  1. I Love Raw and fast day 17

    Things are just going swimmingly here. It is amazing to me how fast my body responds when I give myself what I need.

    One, of many, amazing benefits of raw food that I have experienced has to do with women issues. I remember when I was in high school and in my early twenties, well before starting raw I guess, I used to have horrid menstral cramps that would send me to bed with a heating pad pressed against my tummy trying to relieve the pain. I have never been a fan of taking medicine ...

  2. fast day 16

    Hello,

    I have been researching colon hydrotherapy. I think I might like to have one done. I actually called a place that does them here and got prices and info. Now I just need to make a decision about it.
    Yesterday ended up being mostly water again. I did have a pint of carrot/apple, but all else was water. I love doing the water and I just am not into juicing right now, but I feel like I need to get some more nutrients in me. So I started my day today with orange/pineapple ...

    It is storming here. We are suppossed to get hit by a major snowstorm with 10-18 inches of snow. Oh joy. It is very cold and I am having a hard time staying warm. I am all bundled up, and I just want to crawl in bed under my covers right now. I just may do that.
    My stomach is upset right now and I am drinking water to try to settle it. I had just orange juice yesterday and today I had some carrot/apple. I will probably make some more carrot/apple later. I actually don't really feel like juices ...

  4. Day 14

    Today is day 14 and I am feeling great.

    On day 11 I really struggled for some reason. It was the hardest day that I have had so far. My first day wasn't hard but that day was for some reason. But I persevered and I am still here.

    Yesterday I did just water all day. I did not set out to do that, it just sort of happened. I really did not feel like any juice and I felt quite happy and content with water. By 5 pm I figured that I might as well stay with it and go the ...

  5. Juice Fast

    by on 01-22-2009 at 03:14 PM (The Blog of IamLoved)
    Well I began a juice fast on January 14th of this year. I really just felt like it was time to do it. So far I have had no problems at all, no cravings or feelings of deprivation. I am juicing carrots and apples and oranges and pineapples. Very yummy and surprisingly filling.

    Since beginning the fast I have been looking at a lot of fasting sites and blogs and have determined that I want to do a very extended fast. I am pushing for 92 days. I am not sure if I will be able to, ...
