Day 8

I'm blogging at night now. There's just too much to do in the morning. Preparing juice takes a solid hour now. Today - 2 heads of red leaf lettuce, 5 lbs carrots, one head celery, 6 apples, 1/2 cuke, parsley, ginger and that was about it. Yielded 4 quarts of juice. 3 mostly green and a carrot apple ginger kicker for the evening. I really didn't feel hungry all day.

I did get caught at work with the green juice - my bad. Now everyone really thinks I'm off my rocker. It really isn't normal for people to only drink juice for sustenance. But I am - and right now I feel pretty good.

I have a morning routine down - did figure out that there really needs to be a specific order to it. The enema should come after the morning constitution probably. No one really wants details. No mess - just some real quick moves on my part. I keep thinking of that scene in "The Right Stuff" (sorry no hot link to the right IMDB page) where Scott Glenn gets his in the hospital. Yikes!

One thing that is taking a while to get use to is how the inside of my mouth feels. The teeth do feel a bit fuzzy at times - I brush them a lot to rid them of the feeling. And there is a pseudo hint of a metallic taste. Not really noticeable until I think about it - not disgusting or even distasteful - just this presence of a minor/mild/ almost non- existent taste. I am hoping it passes.

I am nervous about this weekend - 3 full days away from my juicer. I'm hoping I will be able to find a good place to "eat" at during y time down south. I am not sure if I'll be able to blog much either - but will make the best attempt I can.
