Day 1: Getting started!
30 day juice fast!
Date: 5/13/2005 1:06:09 PM ( 19 y ) ... viewed 2440 times I slept in this morning so it wasn't the best start to the day, however I still decided to go ahead with my fast. I weighed in at 174 lbs (3 lbs heavier than yesterday but my weight does tend to fluctuate quite wildy so i wasn't too worried), another possible contra-indication to my fast maybe, but I wasn't deterred. It's nearly 7pm in the evening and I've just finished my 2 litres of water off, I have felt hungry during the day but not totally ravenous which has been a blessing.
This is my 2nd fast, I fasted about 2 months ago on juice for 14 days losing 15 lbs. Although it was a juice fast I completed the first day on just water as I wanted to experience no food and then I figured being able to drink juice would be a bonus somehow. I decided to do the same thing with this fast, hence no food today. I'm looking forward to my juice tomorrow and am hoping that i'll not cave in tonight regarding temptation.
It has helped me today as I've had a bible study with a nice couple who visit my home regularly, I have been kept busy and when I felt the urge to give in to temptation (this happened twice), I prayed for the strength to overcome and it came. I'm filling a plastic,litre bottle with filtered tap water twice a day to ensure that I drink at least 2 litres of water daily. I'm hoping to do a salt water flush at some point over the week-end also, although I've never done one before and not 100% sure exactly what it entails (will have to check it out on the net). Regarding energy levels I've not felt too bad today, I've not had a particularly tiring day so not really been drained. I have however had a slight headache which is to be expected I guess, nothing major though.
I intend to fill in my blog on an evening so please keep checking it out and if anyone has any feedback it'd be much appreciated. I'll keep you posted :o)
