DAY NINE

I slept better last night than I have in awhile. I only woke up once and went right back to sleep. I have been going to bed at about 10pm and rising at about 5:30.

My husband and I went to Raleigh, NC (about 70 miles from us) to go to Whole Foods. I bought tons of fruit. I got tree-ripened nectarines, plums, clementines, Medjool dates, apples, and tons of bananas. I also got organic mangos, 2 for $3 so I bought 6 of them. Yum. We also had lunch there. I had a plate of fresh fruit.

I found my energy much better today. Not as sleepy nor did I feel as much fatigue as before.

2 oranges
1 grapefruit
1 banana

plate of assorted fruit (melon, strawberries, grapes, and pineapple
8 medjool dates (awesome)

carrot/turnip & radish greens juice

huge salad with 1/2 tbsp of olive oil/raw vinegar
20 almonds
2 nectarines

Weight 142

No cravings for cooked foods yet nor for grain products. That used to be my biggest craving. I used to eat tons of rice, cereals, and crackers.
My candida problems have seemed to clear up. I stopped taking one of my acidopholus pills. I used to take two a day. Now I am down to one. I am also phasing out my supplements. I want to finish what I have so as not to waste them. I don't feel a need for them anymore.
I still take powdered barley grass but I will stop that when I finish it.
I have not needed anything to clean out my bowels as I am eliminating fine and I am taking in about 50 grams of fiber a day.
Onward and upward!!
