Day 6

Good morning into a rainy day around 7:30... Let's see how juice fasting goes when gray & rainy outside. Hey, sixth morning - measurements checking! Not bad! Even though this was & is not the aim of my fasting - three kilos down (I only have Ikea's cheapest balance, so don't count on preciser info ;-) and four centimeters less around waist (pity I wasn't measuring this one yesterday, before colon hydrotherapy - apparently you lose some waist during this therapy) since the first morning of my fast. 

Wow, I'm bathing in freesias perfume when at laptop - smaller of Sunday's bouquets is right beside me... I adore this smell! And flowers. Especially red ones. Hmm, my tall hibiscus seems to be on strike: one gorgeous red flower a day before fasting, and no buds detected since.

Berry took a day off today, for renovating. I brought him a coffee mug around 11h. Unpleasant surprise on my way back: both elevators "under maintenance"!!! If one lives on 14th floor, one wishes to at least smack somebody at that moment... Although, apparently it's a great exercise, taking the stairs... Go girl! And I went. Slowly. Up to 14th floor. Stair by stair. Well, there's no coincidences in life... ;-) You don't want to exercise on your own? No worries, universe will make you do at least some... ;-) And by the way, I'm really in a bad shape at present... ;-(  C'mon, there's even a calorie counter for walking the stairs available on the web!
