Happy Valentine's day again. A gorgeous day that brought many smiles to my face. I had a date on skype with my boyfriend this morning and a big beautiful vase of flowers this afternoon. <3
As for juicing, I thought I would be romantic and make exactly what I was craving. Orange juice. For my morning drink I made orange, carrot, spinach, celery, blackberry. I really only craved orange, carrot, and blackberry but I needed to work my celery and greens in too. It was delicious as you can see and it even came out nice enough that I could make a heart shape in it. 


So, I have been craving Orange juice all day yesterday and today. I attribute it to working out. I've never had such strong cravings as today. I made orange in all my drinks but my last one which I always make savory and similar to V8. I wanted to know if this need for orange juice is okay at this point so I looked on the Juice Feasting website and the timeline showed that I should have tried to cut back on sweet fruity drinks about ten days ago! I thought that It would be okay with working out and I read somewhere that you can start working out harder after forty days...But I was mistaken again. The website said that you can workout harder after 60 days. I've had a pretty rigorous schedule and I am used to it and I don't want to stop. I hope that I am not damaging myself or my juice feast. I think I will do some more research and find out exactly what the consequences would be. 



Back to Msm powder. My friend has been experiencing the same sulfurous symptoms that I had. We decided to cut back and hope that this just means that we don't need it as much. That is another question that I plan to look into.



I almost forgot to mention! My composting worms came today! A bunch of tiny little 
guys ready to see their new home. 

Also, I bought some organic soil and treys to start growing my own wheatgrass. The wheat berries are soaking now. I can't wait! I love saving money by growing my own things!

It's late again and I need to sleep.
