• So yesterday was my break from the juice fast. It went great. As was recomended, I started off slow ... have a smoothie from "Juice it Up" in the morning, for lunch had a bowl of rice and some Miso soup at a shabu-shabu bar, and for dinner, miso, rice and a small salad with tofu. To be honest, I was surprised at how full I felt. I slept great last night, and I'm up at 6:00am today. So much for sleeping in.

  
  

  Today is the start of round 2, the detox diet. It's all greens and select oils for the next 4 days, after that, it's one grain a day plus the greens for the last 4. In between this, I have another colonic on Tuesday, and the day after the detox ends I have my last colonic. I'm really glad I did the juice fast BEFORE the detox, as I think it will lessen the impact of the detox.

  
  

  Also on Monday, I'm going to do a Liver/Kidney flush ... I've been told that's really benifical for the detox part of this, as it gets rid of toxins and small stones that clog the bile ducts. Once again, if I'm going to do this, I may as well go all the way.

  
  

  So what have I noticed as far as benifits from this? A general sense of well being, more clear headed, my razor wit hs seemed to gotten sharper, my wake up time in the morning has gone from an hour to 15 minutes and I sleep really soundly. Oh yeah .... I also lost 18 pounds.

  
  

  I'll let you know how things go today ... gotta get creative with the steamed veggies.
