I woke up well rested. Fortunately, I juiced a little extra the night before in order to have some ready for us as soon as we woke up. It tastes better freshly juiced but the ease was worth it to me. The entire process of juicing is very time consuming and I thoroughly clean my machine each and every time I use it. I can already tell you that I will be making extra juice every time due to the time it takes. This will be worth it to me so I won't get burned out.
I have to admit that my stomach was talking some during church. I was looking forward to going home for my next "meal". I only juiced two times during the day and made the extra each time as I mentioned. I didn't make any almond milk on Day 2 because I didn't have any more Vanilla Bean. I bought some from the health store the first time and I spent way too much money, in my opinion, on only two beans. I will do more searching for somewhere else who sells vanilla beans. I drank a little in the morning from the previous day but didn't have enough for any more. It sure helps fill you up so I will definitely be making more.
My allergies went crazy all throughout the day & even night, NOT FUN. Way more than normal. I am guessing the reason is because I am detoxing and my body doesn't know what is going on so it is lashing out. Praying it gets better and quickly. I felt pretty decent, other than the allergies, in the morning and part of the afternoon. But due to my allergies, I began to get headache. I thought about taking an Advil but decided to try to live through it. Bad choice. I was beginning to get a migraine. By the time I got back from the grocery store I was about to throw up due to the pain & I didn't want to do that. So I buckled and took an Advil and laid down for about an hour. Very thankful that when I got up, I felt decent. It took the edge off of the headache & that made it manageable, so I went and juiced for the second time - a new and tasty juice. Helped fill the sweet tooth that my husband and I both had.
About 9 pm my stomach was doing a little rumbling. I drank my detox tea and and it managed to tie me over and I went to bed a little early. Didn't go to sleep right away, but I wasn't really hungry. Sure I thought about food but my mind is in the right place to deal with it. I didn't have to go to the restroom as often as I did yesterday but still went a lot. During the night I only woke up once to go.
To recap, I felt ok most of the day, other than the headache which did eventually go away. I haven't been grouchy either and this really surprises me & what a nice surprise. I just knew that was going to be a struggle. Oh, I failed to mention that I weighed myself the morning of Day 1 and did so again the morning of Day 2, to find out I lost 3.2 lbs. Wow, that was not expected, but I was very thankful. I am hoping that tomorrow my allergies will tone down - a lot too!. We shall see.
