Juice Day 4.

Man this is hard. I've had no motivation to eat all that the reboot tells me to eat. I haven't had one soup, I've had a couple of salads, but mainly I stick to juice. It's so much easier. However, last night I had to leave in a hurry for Time Out For Women and ended up having a PB&J sandwich. How can a person love eating salad, but hate preparing them? I need to change. This juice thing is just the part of the metamorphosis for this year. And, it seems to me the clear issue here is that I don't take the time to take care of myself.

I'm not very high maintenance: I don't always care to have the latest fashions, I don't care about make up, I don't wash my face and put night cream on, I don't know how to do my hair besides curling it or putting it up in a pony tail. If anything takes more than 5 minutes to do, I don't care for it. It seems to me I don't care much about  anything.  I think I'm perceiving that things just need to change so that I can feel and be a better person.

I think my mom's health issue is still digesting in my brain. I have the determination to do things, but I do too much and end up burning out. It's time to start prioritizing, letting go of getting everything done all the time, relax a bit more and de-stress, and enjoy learning how to take care of myself.  SO DANG HARD.....

So today is day 4. I actually was craving a salad today so I made myself one, but not from the list just from what was in the fridge that would take less than 5 minutes to make. Bella helped me eat it. I think being in Utah next week, I'll enlist my mom to make the salads while I make the juices. That will help me to stay more focused on all that I have to eat....

On a happy note it looks like I've lost 2 lbs. I'm also noticing that I'm not suffering as badly from spring allergies, my immune system must be getting stronger. Yay for cleaning out my cells of inflammation and  toxicity!!
