YEAH I MADE A WEEK!
Well I kind of made a week. Yesterday evening I got a little creative. I tried nut milk, and I juiced two cups of an amazing vegetable soup that Heidi made. I am sure that is why the tiny drop in weight yesterday, most of it is water weight because of the additional salt in the soup (broth).
I will juice today most of the day and break my fast tonight. I am looking forward to eating again, but I will say that this has been the easiest weight loss I have ever done. I think I may do this again fairly soon. I will definitely be juicing many meals over the next few weeks. I am thinking Juice through the day and eat sensibly with the family at night.
Reflections on the juice feast:
Pros:
Quick weight loss
Good energy - Still able to run and work out
Change in taste - The things that sound good to me have changed significantly from the time I started
Minimal investment - Produce is pretty expensive, but all told it was fairly cheap.
Cons:
Not eating with my family - I had no idea how much I would miss this. It was miserable to not eat with them.
Some juices will not be good - It takes a bit to figure out what tastes good. unless you are better than me, you will have several "failed" juices.
So far I can't find any other cons...I may think of some later, but for now I feel pretty good about it.
Would I do it for 60 days like Joe Cross? Perhaps, I am going to keep that option open. If I feel as horrible adding food back in over the next few days then I may go right back on. I want to see how much weight I add right off the bat. And how I feel. I am going to limit dairy and meat drastically for the next little bit and see how it continues with that.
