Juicing: Day 11

Woke up extra early to get all the juicing done for the morning.

Breakfast Juice:

1/5 bunch kale
4 carrots
1 HoneyCrisp apple
1 small bunch of grapes

Veeery sweet juice.

I made another strawberry/oatmeal smoothie (with some yogurt for protein) for lunch, but Stu will be eating a sandwich.

Tonight Stu will have juice for dinner, but I might be eating one of the freezer meals I put up - sauteed squash, onions and mushrooms. And maybe some Couscous. Yummy!

We'll be going to three juices/smoothies a day sometime later this week.

I'm a little concerned that if I have hypothyroidism (which I'm pretty sure I have - I have all the symptoms, including the fact that my body temperature is always below 98 degrees - it's somewhere around 96), I won't be losing weight. So I need to go to the free clinic and get some bloodwork done. If I do have it, I will be taking dessicated thyroid (cow or pig thyroid), which is the standard procedure. I might look into natural things as well. Is it bad to hope that somehow juicing will jumpstart my thyroid again? (Or is that possible?)

I have noticed my hair getting longer (huzzah!), and my skin not breaking out as much. And I think I've lost a tiny bit of weight. Not sure yet -- I'll have to weigh myself at the gym.
