Green Smoothie Paradise

Day 3 of my Green Smoothie Feast! I feel gratitude, so much gratitude. As my bath was filling up tonight and I looked around my purple bathroom, I felt like I was at a spa and I was grateful. Today I was sweaty all day, it seemed like some sort of detox. Tonight I realized that I had the heat set to 72 and I was still cold ( mind you the temp outside was 68 ). I took a hot bath and I'm feeling more balanced with my temperature.

I have a few cravings, but they only seem to come when I'm hungry. I've learned that I get hungry about every 3 hours with the green smoothies.

I have to say that this green smoothie feast is so much easier for me than the juice feast. It's less expensive, I'm hardly ever hungry, I have more energy ( slower detox I suppose , It takes much less time and my body is loving it!

I truly believe in juice feasting and hope to do a longer one in the future, but for now this is what my body and soul is craving.

I went out to lunch with my boss today and being true to my word I only ate that which I would normally put in a green smoothie. I had a salad with lemon and a fruit cup. There were only positive comments on my lunch choices and no fear talk about a " liquid diet ", it went very well.

I really really really really want to do this green smoothie feast for 60 days. I even joined weight watchers just for the motivational weigh in. I listened as I was told of all of the wonderful processed food I could buy ( cakes, candies, high sodium pretzels, dairy and meat laiden tv dinners and powdered smoothie mixes )and I thought to myself, " just green smoothies for me thank you, but I so appreciate the support and motivation ". Do you think any other raw foodist has ever joined weight watchers? I may be the only one. No, honestly, I think it's a wonderful program for people to create a better relationship with food ( we all have to start somewhere ) and I honor them for that.

Well, it's about time to make my green smoothies for tomorrow, until next time......

Many Blessings,
