Day 52 ♥
Today was kind of a special day for me because I reached the 52 day mark, which is the longest that I have previously gone, in this lifetime, on Orange juice.
I did a 52 day Orange juice diet back in 1995. It was a great experience and really helped to pave the way for me on a fruit diet. I found that after this 1995 Orange juice diet, I was better able to assimilate my fruit and I seemed to get more value from fruit —I just felt that the fruit I ate was doing me so much more good.
I ended my first 52 Orange juice diet, not because I felt ready to stop but because my friends and family were concerned about how much weight I had lost. Me, myself, I felt stronger than usual and had plenty of energy, but I was 28lbs less than my normal weight. This time around I am about 14lbs less than my 'normal' weight.
So that is an interesting difference. I am seeming to lose less weight each time I do an extended mono Orange juice diet.
Yesterday,I was looking at my 'Orange Juice Diaries' on my website
and I have lost less weight this time than I did on a 26 mono Orange juice diet two and a half years ago in May 2007.
However, I do think that weight loss is a factor to take into account in mono Orange juice diets. I am feeling now that I am getting to the stage where I look pretty thin. I feel great and feel strong and energetic—more so than on a mixed fruit diet — but I can appreciate that I might not look so strong!
I am just loving the Syrup Ball Oranges, they are so wee, but so packed with flavour.
I desire and enjoy them so much. And I do not feel the need or desire for any other fruits when I have them by my side ♥
I am also really enjoying dancing and exercising ♥

Wishing you great quality fruit and great health and happiness ♥ ♥

Enjoying sharing your celebration with you on this special day. Very interesting about how your body is becoming more efficient on fewer calories. (Or that's the way I interpreted it...)
