Baggy clothes.

Rate this Entry
My clothes are getting baggy. My co-workers are saying how much weight did you loose. Only 3 lbs. Lost 5 gained back 2. I can see a difference in my face and skin.

Im in the dumps. I restarted taking my medication (don't want to be on any). Hopefully I ll start feeling better soon. Im anxious to resume juice fasting. Ive never felt so good or in control of things in my life.

Last night I made a tomato juice with green pepper, ginger, onion. Sooo good. I made grape juice and pear juice and drank them all. I ate a ton of grapes. Then raw granola after that. It tasted kinda funny. I had it in my cabinent for 1 month.

Today I plan on drinking tons of water. I pick up my co-op box tonight it has swiss chard I just love juice with swiss chard. Its so smooth and not very green tasting. YUMMY. My daughter is creating her own favorite juices now. i am so proud of her for making healthy choices. She used to tell me I don't want your healthy stuff I want junk. Now juicing is our nightly routine. Even though im not fasting Im still flooding my body with lots of yummy juices.

    Successes are so great. I've found, even through my illnesses, that if I reflect on the improvements, it keeps me going. I was taking 7 meds on a daily basis for various things that go along with fibromyalsia. After 2 months of being raw I've been able to decrease my antidepressant by half, completely go off my sleep meds and one other drug.

    I was diagnosed with severe depression several years ago. When I thought I was completely well, I took myself off of the antidepressant and 6 months later ended up in a daytime mental facility. I'm careful now about going off meds, needless to say.

    All that said, take one day at a time. Rejoice in the small victories and you'll start to experience bigger ones. :-)

    How that helps.
