Today's Symptom's: More improvement of my labia!! Yes!! It's working!! I have about 20% improvement in my strength, but still don't want to get out of bed. Although I have to pick up the kids from school and take the girls to dance. Oh, and I still have a white tongue, and strong BO and the one I can't understand is gas???
I got out of bed, got dressed, did my hair, made up my eyes, wrote some checks to pay for my kids dance and piano classes, and made a barley-lentil soup, and salad for my family (they are vegan, but I give them lots of raw food too!) for dinner tonight. It felt so good to be serving them again for a change!I love my family more than anything!
I was feeling really weak again and funky standing there cutting veggies, like my body was trying to adjust to doing stuff again after laying in bed for 2 weeks, I felt so determined to get my strength back! I took a B-12, 2 probiotics, Blue-Green Algae, The Sun is Shining, and a vitamin-mineral pill with a bottle of mineralized water. I started to feel a bit better!
I picked up the kids from school, made them an after school snack which was a sliced apple and almonds for my youngest son, and a strawberry, banana, orange salad with walnuts Mmmm... for the girls and we were off to dance class. It felt so good to be in the car again out in the world! Too bad there was no sunshine. I NEED to get some rays for some Vit.D and warming of my soul sooo bad!
Plus, it aids in healing :)
After I got home I went straight to bed again. I think that was good enough for today don't cha think?
By the way, THANK YOU soooooo much for your support and words of encouragement. They are like little hugs for my heart! Please keep me in your prayers. I believe they really do make it up to Heaven and God answers them. He IS answering them. I am so very grateful!

Hope you have a little energy today. I have a question for you on your wheatgrass. I used to do it and haven't for a while. Do you buy the flats of wheatgrass at Good Earth? Do you grow it yourself? How much do you have to harvest to get 2 oz? I just found I was harvesting a ton and barely getting any. I would cut it down and let it grow again and it would end up burning up. It was frustrating to me but I would love to do it again, I want to go back to doing wheat grass and drinking greens.
ReplyDeleteRight now we buy the whole flat of it. When the grass is full grown, it takes about a 3 in. row across the short length of the try for 2 oz. I used to grow it. We water it everyday and keep it near light, but not IN the sun. It only regrows once. I buy 2 trays at a time so that by the time I'm done with one tray the next one is ready.
ReplyDeleteTo grow your own. Take 2 c. raw organic wheat and soak overnight. Drain in the morning and leave in a strainer over a bowl next to the sink. For the next 2 days. Everytime you get the chance rinse the wheat. When you notice that the grain has sprouted a tail it's ready to plant. In the flat tray, add about 1/2 in to 1 in. of organic soil. Spread the grains evenly on top. Do not cover with soil. water and Cover with undyed papertowels and wet the paper towels. Keep the papertowels wet. When you notice the grass growing take off the papertowels. Keep the flat near a window but not directly in the sun. Voila!
Good Luck Heather! Those are excellent goals!
Oh, yes, we get it at The Good Earth. :)
ReplyDeleteRMM, What an inspiration! I just read your entire blog and you are awesome! I have a disease that is brutal on my body, I have psoriatic arthritis and it is horrible. I ahve been thinking about a water fast and veggie/fruit juice fast. Do you make your own juice??? God Bless you and I hope that everything keeps going well!! How much longer will you continue to fast, also how much weight have you lost because of it?
ReplyDeleteI am a vegan and I have a blog too, but it is cooked food, I haven't started my raw juice blog, but it is set up, and I have 1 follower and no posts, go fiure, maybe it is a hint for me to start!...
Hi V.V.! Sorry to hear about the arthritis. Suffering is so hard, but it's also a great teacher, right? I read somewhere that when you are in pain, God is talking to you. I'm not sure about that, but I DO know that you absolutely draw closer to Him.
ReplyDeleteIf you are thinking about juice fasting...DO IT! If you read my blog and already have set up a juicing blog... JUST DO IT!!
My totally awesome husband has been making most of my juices, especially during the harder times. When my energy was up I did my own.
I don't know how long I'm going to juice. Well, I know that I want my labia to be completely healed, so, I think that's how long I'm gonna do it.
As of today I've lost 23 lbs. But I DO NOT CARE about weight. As long as I am totally healthy, it matters not!
I recommend studying, reading, googling, youtubing EVERY piece of information on juicing that you can get FIRST!
2nd. PREPARE your body for a fast. Go on a 100% raw food diet, mostly just fruits and veggies as they are easier for your body and it also starts the detoxing, for as long as it takes you to feel 100% ready to feast. You will know. Listen to your body.
Also, I prefer the juicing over the water fast. I got so terribly weak. But every BODY is different. Go with your instinct.
Lastly. Do Colonics right away. Get one once a week. IMPORTANT. Or, if you can't afford that, do enemas.
I KNOW that you can heal the arthritis. Study about it. Look into raw food more. Being vegan is totally fantastic too! Except it still can be filled with a lot of processed junk like, white flour, yeast, sugar, oils, fried foods, white rice, white pasta, and hidden animal food in processed foods and soups and pies and cakes and cookies.
If I were you. I would study. I would eat raw then juice until you are completely healed. Once you are healed you can start adding perhaps 20% of your diet cooked organic quality vegan foods again.
You can do it! And now you have 1 more "follower"! :)
