  1. Big Day requires Big Boots.

    So I am donning my imaginary combat boots and storming the SpEd office today. They have no idea of the bomb I am about to drop. They will hate me after today-and that's just the way I want it. lol! This is going to be SO intense. I am so thankful for this juice feast because had I not been on it I would have stopped off at the country store for a white chocolate scone and vanilla chai to "calm my nerves" before the meeting and picked up a chocolate bar for eating in the car after the ...

  2. Day XYZ

    Here's the deal. I'm not counting. I'm just livin' high on juice for now. I don't want a countdown, etc. I'm just gonna focus on the NOW of my life. If I get wrapped up in #s then it's like I am waiting for it to be over, ya know? So, for now, I circled my starting date on the calendar, but that's it. And for the first time in my life I'm not going to get on the scale everyday. I will weigh myself 1x a week, just to get a ballpark of what my body is doing. I've had very little hunger-everything ...

  3. Look Ma! No hands!

    Day 3 of my juice feast. Feeling a lot better than a few days ago when I was suckin' down beers and eating veggie subs and chips. Lost 7lbs of water weight. It's hard to keep up with all this juice, but I'm doing my best. I feel SO much better with the bloating/water weight subsiding. In general I have had enough energy. My husband is being super supportive and thinks the idea is really cool. I won't lie. it's a PITA to make a gallon of juice. Basically I make 1/2 gallon of greens, carrots, grapes, ...

  4. when will I learn to get off this rollercoaster?

    Yup. I'm here. Been fighting with any and everyone to get my boy some help. Gave into SAD. Yes, I can really be an idiot sometimes. I just get SO exhausted from all this fighting crap that I sometimes climb into bed at 6pm. Then I wasn't able to sleep, so I started drinking a glass of red wine every night to chill. That turned into drinking yummy beers, which led to chips...and thus the vicious cycle began yet again. So today I weighed 152. Holy crow, man. I'm up almost 30 lbs since my juice fast ...

  5. Son got into therapeutic school!

    He goes 5 days a week for about 3 weeks. I have faith that this will help. Unfortunately, I ate tofu and millet for supper and popcorn this after noon. I feel like puking. I think it was a combined anxiety due to ds going to this new school (lots of finagling to move everyone around so I can take him each day (it's an hours drive to the city.) and ds#2 came home from school early with Lyme disease symptoms (again). He is having trouble walking and spent the day in bed. I'm trying to be gentle with ...
