Today is the last day of my juice fast. Why? Because my body said so. It would not accept another sweet juice no matter what color I served it.
I enjoyed a lovely salad of fresh greens from the garden, broccoli, cauliflower and zucchini topped with a few kidney beans and salsa. A side of corn on the cob and 2 little pieces of celery topped with peanut butter and my tummy is way more than full.
Now I know what I can do with juicing. I'm glad for the results, but I don't think they are so impressive that it warrants a complete fast from all eating.
I'm going to go spend some more time organizing my Eat to Live recipe book and give my menu plan a look over for which recipes I want to play with the rest of this week.
David is still deciding what he wants to do with his fast. I know his day 15 is coming up this weekend. He's talked a little about taking a week break by allowing some kind of foods and then picking it up again when his friend starts his fast the next week.
However it works out, I want to be armed and ready with delicious, nutritious foods that will satisfy my guy after a long, hard fast. :)
Got in a 30+ minute workout on Wii Fit with my weights. I'm getting better at those yoga poses and strength exercises.
Nothing like chewing your food, huh? Good job to you for doing it some more and great job to David for continuing on! I can BARELY make it through 8pm-10pm without eating something...can't imagine going 15 days! Thanks for the inspiration!! :)
