Day 21 and dishpan hands
I'm on day 21, the end of it that is, and still hanging in there. I had a small salad yesterday with a teeny amount of dressing but it stopped my weight loss. It's ok, I'm happy with the 15 lbs I've lost so far. Obviously I have a lot more weight to lose and I will be continuing with the juice in some form after the 28 days. I haven't decided how much, but I will keep juicing. My biggest complaint(s) are how long it takes to juice every night and how hard it is on my poor hands.
My hands are a mess! Dishpan hands big time! They are dry and rough and it hurts! Plus peeling the limes and other Citris fruit gets into my cuts and stings like crazy! I can't knit because my hands hurt so much. I have started wearing gloves for some of the washing up but preparing the fruits and veggies is not easy with gloves. I wash everything again and again. And my neck hurts from looking down to cut it all up. Ok. I'll quit complaining now. I'm happy with the results but wish I could afford a juice chef. Lol. My husband helps sometimes but he has a lot of other chores too. So I tough it out.
My blood pressure just measure at 100/68 so I am tickled about that. No more meds for me! I'm thinking to wean off of the thyroid medicine too just to see where I am. I'll go get blood tests later once I'm off everything just to see. My numbers were great last time I checked and I wonder how much they have improved since then. I had to get some new clothes this weekend too. So life is good. Hahaha
