Day 4 - Toxic

I can't say that I slept very well last night. I have been battling insomnia for over a year now. I was fortunate enough to rid myself of this awful torture for a few months but then it returned like a bad fashion trend that just wont go away. Seriously horrible. I was sort of hoping that even just a few days of juicing would correct this. Does not seem to be the case... yet. I do have faith that my sleep will return. Until then I may just rant about it. 

Other things I have noticed now that I have made it to 4 full days (insert applause) are: 

1. My breath and taste in my mouth seems to have changed and at this point not in the best way possible. Since I do read books and use "the googles" I have read that this is common and all part of the detoxing that takes place by consuming juices. 

2. My face does seem slimmer already and I have lost some weight. 

3. I am not reaching for water all the time which I was before. 

4. I am not craving solid food at all. 

5. I think I can make the full 45 days. I feel even more empowered and sort of on a roll. 

Tomorrow may turn out to be an interesting day or rather tempting. I have dinner plans for a bride to be that include dining out with "real" food, although I do wonder what is so real about processed junk? Either way I will be brining my own juice while I watch friends gorge on crunchy munchy foods. I think if I can get through that dinner I will be capable of getting through anything. I am not doubting my ability at this point. But I will admit I have made promises not to buy things and then bam a sale appears and I leave like I want to be featured on TLC hoarders. I tend to have an impulse shopping problem and I am truly hoping I do not impulsively give up tomorrow. I suppose the biggest difference is I am doing this to become HEALTHY. Without health you have nothing else. #fact. 

Wish me luck... or at least raise a glass of your own green juice/smoothie and think of me! 

Cheers!
