I felt a little weak this morning. But after I made the juice and drank it I felt good and did for the rest of the day. This juicing is a bit of a pain but worth it. I have to drag all the veggies out and clean them off and cut them to the size that will fit through the juicer. I keep juicing till I get about 10 ounces. I can't make more ahead because it loses it's enzymes after a while. You have to make it fresh each time. Then it's cleaning up and throwing away all that nice pulp that I would have used for a soup. Such a waste. I drink that every three to four hours. I am also drinking the Phsyllium Husk powder with water so I have some roughage. But I drink that an hour before I drink more juice so it won't interfere with the digestion of the enzymes and nutrients. I am also concerned for my Gall Bladder and the stone. If I don't have any oils at all I might get another attack. So I am putting a little Flax seed oil in the Physillum water and drinking that. I never knew a body needed at least 10 % fat with each meal to make the Gall Bladder work right. That's why when people go on no-fat diets they get worse. The fat lets the bile duct open up to drip into the intestines to help digest the food. People who have their Gall Bladdrs out end up with a constant 24 hour drip of bile into their intestines, which can cause problems down the road if they don't eat right I guess. I'm not sure about the particulars on that subject. Lots of people have had their Gall Bladders out and seem fine. But I want mine to stay put! Ha!
I stopped using the Fiber stuff that I bought at Walmart because that had Sucrose in it. Cancer cells love sugar. I order plain Phsyllium Husk Powder online and now use that. I am still waiting for my PH drops to come to alkalize my water. My body has always been too acidic so the drops will help.
When I went on my alkalizing diet five years ago I never felt so good. All my red spots on my ankle went away and little growths that were on my leg went away. I have a growth on my right lower leg right now and I am watching that as I go. If it starts to shrink and go away I will know I'm on the right path. That is my "Canary in the coal mine" Ha! Ha!
Well, it's almost time to go juice some more veggies. I am juicing carrots, broccoli, kale, Turnip, Cauliflower, red pepper, red cabbage, beets with the green leaves, and I throw in a half tomato. These are all organic veggies.
I do miss chewing on something though. That is the hardest part right now. But it's one day at a time. They will add up fast.
Take care everyone.

Another lovely photo Ginny, I'm sure you get prettier in every one ;)
Your juice drinks actually sound rather delicious. I have an organic ready made-up one (lazy I know!) which I am quite hooked on, it is quite expensive so I restrict myself to one glass a day but I could easily drink the whole carton in one go, mind you I would probably be 'going' all day if I did!! I really should think about making my own up.
