Days Three, Four and the origins of my cleanse

though it seems like a lifetime ago, in december i had never heard of raw foods, consumed meat and dairy (though loved veggies and only ate meat when someone else prepared it), and smoked toooo much. since then, and thanks to gaya i've discovered the beauty and vibrance of raw food, green veg juices, and not smoking -- yay! yesterday was my third technical day of juice feasting, though i had a good preparatory fri sat sun, eating raw hummus fri and sat and frisee with olive oil and sea salt (i couldn't help myself -- sooo good!) sat and sun. i think it's helped me, but it's weird to be in a slightly different place than gaya in this feast. i'm loving it, despite the rough times!!

yesterday was a muuuuch better day than day 2. woke early, had msm water and made gaya's juices, saw her off to school, then skin brushed, shower with hot/cold/hot/cold/hot/cold!!, and put bentonite clay on some skin issues i'm having. i'm really looking forward to their disappearance soon!! oh and two enemas, though to my chagrin all i got was black water -- didn't eliminate at all day three actually. thanks to some senna tea last night and herbal laxes this morning i have and it feels sooooo much better. expect to be a poop monster today....

woke with low blood sugar day three (61 mg/dl) and today (67 mg/dl), mostly because i've had high readings in the evening (day two soir 241 day three soir 261) which are frustrating to me! took 5 cc novolog each night, which backfired i guess!! at 3h30 day three my bs was 231, so i took 4,5 cc novolog to counteract it. i guess these juices have a higher glycemic index than i am thinking? why is my blood sugar continually high? in addition to the novolog for caloric intake and bs adjustment, i take 30 cc lantus every morning.

day three, 3 quarts green juice: 1 stalk celery, 1 medium cucumber, collards, dinosaur kale, 2 lemons, baby romaine, parsley, 2 carrot, garlic, jerusalem artichoke

shared quart of salsa juice (mmmm) with gaya, though it raaaaaised my bs: cherry and grape tomatoes, cilantro, cabbage, celery, parsley, lemon, yellow onion, cayenne, sea salt, garlic powder and chili powder (don't know if the last two are verboten or not)

was in pretty good spirits day three, though got a little down around 4h30. had bee pollen, flax oil, green powder, enzymes, walked the boardwalk at 5 and then round 10 with gaya, very nice :)

day four, 3,5 quarts green juice: 2 heads celery, 2 lemons, 1 med carrot, kale, spinach, parsley, cilantro, burdock root, jerusalem artichoke, onion, aloe, cabbage, cayenne

6h45 fbs 67, 1 tbs raw honey, 30 cc lantus

9h00 quart 1

12h00 1/2 quart

2h00 1 quart

4hoo blood sugar 297 whhhhhy?! headache, feel sugar in blood but lethargic, 6 cc novolog
