40 DAYS of JUICING

 Saturday, March 8, 2014

Today, I decided to go forth with my idea of pursuing a forty day juice fast. I woke up this morning and consciously made the decision to put to use the $ 37.00 personal juicer I purchased from Wal-Mart Thursday. I picked up various fruits and vegetables the same day such as pineapple,  oranges, lemons, limes, celery, avocado, kale, and spinach to name a few.

I would say the worst part of the juicing process is the preparation of the fruits and vegetables. Of course, you would want to wash the items firstly, but there's a lot of cutting and chopping involved and this is where most of the prep time is spent.

I mentioned to my friend that I felt a tremendous bit more energized after drinking the juice. I do not feel as though I have an "empty" stomach , at all.

I don't see where I'll have much of a challenge in sticking to the fast, because I actually enjoy the taste of the recipes I've found online and tried out, such as a blend that includes celery, oranges, limes, and apples.

I will do my best in continuing the blog on a daily, in order to provide some sort of guidepost in where I have progressed in the fast.
