Blog: first time juice fast
so yesterday I started on my journey on my baby sized 5 day juice fast. I felt like I could have said that I was going on a ten or 15 day fast and then failed on day 5 and felt disappointed in myself. . or I could just set a realistic goal and hopefully succeed.
I ate my last meal on sunday night and woke up monday morning both nervous and excited. I drank 3 juices, one for each meal, and drank MC lemonade in between. my juices were mainly vegetables and not so bad if I do say so myself. especially because I was winging most of the recipes. I went out to dinner for my friends birthday which was difficult, but I found that after I told all of them what I was doing, they wouldn't have let me eat anything anyways so the support was great. . and also the butt of a lot of jokes, haha.
I found that already I was thinking about the fast all the time, and that gets pretty annoying after a while. I drank a small cup of organic chicken broth before bed. I know its probably not part of the rules, but it helped immensely with the mental cravings, and I made sure it was organic. I think that by having the broth it makes it much easier and therefore much more likely to stick with it.
I went to bed feeling hungary but not really tired. its like I always have this antsy feeling. anyways hopefully I make it to day to
starting weight: 164.5
mornign of day 2 : 163.5
one pound lost whooo hoooo!!!

Hang in there LexiLou. The 1st 3 days are the most challenging. Then the hungry will go way down.
Might read my blog and get some tips. I'm on day 7 now.
Nice 1st paragraph. Ha, i did the opposite, psyched myself by saying possibly may do a 30 day one, and if i go 20-23 i'll be happy.
Be sure to watch Angela's youtube i have listed. It'll really inspire you!
Anyway, hang in there and go for it! You get better each time you do a juice feast. It's like working a muscle, the more you practice and try it, the better you get.
Cheers! (both raise glass of juice, click them and drink)
