The adventure begins Saturday

Thanks to all of the support!  I appreciate your "welcomes", dazzle, sunearth, raddish, and albertjohnson.  Also, I want to let ausjulie know how much I appreciate her blog reporting post fast.  I am so afraid of going into starvation mode and gaining tons of weight afterwards.

One blogger made a comment that everything you eat is a part of your diet.  It just depends on what diet are you on.  I told my mom about this so she wouldn't invite me over to dinner, and she is freaking out.  But considering that she is 300+ lbs, and if I continue eating the way I was raised to eat thus end up like her, I am not worried about her freaking out. 

I think Dave Ramsey once said that if you want to be rich, then watch and learn how a rich man behaves/spends; if you want to be thin, watch and learn how a thin person behaves/eats.  Very wise.  And, I am sad to say this, but my mom is not is good role model for diet/excercise.  Quick note: My main goal is not to lose weight, but to be healthy.

However! My bible study teacher, who is super cute and sweet, told me she wasn't eating very much.  I asked her why, because it didn't make sense where this was coming from, and she said it was to keep up with me.  She also suggested that I set small goals to achieve during my journey so I don't get discouraged.  She so supportive and awesome!

Baseline info:
These are some of the symptoms I hope the detox will remedy:
1. lethargic
2. depression (depending on which foods I eat)
3. weight
4. groggy mind
5. yellow in the eyes
6. pallid complexion

By the way, thanks, Dazzle!  The link you sent me was awesome.  Those were some great articles.  I especially liked the article that discussed how your digestive system works.  No wonder I am so sleepy after eating a heavy meal: all my energy is going towards digesting it!  It was also good to read The Ups and Downs of Juice Fasting and understand upfront why I will feel bad, sensitive, and/or depressed and what is happening to my body. 

Question
I read some of your comments about oxypowder.  It seems the overall response is positive.  Any comments?  Also, where can I get some that it won't cost $40+ a bottle.

Oh, I found a 15 pack of litmus paper at www.ph-ion.com for a little over $5.00 including shipping.

I have enjoyed reading your blogs; it gives me hope this will work!  Have a great day.
