On to today's post....


Nervous
Anxious
Determined…
Ready

Those are the words used to describe how I felt this morning before my juice fast began.

What the heck is a juice fast????
I have wanted to switch to a plant based diet for sometime.....now is the time.  Check out the documentary, Hungry for Change.  Amazing.  Back to juice fasting watch Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead with Joe Cross. You can watch it free on Hulu!  You will understand Juice Fasting.  I am juicing so that I can detox and begin my new way of eating.

Captains Log...StarDate 1
I am using a Jack Lemanne Juicer at home and a Nutribullet at the office.
Say hello to my breakfast:

Review:  This was pretty good.  

Meal 2: Mean Green Juice


Not sooo bad but I totally could tell the difference without the fruit...missing the evil sweetness I have come to love.

Meal 3:  Citrus Inspired Green Juice
Ok this was the toughest.  I left the peel on all but one...TOO MUCH.  I feel like I want to Karate chop someone.  Bubble Bubble Toil in Trouble....I can hear my stomach on the outside of my body.  I want the air to Shut UP!!!  Mental right well that's about how I feel I am mad at everything!  I feel really grouchy and terrible..angry..for no reason.  Where is my tea!!!!!  Darnit.  The meal plan says have herbal tea ...I long for this because its familiar.  I don't like fruity herbal teas they taste like cough syrup.  I like English Breafast Tea, and Earl Gray....my Fave.   Guess what????  After juicing all day that Pomegranate tea taste like STEAK....LOL...I am happy...partially still mad but rejoicing...oh tea I love u so even if its fruity.  Well I am going to bed before I extend my wrath on mankind and my dog.  

Day 2 is on the rise.

Love, 
Feeling like Crap at moment.  

P.S. Not giving up just surrendering for the night.

  1. yep,...peel them citrus unless you can leave it sit overnite...it makes a huge difference in the flavor. Leaving it sit mellows it something amazing. I know it is best to drink immediately, but when I know I cannot make a drink the next day I will store them in the fridge. The flavor is improved. You will get used to the Mean Green drink very quickly...the taste is actually good once you get used to it. Be sure to use the peeled lemon and ginger to cut the green. Also, you might try using spinach or a head of romaine instead...mix in an increasing amount of kale as you get used to it. best of luck to you!
