Day 7! Still feeling great physically and still successfully combating cravings for my favorite foods. Yesterday was tough because I spent most of the day with Luc (my boyfriend) and I had to be present while he ate some of my favorite foods. For lunch he had broccoli cheddar soup from Panera and for a late night snack he had nachos with blue corn chips. Oh how I miss cheese! I am contemplating whether or not to renter solid food back into my diet tomorrow or not. 7 days was my initial goal and I have successfully completed it. I have greatly improved my quality of life and feel confident that I can maintain a healthy diet now. After today, I will have to restock my fridge if I decide to continue. Being that this is the first time I have ever fasted, I am not overweight, and I have achieved the benefits I was looking to obtain, it may be an appropriate time to stop.
Yesterday's 90 ounces consisted of:
6 scallions
2 yellow squash
2 green squash
2 cucumbers
9 celery ribs
10 grapes
10 grape tomatoes
10 baby carrots
7 blackberries
7 raspberries
1 handful of kale
1 orange
2 lemons
1 lime
4 asparagus stalks
7 beets
2 apples
1 pear
1 kiwi
2 pineapple chunks
1 peach
It tasted great to me! I will make a decision on whether or not to continue juice fasting later tonight or early tomorrow morning.
Congrats Kelly! Would love to hear how your transition back to food/normal eating goes!
