92 Days of Juice Feasting

Day #48: Bread Practice

My sugar this morning was 5.0. the highest it’s been for a while in the morning, but once again I had a lie in.

Something’s been happening the last few morning that I’ll mention now. When juicing, which is usually about 20 or so minutes after getting up, I feel like I’m really struggling to stay standing, like my heart needs a rest. Almost like I’ve been doing some intense exercise and I’m about to collapse.

This is good, so I’ve decided that I definitely need more sleep, for what I’m putting my body through. So I’m going to dedicate next week to catching up on sleep. I’ll be going to bed early every night and getting up when I get up every morning. My work will be done during the late morning and afternoon I guess, but I feel like I really need to address how I’ve been feeling, and apart from the obvious (diet) I think it must be lack of sleep.

We did a bit more DIY on the garage and the Homeopathic clinic today, and I made bread for my son and wife too - first time not using a bread machine, and they both said they really liked it. Now, while this might seem like a completely selfless act, there’s method in my altruism. When I get off this juice feast I’ve decided I’m going to make my own bread, control the sugar content (i.e. none), flour type and flavour. But I also decided that I don’t need to wait until I’ve finished to start practising! I can practise on the fam until I get it right, by which time, (hopefully) I’ll be partaking You see!

Anyway, I’m glad they liked it, I think I’ll make another loaf tomorrow (needed a bit more yeast if you ask me).

My wife and I went ’round to a friend’s house tonight and had a nice evening with more friends - a good Saturday night. It was a little tough watching everyone dig in to dips and chips and beer, but I can’t exclude myself from all social get togethers can I?

As I type this closing sentence, I’m hungry and tired. But thankful to, that I’m not also cold and wet. All four is no fun for anyone.

‘night.
