Day 1
day 1
Date: 9/13/2007 6:44:24 AM ( 17 y ) ... viewed 1611 times It's 7:30, and I'm just about 3 hours into my juice fast. My boy even got up to eat before sunrise, then went back to bed. I was kinda cranky this morning, probably cuz I took a nap yesterday and my body is screaming SLEEP at me. Well, it was, now I'm ok. Kinda got the sleep deprived headache going on, but it will go away. Just think, millions of people around the world are fasting today.
I had my first juice, a little less than 16oz. It was cantalope, apple, plum, and ginger. I'm sure it was good, but I wasn't paying that much attention to it while I was drinking it. Trying to get a lab report done. Its mostly done, still a few tweaks, but I needed a break. About an hour after that I had this delicious chocolate hazelnut (decaf) tea I found yesterday. It is Wonderful. Probably not the best thing to be drinking, but it'll be ok. Now I am sipping on some lovely veggie broth. Its a little bland, but in another day or so it will be perfect. I wound up using carrots, onions, garlic, cabbage, a green pepper, orange pepper, rosemary, sage, and a touch of cumin. Also added a little lime juice and cayenne pepper after the fact. I really wish I'd remembered celery and horseradish, but another time I suppose. I have another 16 oz bottled for lunch, plus 16oz of the MC drink (its really really good if you haven't tried it), a whole bunch of water, and I'll bring my coffee cup with me to heat up some tea on my break. I'm in classes from 9 - 4, with an hour break at 10. 12-4 is a lab, so I can get up and get a drink if I need to. Makes me a little paranoid, I don't want to contaminate my drink, or myself, but that is why you exit the lab and wash your hands I guess.
I want to make this blog as detailed as possible. Reading other people's blogs is what gave me the final push to do this. Its very exciting. I've told two of my friends about it, the rest I haven't. One works in a juice bar and is a very overall very health conscious vegan eatting girl, and she was very excited for me. Actually she was afraid I was going to try the MC for 30 days, and I told her nooo. I'm really not sure I could drink the same exact thing for 30 days straight. The other is just really supportive about everything.
Yesterday was my birthday, and I got lots of happy bday calls. =) It was very very nice. My dad sent me a sewing machine! I can't wait to get to play with it. Right now it is sitting in its box all forlorn. I love to sew, but don't have a sewing machine. Meaning I either get to sew by hand, which can be fun unless you're hemming something, or take it to the sewing labs at school. By the time I'm done with schooly stuff though I just want to go home, and it hasn't happened lately. So now I have my own, and I sew this skirt I've had the fabric for forever. Perhaps I'll get it set up tonight, and then I can check it out this weekend. Today and tomorrow are nice long days, probably Saturday too. Sunday is mine though. =)
That's about it so far.
