Day #1

Unfortunately, this day was spent wrestling with a demon-migraine who I picked a fight with by opting out of caffeine world ever so gradually over the last two weeks.  Yesterday was my first official day with 0% of the drug coursing through my veins...and I boasted out loud to my husband..."hey, off caffeine, with no headaches."  And SUDDENLY out of nowhere I had a specific and spectacular headache that progressively grew to epic proportions from 10:00pm through the night and all day today...finally leaving my body at 4:00pm.  That's 18 hours of PAIN...the kind that makes you want to beat your head against a wall...which I actually did a few times.  And that is all I have to say about that.  I'm very glad to be relieved of that madness.
So here I am at the start again...trying this juice feast AGAIN.  I've been trying to get the ball rolling since March 7th of this year.  Guess I just had to work myself into it.  And Day #1 is now done.  Since I spent most of the day in BED, I don't have a long list of juicy delights for show...
But I did manage to consume:  1 quart of watermelon loveliness and 1 quart of romaine, celery, apple tolerable tonic.  Tomorrow will be a beautiful day.  I just know it.  Right now I'm sleepy.
