How's everyone doing?

Hi everyone. I hope you all are still going. For those of you who didn't make it this far, its not too late to start again.

My hubby (of 16 years) surprised me with reservations for dinner (candlelit, very expensive restaurant) for our anniversary (a month late - it took a few tries to arrange with daycare and our opposite schedules.) I hadn't told him I had actually started my fast, so I felt too guilty to say no; especially since we RARELY eat out. So I just had juice until our 7:30 dinner. I was surprised at how little I could eat. Just had 3 spears of asparagus, a few bites of mashed sweet potatoes, and a few bites of salmon. I also had a small glass of champagne (I only drink once per year, for our anniversary) as the management sent over a full bottle. Even turned down the complimentary dessert. I refused to take home the rest of the food, as I don't want anything around tempting me.

I still managed to lose 1 pound in the almost 2 days. But today I have eaten light food again. Tonight on the way home, I stocked up again on fruits and vegees, and have told my entire family that tomorrow a.m. I am back to fasting. I'm calling it a juice fast, although sometimes I'll be using the Master-Cleanse lemonade as my juice. So tomorrow is Day 1 again (3rd time's a charm, right?). I just finished my fresh tomato "soup" made in my Vitamix, and now I'm ready to begin cleansing my body and my attitude toward food! Tweet
