54, pseudo

i've incorporated fiber into my juices again today, and tomorrow i'm venturing into eating green things! i bought some bibb lettuce at whole foods today, as well as ingredients for nut/seed mylks for sunday. mmmmm emrose is excited! i schemed my way into a refill of insulin from student health today, even though my doctor wasn't there to see me/prescribe me. now i don't have to pay the $60 fee. yesss! i also talked with lauren today, a friend gaya and i will be visiting in nyc. not only has she welcomed us chez elle, she and bf josh are most probably going to see radiohead the same night as g and i are! no, wait, it gets better! she brings up my juicing and says she really wants to get into making juices, she wants to buy a juicer and every thing! i am so excited to make juices for her, to talk her ear off about it, and i know gaya will be too! yayayay. and there is also an organic co-op and parking spaces right by her house. ooooh yeah! can't wait to have this wonderful trip with gaya, and for my friends to meet!

4qt finale (no worries, i'm still having at least 1qt a day from here on out. i don't think i could live optimally without!): bok choy, kale, celery, cuc, green pep (in 2qt), cilantro, lemon

DAY 53


juicy juicy juicy! i am unsure as to whether to keep juicing or not. it still feels good to drink juice, but i don't really feel at my optimal health on only juice. so i was thinking about starting on solid foods, especially when gaya told me that she was considering it. should i support her through day 60 but continuing to juice, or does she have enough support already? in the mean time, i'm adding some vegetable fiber to my juices as of today. weirdness in my tum, but not entirely unpleasant!

otherwise, i've been feeling physically empowered by helping my friends move, and have done some yoga that doesn't hurt (boil issues again, less than the best). most importantly, i am diving into Susan Reintjes' Third Eye Open that gaya lent me. what a wonderful book! and my friend knows her!!! i'm looking to see if she has any public lectures in the area since she lives in my hood. i'm excited to see gaya and to go to nyc with her! my emotions are dominated by sadness, though i think i need to have an anger/frustration session. releasing my anger will help heal the boils, i'm procrastinating because of hesitancy as to what will come out.... i'm considering deeply my life, the choices i am making, what brings me the most joy and more sadness, trying to investigate my sadness, my emotions surrounding people. what, ultimately, shall i do? what is best and most joyful for me? how can i be the best emilyrose i can be to the best friends and companions i choose?

3qt greeeeen with fiber: cuc, celery, kale, spin, lemon. i want cilantro!

Juice Feasting Day 41

I had a good day at home today with Gaya. Drank carrot juice, yummy like candy. Took too much insulin afterward and drank OJ. 

Day 40

Today i discovered yoga! Took 2 classes. Looking forward to integrating it into my life. Nothing really significant is happening with my diabetes. Not happening like I thought it would be. Though yes, bumps are smaller, not leaking in armpit, face acne clearing some around hair line, skin brighter. Happy to be in VaBeach!

Juice Feasting Day 39.
