Juice Fast A.K.A System Detoxification- Day One
10:58 AM- I am now at 13 hours without any tangible food. I've made several juices on the Jack LeLane signature juicer mom bought a few days ago. Right now, the concoctions are purely experimental. The goal of this exercise is weight loss, but also a detoxification of the body. Other people call it a "cleanse" which is what it is. But I prefer to call it detoxing. I'd rather sound like a recovering drug addict than an elderly woman who learned something fascinating by watching Oprah. Usually my daily diet consists of tons of meat (Which I love) carbs, water, milk, soda and maybe one vegetable or fruit. Much of what I eat is heavily processed, and allegedly has toxins. This is a chance to do a "reboot" of my system. Inspiration came in the from of a movie I saw. I haven't fasted before, so this will be an interesting experience. Apparently this is going to make me really sick for a couple of days. I sure hope not. I have plans. Right now, I am just trying to ease into the experience and make it as pleasant as possible for me. The good thing about this is I'm not doing it alone. My mother and her friend are doing it as well. Being without meat for several days will be really tough. Meat always makes me feel better. It will be pure misery. Hopefully it will be worth it.
