Juicing & smoothies & SUNSHINE!

Wow, my apartment's like livin' in an oven today!!! Hot, HOT, HOT!!!
I'm sitting here drinking my grapefruit lemon smoothie I made yesterday, it's soooooo delicious! Hannah drank LOTS of it this morning, so I only got 2 glasses full~
I think I'm going to juice fast today, if i can find enough stuff in the fridge, I may also have one smoothie later. I will as long as the produce holds out.(Groceries on Friday, hoping to find a ride to the Farmer's Market this wekend!)
The more RAW I've been having, the better I'm feeling by the day, & the more my strength & energy are returning. When I was in the middle of whatever was going on with my body, I felt like it wasn't my body, & something overall was definately unreal feeling, & today is the first day sinse then i feel like myself in my own body again.
One thing I've learned, though, is that i can no longer sleep on my hip! I did last night, & can barely walk today, the pain in my hip & down my leg is so intense! I've been sleeping on my back for quite a while but couldn't fall asleep last night until I layed on my side. The Dr. wanted me to go for X-rays months ago, convinced i have arthritis in it, it was so bad every day, until i forced myself to sleep on my back~
Off to go exercise & then plan out a shopping list to try some new raw recipes!
Have a marvrawlous day!

Now if i could just feel this way 24/7, 365 days a year!!! Lol!
Thanks, I am feeling very hopeful, positive, & confident that God'll help me to keep going this time & not allow ANYTHING to distract me! Not even my own body!
