Last minute news, I’ve just made myself apple and celeriac juice and I liked it a lot so probably for next few days it will be my main juice. ]]>
Oh WOW! A broken juicer would be a challenge. Hope you have already secured your new juicer and are happily juicing away as I write this…
You are doing an EXCELLENT job girl!

I am glad your cycle started without any signs or cravings! That is fantastic.
I have had such horrible PMS for some time now. My poor husband! It is a wonder he wants to live with me for a week before my cycles and sometimes I dont want to live with me. LOL.
I tend to think PMS, could be caused by a build up of toxins in the body and certainly poor diet. I really feel after this time of cleansing and delving into a proper diet afterwards, will rid me of most, if not all of my PMS symptoms.
You are right watermelon juice is lovely!
You have a good day and Happy Fasting!

]]>It’s funny you posted a comment about your period – in the morning I thought I was really well and I wondered if it would remain the same when I get period. And so I did, in the afternoon. My cycle is rather regular and I ususally have no pain, just some tension. I sometimes assume it will start in a few days on the basis of my mood swings and enourmous craving for food, especially sweets. And this time I had no signs. No tension and luckily no craving for food. I even went with my brother to a food shop and didn’t feel like buying anything except watermelon which gave a lovely juice 
I was thinking about doing an enema today… I dont like them either, but I am considering it…
You take care! ~Rose ]]>
As for my mental state – I feel some hunger from time to time but I can easly deal with it. On Friday I started reading a book “Forgotten Voices of the Holocaust” – a profound experience to read all those stories of survivors and their starvation while fasting. ]]>
Thank you for your kind words. You are more than welcome to follow my journey during this fast.
I tried to search for your user name, but it brought me to “trueberry”, is this you?
I am wondering how day 1 of your juice fast went? You will do fine, sister.
Stay hydrated with plenty of water and fresh juice. After three days, you lose hunger and after that is just your mind that may think about food, but the body just says “ick”. Keep in mind the reasons, why you are fasating. Stay in conversation with the Lord throughout your day. Let Him be your strength.
Looking forward to hearing how you are doing.

]]>I did not look back to see what I wrote in my profile, but when I did my 17 day juice fast several years ago it was specifically to fight the HPV and high grade lesions on my cervix, as well as the cyst/tumor on my cervix (and irregular bleeding). My physician at the time 1) First suggested I have a hysterectomy 2) If I did not have a hysterectomy, to have surgery to cut out the cyst/tumor on my cervix. I told him he was never getting my uterus and I would go home and study, to see what natural treatments were available to me. He told me I had three months or I could not be his patient anymore. So we agreed on three months. So I studied from different books I had and online information.
During my 17 day juice fast at that time, I performed different vaginal douches-of apple cider vinegar and of food grade hydrogen peroxide in water. (I had read a lot about food grade hydrogen peroxide being a fantastic fighter of virus. So I ordered some from online, as there was nowhere to buy it locally) I also made some vaginal suppositories from different herbs with different antibiotic and cancer fighting abilities. I alternated these with garlic cloves, which I used as vag suppositories as well. I spent a lot of time in prayer and focusing my mind on my body healing my female parts.
When I went back to the physician, who had diagnosed me with the HPV and cyst and high grade lesions, he did a repeat pap smear and test for HPV. The HPV came back negative and the pap smear showed that the cells were “repairing themselves”. He was pretty astounded. However I still had the cyst/tumor on my cervix, being it was benign I chose to leave it be, at that time.
I would also like to note that my periods at that time were normal for about six months!!! However I went back to the SAD diet and they slowly started becoming more and more abnormal, till I am once again bleeding up to 3 and a half weeks at a time.
Of course as I wrote in my profile a month ago, it seemed as if the HPV was back in the form of warts… or what I thought was a couple warts, as I did not go to have it diagnosed by a physician. I self treated those (and they have been gone for a few weeks) and started up on my hydrogen peroxide douches, just to do some precautionary internal cleansing as well.
I just thought I would share my testimony of what helped me at that time. I am not a doctor and I am not giving medical advice. I am an RN and have been for twenty years, but I have firm belief in the Great Physician and the miraculous power He has given our bodies to heal, if we only fuel them and treat them correctly.

P.S. I really like the idea of a veggie broth. I wanted to water fast the whole 30 days, but I feel I will have to do that 1-2 days at a time, as I am not quite strong enough to start out with just water.
P.S.S. I think you should be fine driving, but make sure to have some fresh juice with you, maybe something a little sweet, keep your sugar up and keep you energized during the trip…?????
P.S.S.S Your English was just fine.
