Extreme Juicing

My Juicing Fast:

About 18 months ago, I lived with a family in North Carolina who juiced all the time.  I noticed they were much more energetic and they hardly ever got sick.  I would juice from time to time, but I was not as dedicated.  I would maybe juice one day a week, so I did feel a little bit healthier, but I did not notice a huge difference.  I ended up watching a documentary a while back called, Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead (If you ever want to feel motivated to juice, watch this video).

Even though, I still consider myself to be healthy, it does make sense that the body needs to be cleansed every now and then.  So this is my progress so far: I am on day 4 of my juice fast.  I am feeling healthy and energetic (a little hungry) and I have lost 4 pounds so far.  My goal is to juice for at least 11 more days....hmmm...this might get tough!


On a more interesting note:
I would like to put a disclaimer stating that I am not one of those girls who watches the show and becomes so attached to the characters or, even worse, the bachelor.  I enjoy watching the show to reassure myself how wonderful my life is: 

I am not on a show publicly humiliating myself.  If I do anything embarrassing, normally it is only infront of my husband and he has to take me at my worst (poor Josh).  I am not airing out my baggage on national TV.  I am not a desperate girl who will date a guy who is currently dating 15 other women.  I am not hysterically crying to the whole world that I am in love with a guy (who in my opinion is very boring) after only 4-5 weeks....  

My life is wonderful and simple!  Just the way I like it!
