♥ Happy New Year ♥ Day 35 Mono Orange Juice.

Day 35.
The past two days has felt as though I am eliminating something. My body fat is still reducing (it was 10% when I measured it today). So I feel that it could be some stored toxins that are being released as my body fat is released.
I marvel at how wise the body is in storing anything harmful away from the vital organs, and in the place that the body deems least harmful.
I often get asked, 'What could you possibly have left to eliminate', when people see that I am on a mono juice diet.
I reason that my body had 24 years of eating cooked foods, 14 years of taking allopathic medicines, X-rays when I was in utero and as a child (I had a heart murmer), 20 years of eating dairy, and no years of taking breast milk.
Also I am not an island, I live in a world of farmers who spray their crops, of cars and vehicles which emit exhaust pollutants, of household chemicals and personal deoderants (I only use natural house cleaners but come into contact with other households), of people who spray weedkillers on the paths where I walk, and a whole host of other environmental toxins to which I am daily exposed.
As I say, I am not an island and unless I go and live on one in the middle of the Pacific Ocean then I will still be absorbing a certain amount of toxins daily.
Another factor is that I have never taken a fast or mono diet to completion.
By this I mean to the point where the tongue is perfectly clean.
I feel that I came close in 1995 with my 52 day Orange juice diet. But I have always broken the diet ot fast before this point.
Maybe it is the deepest stored toxins that are the last to come out.
Having said this I still have lots of energy and feel good.
I generally wake between 4am and 5am and am ready to jump out of bed (and start typing my diary from the day before!) My exercises are easier to do than 'normal' and I sleep the best and the most soundly, but need less sleep than usual.

So I am not sure how long I will carry on. I feel like I would like to reach the 40 day mark. The Mangoes on our trees are getting perfectly ripe now, so I feel that they would make a great juice-breaker ♥
Also Queensland Rambutans are coming in, so they are one of my favourites and fresh jammy Figs will soon be in season. So I will have a wealth to choose from when I finish the mono-diet.

Day 33 Mono Orange Juice.

Day 33 ♥

I am continuing to feel good on the juice, sleep is just wonderful, energy levels are good, flexibility is improved, lung capacity seems greater.

I noticed today though that the smell of other fruits was starting to attract me; I cut up some Apricots for Cappi and they smelt very good to me.

I do not think I have taken the Orange juice to conclusion though, but I am feeling that to take it to conclusion I would prefer being away from 'civilization', My weight, I feel, is quite acceptable now, but it can be challenging being at a lower weight among folk who do not understand what is going on.

If I was starting to feel weak or malnourished (which I am not) I would stop the diet. However, it is another matter to stop it because of other people's opinions, which happened with my extended juice diet in 1995.

For the moment I shall continue, because the juice I am having tastes like nectar and I adore it and it makes me feel very joyous, and energetic and free.

Today I hand juiced and then strained the juice. Because the Oranges are not as ripe as I feel they could be, I think that it may be better for my teeth to hand-juice and then strain the juice and drink from a glass.

It was interesting because doing that I actually measured how much juice I was consuming for the first time.

I was using the same amount of Oranges that I usually do when I have three lots of juice per day, and more than when I have two lots of juice. My Oranges have been little ones.
