Day One!
Bring on the Juice!
Date: 3/31/2006 9:38:08 PM ( 17 y ) ... viewed 1691 times Here we go! I have just started my second juice fast. My first one lasted for a total of sevens days. I wanted to go longer but it was a battle between eating dinner on my birthday or sticking to the juice. As you probably figured out, the birthday dinner won out. Oh by the way, it is really painful, no extremely painful if you try eating before your stomach is ready to start digesting. Take some advice to heart, take it easy!!!
The reason for me doing this juice fast is because I started having an eating disorder. Binge eating became a way of life and food was my best friend (although I think it really was my enemy looking very good). Currently I am 23, 5'7 and weighing 235lbs. I have always been up and down with my weight. Recently it has been harder than ever to lose a single pound. I drive everyone crazy with the fact that each week is a new diet. Plus I am the fast food, pizza loving, nachos queen. Ohhh, I said it! there you go!
Juicing in the beginning peaked my curiosity as a way to lose weight. As I began to read more i was more intrigued by how the body detoxes and the effects. So before my first fast i prepared myself for the worse. I had headaches, extreme tiredness, and bad breath that could kill! Plus my dreams became very vivid. I would have passed up on the dreams of candy and food. But still I dont think my symptoms were as bad as some people that i have read about. I lost 14 lbs but gained it back very quickly. Those nachos were good
So, I am here again to start for the second time. Day number one! I hope to pay more attention to my body and what is going on. Today I have had a bad headache. Its most likely from caffeine withdrawls. I drank one too many sodas yesterday. Plus I wish I could go to bed right now. I have to get through work first. And i see a slight change in my tongue.
This time I hope to juice for atleast 30 days. And then when i go off, trust me it will be very slowly. Pizza isnt always the answer!
Oh by the way, there is one thing I noticed. I have had arthritis since i was 16 years old due to issues with my knees. You can hear it as i sit down if you are paying attention. After juicing, i swear that it has gone down, left or whatever you want to say. I am still very amazed.
Tomorrow is a new day. Day two... here I come!
