Blog: Juice/Water FASTING Daily Progress Log- NEW March 2009
Weight- 135.2
Not much in the sign of weight loss today but that doesn't phase me. I've done this enough times to know I have a few "stalls" or plateaus or whatever you want to call it. If I stick with the plan, though, it always pays off. Have gone down a pant size so far so that's good and I feel much better now too. I'm almost at day 9 which is where I stopped the last fast I did about 3 or 4 weeks ago and really wasn't ready. This fast has been so much easier this time- I guess my mind just has to be right because it is about 90+% mental, you know? Definitely mind over matter with me at least.
Drank 74oz of water today and a cup of juice. Truthfully I really don't even know why I'm bothering with the tiny amount of juice I'm drinking daily. I just do it because a water only fast seems so harsh but this has been very similar to that. Had ample amounts of energy today- it gets worse in the evening when I'm home from work, I start to feel like I'm dragging a little. It's not even hard anymore making everyone dinner (I won't tell you what kind in case it would make you hungry). I do smell it and think, wow that smells good, but that's as far as I'll let it go. Remember- it's all a mind game! Hope you all had a great, easy day and tomorrow is even better!

Hi Lisa!
It's so nice to put a name with a.. text :P:P
I'm Sandy, pleased to meet you :) I might try the thing from Wal-Mart to see how well that will flush me out haha it sounds hardcore. You are absolutely right, it's all about your mentality. I've done many fasts but I've attempted many more. It all depends how focused you are on the benefits and outcome. Oh and btw, all of my juice fasts end up partial water fasts, because I just never want juice. I think it's got to do with the thought of cleaning the juicer, too. hahah I hope you had a great day!!

Sandy!
It's really great to meet you! I hope you had a great day today; I'm kinda dragging this evening again. Do try the Magnesium Citrate and see how you do. Have you ever taken spirulina and chlorella? Mine will be here tomorrow and it's a good thing because I need the protein. Again today I had mostly water, only 3 drinks of juice. I'm really juiced out but I'm so in the zone right now! I've been collecting raw food recipes and am excited to start eating raw but I'm not nearly done fasting yet. This is day 4 for you right? I hope all is going well still with this fast. Good luck to us tomorrow! Great to learn your name and meet you! Will talk later. :)
