Day 4 of Reboot (Express)

Day 4 was uneventful, but awesome! I started with Star Anise herbal tea with lemon. Very nice.... Then I juiced endive, celery, fennel stems, carrots, apple, lemon, and ginger root. What a great combination, but I think it was too sweet because the carrots are high in sugars. I only drank one quart of juice today, and the elimination stopped!! So my experiment shows I need to drink at least two quarts of juice each day.

I went to dinner with friends tonight and had a small dinner house salad with a teaspoon of balsamic vinegar on it. Also had a cup of tomato florentine soup... was probably Campbell's tomato soup with some spinach chopped into it. Very BLAH and very BAD... I should have stopped after the first spoonful. Now, I want to find a Reboot type tomato florentine soup recipe for after the reboot.

SO, I am doing a 5 day Reboot (Express), immediately followed by a 10 day Reboot (Quick Start)... Hopefully, after that I can start a juice only Reboot.

The point of all this is to get the toxins out of my body, to be able to stop taking medications, to lose weight. I have to start exercising, too. That is really holding me back. The 5 day Reboot I am currently doing is a warm-up for better things to come, sort of like I am getting my feet wet...

I love my juicer, love the juices coming out of it. The greens aren't bitter and nasty, as I remember drinking years ago, but very palatable and tasty because if the apple and lemon added to it. I also found the benefits of lemon by doing a search on Google. So I am trying to use more lemon in the juices and also in the tea I drink first thing in the morning, and last thing at night.

Happy, happy, off to a good start, but I have a long way to go... One Day at a Time comes to mind.

Happy Juicing, everyone!!!
