Juice Fasting Day 23

Woke up around 5:30 am

7:00 am - Had avocado soup with vegetable broth

Elliptical for 40 minutes

9:00 am - Carrot and apple juice

3:00 pm - Spinach, cucumber, apple, lemon and ginger juice. I used a whole cucumber so it was full of water and I loved this combination.

Elliptical for 40 minutes and treadmill for 20 minutes. I sure can work out as lon gas I can watch cable TV.

Later in the evening, my friend and I pureed tons of boiled vegetables and made a soup. Cumin does wonder for flavor sans the salt.

Juice Fasting Day 22

Woke up - sat in sauna for 30 minutes. I sweat profusely now. I'm not sure why I sweat more now than a week ago.

Juiced watermelon for breakfast.

Juiced spinach, ginger, lemon, apple and cucumber for thermos.

Had 2 avocados pureed in vegetable broth for dinner.

I visited my parents tonight and brought my juicer along. They loved the fresh juices.

My parents said I lost a lot of weight. They hadn't seen me since mid-October.

What I noticed: I can breathe a whole lot better. I can always take a deep breath and fill my lungs with air.

Juice Fasting Day 19

What!! 19 days already! Wow.

Today I woke up at 5:00 am. I had a big glass of pineapple juice.

I juiced broccoli sprouts, sprouts, cucumber, apple, lemon, ginger and spinach for my 16 oz. thermos. This did not taste good but I had no time to make another.

Drank water and tea all day.

For dinner, I had 2 avocado soup seasoned with cumin, paprika, cayenne, basil, and warm water. If I didn't eat avocados, I would have no insulation from the cold outside.

Juice Fasting Day 18

Rainy and cold Monday

It was gloomy and I forgot to write for the day.

I brought my usual thermos - and had avocado soup.

At night, I sat in the infrared sauna and got another fat flush body wrap. I don't think there is much toxins left in me though...

After the sauna and body wrap, I was so unbelievably exhausted; I fell asleep at 8:30 pm.

Juice Fasting Day 17

Yesterday, I got a hair cut - short again and black. I feel like a emo punk rock fan.

Woke up at 6:00 am - Day light savings day.

7:00 am - Juiced watermelon. Super refreshing!!

8:00 am - Worked out on elliptical for 45 minutes.

Took epsom bath salt.

Friends came over so I juiced a variety of items. I had 2 or 3 glasses of fresh juice and one pureed avocado.

I am not going to add bouillon or broth to anything for the remaining 9 days. I am going hard core cold pressed juice for the last stretch of the fast.

2:00 pm - Blended one avocado with some hot water and ate it with pepper. Sounds disgusting, but it was good. Mixing it with hot water tastes far better than mixing it with spinach juice, coconut milk or carrot (as I did in those early fasting days)

Sat in jacuzzi for 30 minutes to sweat. Sauna was broken again.

5:00 pm - Juiced pineapple. I can juice pineapple with the rind on. Wow, it tasted like a pina colada. Pineapple juice is almost better than watermelon juice.




What I noticed: Frown lines on my face are less noticeable! Pretty incredible!!

Elliptical for 30 minutes in the morning.

Juiced watermelon for breakfast.

Juiced Japanese cucumber, celery, apple, lemon, parsley and ginger. Took juice in 16 oz thermos.

2:00 pm - Had bowl of avocado soup. Had bowl of yesterday's pureed vegetable soup diluted with low sodium broth.

8:00 pm - Had another bowl of yesterday's pureed vegetable soup.
