going to a couple thing friday night and saturday am at church which they will be serving dessert friday night ( which I would of not ate anyways) and cont. breakfast in the am. Then I am going to friends house having mexican night saturday night. So I am not going to partake in any of the food at all. I already told my friend who is hosting the get together on Saturday that I am fasting. The thing about fasting is there will never be a perfect time to do a fast and you have to go with the flow. This is my first one and I feel great, but this weekend will be hard, but I will keep focused on my goal and have a good time.

I'm having a potluck at my house and figure I'll just go ahead and continue my smoozie feasting.

Revvell, maybe you get asked this question alot, but what's a smoozie?

I'll be disappointed if it's the same as a smoothie, cuz it sounds like more fun and I wanna know what the secret ingredients are! (Not that smoothies aren't fun...my body's loving them!)

Oh, and I agree with VFL that Valentine's day is goofy. I'm a bit suspicious of anyone who suddenly becomes friendlier just cuz it's close to Feb 14 (or Dec 25...same thing, more or less). But that's also just me.

It is sad the guy I was dating told me he didn't want to date me anymore last Saturday!!! JERK! Right before Valentine's too.
Made me mad & sad.. Oh, well.
I will still eat raw & enjoy my food. I'm going to try to find some raw cacao. :)

When we were doing my book, Himself kept calling green smoothies, "smoozies" so, rather than keep spelling out green smoothies all the time and to differentiate them from fruit smoothies, I just say "smoozie".

Not all that fun, eh? :D ;)

My hubby and I are actually going on a date. A non food date. And I am not breaking my fast. Today is day 30. Yippee!

I hope the time you save from not having to spell out green smoothies doesn't get all used up when you answer questions from people like me about what a smoozie is, lol!

Yeah, it would be more fun if it had chocolate in it. :D :p

[SekhemNefer]

Smoozie = floosie + smoothie? A smoothie floosie? :p

Oh, so sorry to hear that. I remember going through Valentine's Day like that too.

I just read an article that said that breaking up before Valentines Day is so common that it's called "Break-up Season" and that 56% of break-ups happen in the three months between Thanksgiving and Valentines Day.

[SekhemNefer]

Indeed. For some reason people feel guilty breaking up around Thanksgiving or Christmas but want to break-up before Valentine's.

Ive been water fasting all week long so ive allowed myself some nice mango juice (diluted) and an nice glass of tomato juice, also diluted.
My body has had enough juice now, so we're back on water!
woo-hoo

I was feeling a bit weak before the juice, so i got a much needed energy boost.
Got a really nice book to read tonight, called Loving yoursef by Daphne rose Kingma,. heard good reviews about it and also doing a facial, taking a cocnut oil bath and doing my hair!

Im enjoying myself today :)

[Vaclare79]

Really I didn't know that. I need to find me a health food store to get my raw cacao from so I can make my raw cacao fudge..
