  1. weekend recap

    I had a fantastic weekend! The sun was shining and so was I :)

    Saturday was day 2 of my juicing and I had a wedding to go to. I was nervous about this because I didn't want to talk about it at the wedding (because I didn't want the bride to find out and worry). Anyway, I told my husband ahead of time that my plan was to just discretely push the food around on my plate and not eat anything. He was sweet and said I could put some of it on his plate if that would help :)

  2. weddings, birthdays, and fireworks - oh my!

    I have 3 friends getting married today. Whoa! I'm only going to one of the weddings though because luckily the other two are out of town (I say luckily because if they were all in town I would be scrambling all over the place). The wedding is from 11 a.m. - 4 p.m. and it's going to be HOT today. The ceremony is outside, but the reception is inside. Kind of a shame to go inside on such a beautiful day, but oh well.

    After that my husband & I are going up to his dad's house. ...

  4. no more hormones!

    I decided to get off birth control pills. I've been on them for ages, and even though the doctors say it's safe to take them long term...frankly I just don't believe them. I don't want those hormones in my body! However, I also really don't want to get pregnant and I don't trust the effectiveness of condoms or diaphragms. So I decided to get an IUD. There are two types, one that is hormonal and one that is copper - so I got the copper one. I got it last Tuesday, so I've had it for over a week ...

  5. day 3 of 4 on water fast

    feeling good this morning after sleeping really well last night. I went to bed early (at 9:30) and my husband was laughing because it was still light outside. I didn't care though - I really wanted the extra rest.

    This morning I went to hot yoga. I debated on whether I should go to yoga while I'm fasting or not. I decided to still go, and I figured I could always rest as much as I needed to. However, I really felt great the whole time! My body is starting to get cleaner and lighter ...
