And so it begins.....Day 1 of Juice Fast

So the last "fast" I did a few weeks ago did not go well. I think I had a bug hiding somewhere in my body and doing the fast just brought it out with a vengeance. So I had to stop. I was miserable and missed 3 days of work. Then our little one got sick and missed school. That was a rough week. I still chose to juice almost everyday in the morning b/c I knew I would restart the fast again eventually and wanted to already be accustomed to the juice. 

So today is going to be the first day of my restart. My weight right now is 154. I'm hoping that like in the movie Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead I can get rid of this weird itchiness that I seem to get no matter where I live or what the weather is like. Speaking of Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead, Anthony and I finally watched the whole thing last night and thats when we decided to restart the fast today. It's a good thing we stocked up on fruits and veggies on our last grocery shopping trip! I'm also hoping that next week when we order a basket from our local co op they'll be lots of new stuff to try. 

Started out today with the juice below

1 orange
1/2 apple
3 romaine leaves 
4 stacks of spinach (sandwiched between the romaine leaves) 
4 carrots 
1/4 of a lemon

I think its good. It's not anything out of the ordinary that I had been juicing previously. 

So hopefully we'll be more successful in this next fast. Our goal would ideally be 60 days so we'll see. I know that getting past the first week will probably be the hardest. 

Maybe as the fast progresses I'll put up some comparison pics if I can even bring myself to take them right now lol!

Well here goes nothing!!!

Thanks to whoever ends up reading this!
