I'm so sorry to hear about this Nova.Yesterday, I got some crappy news from one of my nieces.
I really like this quote @Nova!Then I read something that shocked me out of that way of being:
"Pain is when you stub your toe. Suffering is when it bothers you that you stubbed your toe."
Do you mind if I pry and ask what is in your green juice? I'm just curious because sometimes they put things like raw broccoli or kale in those drinks that can interfere with good thyroid function.lots of green juice,

The ingredients as listed on the company website:
Juices (Celery*, Pear*, Apple*, Kale*, Lemon*, Fennel*, Ginger Root*)
There is kale in it.
I drink green juice because I'm not good about eating veggies. I kinda figured if I'm not going to eat veggies, I should at least drink them. Especially since I'm not taking vitamins or supplements at the moment. It's just me and my very limited HCLF diet. *sigh*
I feel like maybe I'm not Peating right...
It's no big deal. :)
With Peat's emphasis on the thyroid we typically avoid having raw cruciferous vegetables on a regular basis. It's not like you are eating pounds of raw kale. If you are concerned about missing nutrition from not eating many vegetables you could make a greens broth. I'll try to find some links for you.
I'm glad your journaling here about your experience. As long as it feels right for you I think it is valuable and could potentially help someone else.
The reason I don't have much input is because I'm recovered from a restrictive eating disorder so I'm in no position to talk about dieting and weight loss.
I wouldn't worry about feeling like you don't have a lot to contribute. We have lots of different people that post here. Many contribute mostly scientific type information others more knowledge from personal experience and some a combination of both. So whatever way you feel like sharing is appreciated.
Oranges I juice myself in season have none of that acid sharp bite. Zero. So i don't think it's supposed to be that way. Maybe a fruit juice without that acidity, like apple if you can find a good one and the pectin is OK for you?this citric acid issue is preventing me from being able to consume sufficient OJ and limits the amount of fruit that I can comfortably eat.
Sigh. Brings back some bad old low carb memories ...I used to hate that stupid carb flu bs on LCHF diets. It's not carb detox, it's your body telling you that it needs some freaking energy, carbs, sugar. If you eat or drink carbs or sugar while having a bout of that crap, you'll feel better within a few minutes.

Do you think it's the LF in HCLF that's lowering your appetite?
How's nanowrimo going? For me- just an incentive to finish the book by the end of Nov. Not going to be 40k words! Maybe 20. That would be good.
