juice fast - the big one - part two

posts are every two or three days from now on. there wasn't really that much to say.

day 11 got weighed. still a bit bloated from period so not sure how accurate it is, but lost another 3 pounds. that's a total of 8 pounds so far, which is a little disappointing, it has to be said

day 14 tiredness mostly gone, back to normal weekday tired. no extra energy as yet. occasional hunger pangs but mostly craving for egg mayo and salad on granary! got weighed today but only lost 1lb since saturday. very disappointed

day 15 got oxypowder in the post but will wait till friday to use it so am near the loo! tongue icky again plus have some big spots on back of neck - luckily they're above the hairline. have noticed in general my skin is feeling smoother. face is still quite dry

day 20 ent appt meant i spent most of the day at the hospital, which rather messed up my schedule so when i got home had a mug of bouillon. it's comforting and tasty, really quick and no juicer to clean afterwards, plus i get some oil for my poor dry face

day 21 headachey all day, was worried i'd get a migraine but it cleared in the evening. various aches and pains, little bit tired. trying hard not to wimp out and have bouillon for dinner. had veg juice for dinner. weight loss now 1 stone and that's over 2 stone total since i went raw - only another 2.5 stone to go...

day 23 well, i'm still waiting to feel the energy & find god (jk) but i have got one breakthrough to report - i finally got the whites of my eyes being whiter and the blue bluer. it's not so much that they're bluer rather that they're clearer. if you check out shazzie's before and after snaps (scroll down to august 2001) i'm sure you'll agree that the eye colour in the after pic looks like someone's been playing with photoshop. nevertheless, clearer eyes and smoother skin are big plusses in my book

day 27 lost 2 pounds in 2 days just by increasing my greens - as revolting as they are, i'm going to have to go green these last few days. although i was hoping to get the 'high' i don't think i want to keep going much longer. i'm bored of juices, bored of washing the juicer and it's time to get to the gym and exercise my flabby belly into submission but i really don't have the stamina at the moment


i do think i've achieved a great deal so far but there's still a long way to go and i think exercise is a big part of that - to lose more weight and get more healthy.
