Day 3: Juice 2

2 oranges

3 carrots

1 yellow bell pepper

1" piece of ginger

1/2 jalepeño

This is probably my favorite juice. I was in a hurry when I took the pic, so it's not focused properly, but there are orange specks in it.

Spicy!!

Day 3: Juice 1

2 apples

1/3 of a HUGE papaya

1/2 a lemon

lots and lots of spinach

Standard. Functional. Delicious.

Day 2 Observations

Day 2 was not so great. I had an incredibly difficult time getting up this morning and yoga was painful. I'm trying to get to bed earlier tonight, because I think that was part of it. (Yet here I am at midnight... ftw) I was pretty sluggish, mentally, and practicing my horn was pretty rough. Cravings were pretty bad, especially when my Cuban roommates got home and started cooking what you see in the picture below. I have no idea what it was, but the spices in it smelled fantastic...

A few "interesting" observations I had were that after the ridiculously huge pitcher of juice I accidentally made and had to drink midday, I felt rather sleepy, similarly to how I would feel after eating a meal that was way too big. However, after waiting it out for about an hour, I was able to go on a half-hour bike ride with no problems! (What is UP with this crazy warm weather?!) Also "interesting" was that, after eating quite a lot of beets, my pee was very pink... haha

Off to bed. More of the same tomorrow!

Awesome-smelling Cuban food...
