Today is Thanksgiving in America, and I give thanks that we do not celebrate it here in Australia, it is too close to Christmas, but a lot of people like to post what they are thankful for, I just read Joe Cross's Instagram post, on what he is thankful for, I wont rewrite his post here but if you want to follow Joe, you will find him "joethejuicer", while you are looking up Joe, feel free to follow me on Instagram too, "sugarfreejuicingcrusader" I am however new to instagram so don't expect too much. I am thankful that I found out about Joe Cross's movie, which is eight years old now but better late than never, when I first watched it, I was so inspired I wanted to start a juice fast straight away, I think is was a Friday that I watched "Fat, Sick and nearly Dead" so I started the following Monday, why is it when we are going to start a diet or a new exercise regime we start on Monday, shouldn't it be Sunday? isn't Sunday technically the start of a new week? well I know why we didn't start Sunday, we went out to lunch with the relatives in Port, we went and had our last solid meal for what we thought would be 10 days, (we kept going for 28) it was at Hogs Breath, to be honest it wasn't that great. Now that I have at least 2 full fasts chalked up, the first the 28 day-er and then the recent 10 day-er, I have to say that food doesn't really do it for me anymore, I don't crave a big juicy steak, I don't even crave hot chips anymore, we actually went to lunch last week (with the same relatives) and I ordered my meal without the chips, cause we all know how they love to pile on the chips, so I have to say I am thankful I don't have those cravings anymore. I do however crave my vegetable juice, and always like to have 2 or 3 made up in the fridge, in case I get hungry, I would love to have one of those industrial juices they have at Boost Juice, (I would be very thankful) now that I have my daughter drinking a specially prepared to her liking juice as well, the minimum amount of juices I make at any one time is 6 jars. see the images below for the before and after a juicing session. I am thankful that I have my health back and I am medication free, I am really thankful that I lost a fair deal of weight, I am thankful that I feel so good now compared to how I felt for the last 20 years that was the norm! and most of all I am thankful for my wonderful family and friends that always support me in every way, even by reading my blog :-)
