Good Evening.
I hope everyone is having a great day today. You know it was really nasty outside tonight but I had a great day, seems like I have been having a few of those days.  Tomorrow it will be 3 weeks since my journey began.  Wow I can’t believe how fast these 3 weeks have went by.  I feel great.
Last night Brandy Jo and I were talking and she asked me if I would just start the juice fast like on the movie Fat Sick and Nearly Dead. Of course, I stepped up and told her of course I would do it.  I’m not sure what I got myself into but I’m doing it so today was the first day of my juice fast and you know, I haven’t missed anything just yet.  It does feel a little weird just juicing and not having anything else but I think I can get past this as well.  You know when Brandy Jo first suggested that we do this I was like “yeah right (when pigs fly out of me arse)” but after I thought about it, I realized I was wanting to tweak what I was doing anyway, so I committed.  Of course, she is doing it as well, although I think it is real easy for her.  Our plan is to do this till we have the viewing of Fat Sick and Nearly Dead, next week at the Yoga Seed Collective, it is going to be great!  This morning we had a visitor. Sukhbir showed up and told us that she was going to be joining us for the juice fast as well. When she said this, I couldn’t believe it!  I was really taken back by her will power because she is the owner of a restaurant and is around “real” food everyday (and beer).  She owns Dad’s Kitchen here in Sacramento… I love the place! especially the Angry Man Sandwhich mmmmmm   it is my favorite.  I can’t believe she has to be around this stuff daily.  Just to say she wanted to try and do the juice fast is awesome.  I really hope she is able to pull it off because I know it will be really good for her, and will instill more of a sense of discipline that it takes to change our diets. So YAY Sukhbir.
It’s odd, this evening I had a little bit of headache, not sure if it is just the juice fast or if it is my vision it could be either right now.  I will be sure to let everyone know tomorrow.  I can’t believe how busy Brandy Jo and I have been ~ it’s a full time job trying to keep up with her and her business.  I’m really enjoying it though, it’s really fun being around her and her clients, especially when I see so many of them improving right before my eyes.  A few of the ladies that stopped in today, of course brought up food and each of their relationships with food and I found it very interesting how food can effect everyone differently but also something I didn’t think is that there were a lot of similiarities in some of our habits.  A funny comment that Corri, made was that it  much easier when we DIDN’T know how to eat.. ignorance is sometimes bliss. I’m not trying to sound neurotic, but at the same time I think there is a new level of awareness on my part that I’m grateful for.  I really think everyone needs more education in nutrition across the board.  For those of you that do know about nutrition, I encourage you to share that knowledge whenever you can.  There are many people out there hungry for what you know about food.  As I said in the past, if you are close enough, come to one of Brandy’s workshops or set up a consult you will be glad you did.
As it gets closer, I’m kind of getting excited about the 28th I’m looking forward to seeing what the Fried Yard Bird or the Pizza is going to taste like.  I’m sure I will enjoy the taste of which ever I decide (I’m just not so sure I’m looking forward to the outcome.)  I also know that I’m going to an event called Winterfest that evening, 3 hours of wine and beer tasting that should be a pretty good time, although I am a little worried about that outcome as well.  I’m not sure what my stomach will be able to handle, it might be a short night :) .  Although I’m looking forward to splurging a little bit on some “guilty food” I’m also very excited to continue eating healthy.  It’s something I don’t want to ever stop doing.  Thats me folks.
