Day Twenty

Today marks the end of of twenty days for me. That means, I have ten more days to go before I'm off juice and on some solid good veggies, fruits, whole grains, and a wittle bitta diary. I'm really proud of myself. I can't believe I made it this far. And I just want to thank you guys for sticking with it with me. So, if for some crazy reason, this girl quits early. That's ok. Because I made it this far. And I'm proud of that. A lot of people don't even make it to three days without chowing on something solid. I haven't eaten anything solid for twenty days. So, yea me! ^___^

The next ten are going to be super hard though. Because I've just got  make to the end before I can sink my teeth into some salad. And I know a lot of people are worried I'll gorge myself. I won't; I promise. I've looked into this carefully; and while it make take some severe effort on my part (and Gary's) we'll be careful not to get sick eating too much, and the wrong stuff.

Speaking of Gary, he's been on a regiment of oil or oregano (five drops a day, twice a day), EVOO (two tablespoons a day (twice a day and some salt [a little because of the high potassium content of the diet]), three 8 oz glasses of green tea (or more [he had 45 oz today--woot!]) for two days. He's been feeling better, but we now know it's probably going to take at least a week to see some changes. And we're going to keep him on the OoO (oil of oregano) for at least a month. Yup. I want to make sure the whole infection is gone. We've been giving him the EVOO because we think he needs the fatty acids for his back--the pain. PLUS, EVOO is a natural anti-inflammatory. So, if you ever have chronic pain, take some. Much better than pharmaceutical drugs.

Anyway, that's it for tonight. Thanks for reading and wish me luck.
