Jojo, I want to ask you something. You know about my “food program,” but honestly, I feel very confused. In theory, I know what’s considered “bad” and what contains toxins, etc…and the protein topic in my mind understands that maybe it’s not necessary, yet another part of me feels like I still want it. On the other hand, since starting our detox group healing last year, now I know beans aren’t good. But then I think about lentils, chickpeas, or quinoa — which I love — as options to add to my salads… and I still question myself: how am I supposed to eat this if it’s not good for me? I haven’t eaten beans in a long time. Considering I no longer eat fish, meat, or eggs, I see myself being more flexible with salads, chicken, grains, and soups — but I keep wondering if this is actually good for me or not. I feel like I have so many beliefs around food now that I didn’t have before — or at least I didn’t think I had. Before, I didn’t overthink it this much. I just “ate healthy” and actually felt good in my body… but since discovering all of this, it has honestly become very confusing for me. My body changed, And I think this may have even pushed me into the hormones program.

So yesterday I woke up on the last day of fast and was so physically weak and mentally tired . That was a bit surprising as the day before I was strangely with energy and I was at this point on water . I panicked a bit cause I had a busy day . Driving to see my daughter helping her as she had surgery ( carpal tunnel surgery) and staying overnight taking her to her post op surgery appointment ( which I’m doing today ) . So I made the decision to juice watermelon in the am , well Eric did it for me cause my legs were like rubber to weak to stand almost and I was to lightheaded. I first drank electrolyte water , then the watermelon juice , felt less lightheaded and weak I then got on my vibration plate and what a game changer . I felt less weak in my legs and was able to stand normal. I jumped in shower . Started to get dressed and then oh no off to the bathroom. My bowels were reacting to the juice .So I was a bit delayed getting on road cause of that . But I juiced the rest of the day . There is a place near my daughter that sells cold pressed juices . I ordered from there and continued the day on juices. Slept over doing the 3 hour mp3 that Leo led recently. That was a tough one to do again . But my channel is often more clear during these fasts . I was fighting not falling asleep . Just getting up now as I’m writing this . Going to take her to doctor . Then I’m going home in late afternoon early evening . I’m continuing today on juice as i want to be home when I introduce food back ( to be near bathroom in case ) or maybe stay juicing over weekend . It would be great if I could do water fast over the weekend . Keep the momentum going . But I am loosing weight and that’s ok but my clothes are starting to get too big and I can’t be replacing my clothes yet again after the first amount of weight I lost . But I certainly can afford to loose the weight . I’m not underweight for my height😂 . Anyway I missed the last check-in cause I was driving and wanted to concentrate on that as I was feeling better than when I woken but still a bit off .

I buy organic apples, but recently I’ve been hearing that some of them have an extra wax-like coating that might not be the healthiest. I usually wash mine with vinegar or baking soda and scrub them with a brush, but apparently that’s not always enough. Today I noticed a film on the skin, and when I gently scraped it with a knife, you could actually see the layer coming off. I mean… I’m doing my best 😅 I already drank my apple juice without removing it, so I’m hoping everything is fine. Has anyone else experienced this? What do you usually do to clean your apples?

Today is Day 5 🙌🏽🙌🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽 Some of you chose to transition from juicing into water fasting. Some of you have continued juicing. And some of you have completed your fast and begun re-nourishing. Whatever choice you made, trust that it was the right one for your body. There is no “better” way here. Listening to yourself is the work. Take a moment to acknowledge how far you’ve come. Five days of commitment, awareness, and self-leadership is something to feel proud of. 💛 Check in with us below: - How are you feeling today? - Where are you in your fast right now? - Still juicing? - Water fasting? - Or have you completed your fast and started re-feeding? Your experience matters and helps others feel less alone in theirs. We are also currently working on a Liver Flush Cleanse that I’ll be personally guiding the group through later this month. The full course and guidance will be released in about one week. This liver flush program will be available exclusively to our Gold and Platinum members only.

When you fast or juice, the body naturally shifts out of digest mode and into repair, cleanse, and recalibration mode. This is a big internal change. Hormones shift, minerals flush, the nervous system becomes more alert, and circulation patterns change. When several of these happen at once, the body can feel a little unsettled, especially at night. Here’s what’s really going on: 1. Blood sugar and adrenal support Without solid food, blood sugar can dip overnight. The body responds intelligently by releasing adrenaline and cortisol to keep you safe and stable. This can feel like restlessness, feeling wired but tired, or difficulty falling or staying asleep. This is not anxiety. It is the body doing its job. 2. Mineral flushing, especially sodium and magnesium Juicing moves fluids fast. With that comes mineral loss if they are not replenished. When minerals dip, people often feel cold, tense, crampy, internally agitated, or like their sleep is shallow or broken. That “I can’t get warm” feeling is a huge clue here. 3. Increased nervous system activity during detox As toxins, waste, and old buildup release, the nervous system becomes more alert. Nighttime is when the body does most of its repair work, so this can temporarily show up as racing thoughts, irritability, or lighter sleep. This is a phase. It settles as the body considers the environment safe again. 4. Digestion naturally slows at night The body does not want to process heavy or sweet inputs late in the evening. Juices or fruit close to bedtime can stimulate energy when the body wants rest, then create a drop that wakes you up. ⸻ 🌿 What helps immediately and gently • Add warmth at night. Socks, extra blankets, or a warm shower before bed • Replenish minerals. A pinch of sea salt in warm water or a mineral-rich broth earlier in the evening • Keep evenings lighter. Aim to stop juices 2 to 3 hours before sleep • If hunger shows up, listen. A small grounding food like banana, apple sauce, or potato can calm the nervous system and support sleep. This does not undo the cleanse. It supports it.
