JUICE FEASTING Day1-5

Buenos dias! Today is January 2nd, when I planned on beginning my feast, but I am actually on Day 6! On Friday Dec 28th, I planned on a green smoothie for breakfast, but the banana was gone, so I opted for green juice. My cucumbers told me I better make alot of juice if they were going to make it, so the feast began!

December 28, 2007- DAY 1

32 oz lemon, cayenne water with 1 Tbsp Sulphurzyme (I hadn't bought plain MSM yet, so I used this Young Living product with MSM, FOS, Ningxia wolfberry powder and stevia)
3 quarts kale, celery, cucumber, cilantro, broccoli sprouts, carrot, pear
1 tsp bee pollen, 1 Tbsp Green Magma, 1 tsp coconut oil, 1/4 tsp kelp, 1 Tbsp hemp oil
Good Earth tea, 2 Lifegive digestive enzymes, enema

I felt very excited about beginning and the idea that i will have been juicing for a few days to welcome in the new year. Since I have not been drinking alcohol at all and have been eating mostly raw, I figured I was going to have to pack my own food for going to the cabin with my friends anyway, so why not a ton of produce and a juicer?! It was great to have juice in the fridge at work in between giving massages :)

December 29, 2007 DAY 2

11" of snow in the past 24 hours, so Michael (my husband) and I woke up early to skin and ski Big Mountain -life is good! I had made 4 qts of juice yesterday, but only drank 3, so I was happy to have one ready so we could head straight for the hill. I got a yummy fresh fruit juice from the Bean Hive Cafe on the way back...

24 oz lemon, cayenne water w/ 1 Tbsp Sulphurzyme
3.5 qt kale, celery, cuke, cilantro, carrot, broccoli sprouts, apple
16 oz orange,grapefruit, garlic, ginger
1 Tbsp hemp oil, 1 Tbsp bee pollen, 1 Tbsp coconut oil, 1 Tbsp Green Magma, 1/4 tsp kelp
1 cascara sagrada, enema

Pack up and head out for St Mary! Gnarly blizzard and we stop to push a man's car out of the snow near the Firebrand Bar. My friends are talking about traveling and I'm wondering why I decided to begin this feast before going to the cabin...

December 30, 2007 DAY 3

32 oz lemon, cayenne water w/ 1 Tbsp Sulphurzyme
2 qt kale, chard, broccoli sprouts, celery, cuke, sweet orange peppers, onion, garlic
1 qt chard, celery, cuke, apple, ginger
1 qt chard, celery, cuke, orange, ginger
32 oz lemon, cayenne water
1 Tbsp coconut oil, 1 Tbsp bee pollen, 1 Tbsp Green Magma, 1 tsp kelp
Good Earth tea, enema

So great to be out here! The guys all got up before sunrise to head out for ice fishing and I savored my delicious sleep! It is the 1st day I have gotten to prepare my juices at a leisurely pace. Then, out to the lake for ice skating-it was so windy, that when facing one direction, the wind took us without skating at all-too fast actually! We had to really pump it on the way back into the wind and it was nice to get warm and be outside. Back at the cabin, I am starting to mentally struggle with why I chose to juice feast right now, amidst all my friends, trying to fit an enema into the day when 13 people are sharing 2 bathrooms (one which has a curtain for a door!). But I stick with it, having fun playing dice and Cranium together by the fire. We feel lucky!

December 31, 2007 DAY 4

32 oz lemon, cayenne water w/ 1 Tbsp Sulphurzyme
2.5 qt chard, celery, cuke, sprout mix (radish, clover, fenugreek & alfalfa), carrot, ginger
1 qt chard, celery, cuke, apple, carrot, ginger
1 Tbsp hemp oil, 1 Tbsp coconut oil, 1 Tbsp bee pollen, 1 Tbsp Green Magma
1/4 tsp kelp, 1 cascara sagrada, 1 Lifegive systemic enzyme, Good Earth tea, enema

Everything was easier today! I released the mental struggle I was putting myself through and realized I was going to make it and love it along the way! Ice skating was awesome without the wind at mock 10 and the sun greeted us, shimmering all the snow crystals on the lake-wow! Sleep has been so deep and yummy. Natalie and I walked down the frozen river until she feel through to the water while the guys created a new sport...river sledding! Later, it is still 5 hours until midnight, so I retreat for a nap, feeling a bit separate from my partying friends, but arise when 2 more arrive and have a blast playing the name game and bringing in the new year with pieces of paper stuck to our foreheads. Two of the homies streak to the creek, their boots carrying them through the snow and I fall asleep giggling in 2008! Happy New Year!

January 1, 2008 DAY 5

32 oz lemon, cayenne water w/ 1 Tbsp Sulphurzyme
2 qt celery, kale, chard, cuke,mixed greens, carrot, ginger
16 oz grapefruit
1 qt celery, cuke, chard, carrot, orange, ginger
2 Tbsp Green Magma, 1 Tbsp bee pollen, 1 Tbsp coconut oil, 1 Tbsp hemp oil, skin brush
1/4 tsp kelp, 1 cascara sagrada, 1 systemic enzyme, 32 oz Good Earth tea, enema
16 oz rooibos, mint, yarrow tea

I only have enough produce to make 2 quarts of juice at the cabin and although we are leaving today, it makes me a bit nervous. I enjoy a breathtaking snow walk to St Mary Lake while the guys get in their last ice fishing journey. The 3 hour drive home is sunny and absolutely gorgeous! I am grateful to begin the new year feeling like a champ (mind, eyes and spirit feeling even clearer with each new day)! The grapefruit juice I make as soon as we get home tastes divine. I feel a little hungry this evening, but nothing too strong.

Blessings, Kelly:)
