With working in the evenings comes intense psychological hunger. My schedule for eating dinner is kind of sad during term as I work from 6:15-10:15pm three nights a week. I usually eat dinner upon returning home at 10:30pm. Some find this unhealthy, but my dietitian in the US said that if something works for me, then I should stick to it. I am ( Read more... )

Sorry I was in such a foul mood yesterday, everyone. I think I had been overloaded with stress about the all-important interview and then with the lack of any sustenance in juice form to be found for about 24 hours of traveling and what was likely a "detox low" I was just past the point of crabby.

I took a long, warm bath last night, which in ( Read more... )

I don't even know how to begin this note as I am incredibly irritable at the moment. Most people love coming home and yet, I find myself loathing it. The house is a mess and freezing; things are in complete disarray--drawers, shelves, computer cords, etc--and Elu has broken not only a nice notebook given to me by my brother, but he's broken our ( Read more... )

About to head into work and I have shedloads of watermelon juice going with me, as after work, I'm walking to the train station to catch my train to London. Hopefully I'll be able to find a juice bar with vegetable juices on the way, but as its Sunday evening, I'm a bit worried ( Read more... )

Kwok and I got about 16 oranges peeled and ready to go last night before we went to bed. We set them in the fridge so I wouldn't have to spend all morning getting a juice ready before work ( Read more... )

Wow- one week! One week! It's actually been pretty easy going. Sure the crackers and oat squares and nut mixes in the house look tempting at moments, but I've really not craved any dairy whatsoever, which I think is really interesting. I'm, somewhat sadly, not seeing any major weight loss, like other people do by this stage, BUT I also never weigh ( Read more... )

I got out of bed really late again today, I was finishing off re-reading Susan Sontag's AIDS and its Metaphors in preparation for my interview on Monday. To be honest, despite Oxford being right here on my doorstep, King's is really my best choice--it has the faculty I need and my Truman will cover the two years, giving me all $30,000 of my ( Read more... )

There is a real satisfaction to blogging this each day. I think to myself, "Oo! Day FIVE!" So, I am 1/6 of the way through. I think I'm going to have juicing parties on the real marker days either 10, 15, 20. I'll let you know ( Read more... )

Elu is clambering to go out for his walk again, so I'll make this quick. Woke up feeling great again. Have been reading that its better to drink green juice straight away in the morning, but initially that felt like punishment, but now that I've worked it into my palette, I did that this morning ( Read more... )
