Feast Breaking Day 1 and 2
I broke my juice feast yesterday. It's funny, but I felt kind of euphoric. I was pleased to be eating, but it was more than that. Maybe it was relief but I don't think it was that either. I just felt fabulous emotionally. On this juice feast, as well as losing over a stone in weight I have also become much more supple. I feel like I have the body of a 20 year old. (With the wrinkles of a 45 year old though!) No stiffness or aches and pains anywhere. I can move about freely, run about without being out of breath, and I don't normally exercise much. My body feels so good. Feeling a bit grotty after my mushroom was only a fleeting experience, especially after my coffee enema. I think enemas are so wonderful now. Such a useful thing to know how to do. If any of my cooked foodie friends are suffering from hangovers, from now on I'll be telling them to take the black coffee but up the other end!
After having my prunes yesterday morning I waited for something to happen. You're supposed to get a BM within a few hours. Well I didn't. I dutifully took some Cascara Segrada and still nothing, right up to bed time. I took another CS before bed. I was feeling quite bloated by this point. Full of prunes and juice!
This morning I took another CS and an hour or so later everything kind of caught up!! So today I've never been far from a toilet. There's lots of wind, gurgling and goodness knows what else going on in me. My tummy has blown up like a football! It does seem to be moving along now, but ealier this morning I was quite uncomfortable, in fact I still get that way when I drink some juice. Maybe my prunes don't agree with me. I've been stretching and rebounding in the hope that things would move along too. I'm sure everything will settle down in a few days. My poor bowels are wondering what's hit them at the moment.

Thanks Lisa,
I love reading your blog. You're doing so well, especially with all the studying and a house move! Very inspiring.
Well done getting into those little jeans! I've lost 16lb over the JF and everything is loose on me. Since going raw I've lost over 3 1/2 stone (53lb) now. I'm so looking forward to wearing nice clothes this summer.
Love
