Day 1 all over again! Wait! What? Day one?! Shouldn't this bitch be done with this juice already!? As it has been awhile since I've had the time to post, let's recap! The doc told me I had to stop at Day 45, so I did. Since then, I have been eating really well, and working out, but, I haven't felt all that great. My juice intake has gotten lower and lower, and I'm starting to see bad stuff happening. My skin is breaking out again, and I am finding myself lethargic again. I don't have as much energy and my old food habits are creeping back up.
I've decided that I really don't care what the doctor says at this point...this is MY journey after all!!! So, here we are again at Day 1! I am going for a strong 30 days. I've realized that 60 might have been a bit of a crazy idea to start with! 30 is definitely attainable. I am cutting fruit down quite a bit, and upping veggies. I'm going with 75%-25%! I find that I am incredibly more excited than the first time I started. I know what to expect this time and I am prepared for this juicy challenge! Along side of the juice, I will be taking a raw vegan protein supplement so that I am not losing too much of this vital nutrient! I will be supplementing 34g of protein from the powder that will be added to the about 30g that I am getting from my juice. I am going to continue my workouts, though I know I will have to bring down the intensity a bit.
My excitement has become contagious. A good work friend, Josh, has decided to try his hand at fasting! He is going on a 7 day water fast starting Monday. I have given him my knowledge and he is researching on his own, which is really smart. For the next few days, as he is prepping for this crazy challenge, I am juicing his meals for him. I hope he enjoys my recipes! I wish him all the best, and I will support my friend during his journey, as he continues to support me!
Alright! I promise I will post at least 3 times a week during this journey. Not only will I post about my juice, but, I will also add in some great workouts to do while juicing...for anyone that cares! Happy Juicing!
