day 5

i've run out of homemade number pics already. let's hope that YummyHubby (responsible for your fruity numbers so far) can come up with some more stuff soon! in the meantime please enjoy this photo i took yesterday, on day 4. look at those eyes, they're clearer already. can't wait to see what they'll be like on day 92 :D

today i did the right thing and made all my juices up front at the start of the day. i've been torn this week, as i really believe juice should be made fresh and drunk within minutes, but i'm just not drinking enough. i'm leaving too much space between each batch and it ends up with me only managing 2 quarts (that's 2 litres or 3.3 imperial pints) so i gritted my teeth and spent an hour and a half this morning making over 3 quarts - so i've repeatedly patted myself on the head for being a good girl. two quarts green and one of pure orange. yum! all that orange juice can't be good for my teeth though :(

i'm still cold. though not as bad as yesterday. i had to get up in the night and get the duvet from the spare bedroom and put that over our usual duvet + blanket. it's very much an internal cold. even when my skin is warm from my fabulously comforting fox and pig (these are lavender-wheat warmers that you put in the microwave to heat. the pig is pink and pig shaped and very cute. the fox, well, the fox is just a long rectangle but became known as the fox thanks to my sister. long story, never mind.) i still have this chilly feeling. today i resolved to have more oils. i'm going to have a tablespoon each of hemp oil and coconut oil for the next few days, rather than just one or the other. it should also prevent my skin drying out.

consumption today:

msm-lemon water

celery-romaine-cucumber-carrot-pear juice

romaine-apple-pear-ginger juice

orange juice

zeolite, nature's living superfood

assorted herbal teas (including more of yesterday's hot and spicy "thai soup" blend, with hemp and coconut in it)

detox:

cold until mid-afternoon until a headache replaced it

spot on chin is just sitting there, one of my neck has gone

skin around chin is looking a little bit dry and red (got an avocado in the fridge that could be put to good use there. this calls for a lavender-epsom salt bath and avocado facepack later. oh yeah.)

i'm tired. had a busy day. need to save some energy for whipping up that facepack ;) wishing you all a fabulous tomorrow.
