This will probably be the last post I do about this fast, besides an update on what weight comes back. Just wanted to share how my day went. In the morning I had a couple of cups of coffee (I think it’s funny that I never did quit and everyone says you should) and then [...]

Just how much
Did I lose on the fast? I was 151.2 the day I started, and today I weighed in at 142.8. That is a loss of 8.4 pounds in 7 days! Now some of it is probably water weight and will come back on, but hopefully that is just 3 or 4 pounds. We’ll see. I [...]

7 days are up!
Technically my juice fast is not over until tonight at about 9 pm, but I did it!! Today was the most productive day I’ve had at home this week by far. I managed to clean up the kitchen and do the floors in the bathrooms and the kitchen. I did laundry, ground flour, went shopping, [...]

This may be extremely boring. How I’m going to eat and still fast.
I have been trying to figure out what my new direction will be as far as what to eat after the juice fast. With the coming week, I am just going to take it slow and listen to what my body tells me it needs. I think I am over-thinking the breaking the fast thing. [...]

Less juice please
Today was very different. I woke up annoyed because of the day I had yesterday I decided since I wasn’t working out that I’d drink coffee. I really enjoyed my 2 cups! I more often than not only drink 1, and 2 usually makes me feel crazy wired. I did get extra wired but didn’t [...]

Not Smart
Well I think I have proved that I can’t run and fast. After I posted this morning I was SO exhausted. And I think I was dehydrated too. I got a massive headache, had no energy or drive, and going through the motions at work took everything that was left (which wasn’t much!) out of [...]

5 Shitty Miles
I did my run and it thoroughly sucked! I am on Day 5 of this juice fast and the way I feel about it today is – over it! I am not going to quit, but I am not enthused about it AT ALL right now Maybe it is just the tiredness talking, but this [...]

3 Miles on Juice
Wow, so I have mixed feelings about my run today. I had my coffee issues so I was feeling a bit crazy, but went anyway. The first mile was a little tough but after that it got a lot better. I didn’t pass out, that’s always good! Just kidding, that was never really an issue, [...]

Well, coffee is out
I love coffee. The smell, the taste of it black, even just the act of sitting and enjoying my hot cup. It is the perfect start to my day. Not while I’m doing the juice thing though. My stomach couldn’t get more empty than it is right now. And this morning’s cup of coffee just [...]

Third Day and Not Quitting
When I had decided to do the juice fast I started looking at videos and blogs and such about/by people who were doing fasts. There are a lot of them out there, and some are pretty inspiring. But a lot of them just seem to drop off the face of the earth during or after [...]
