Day 2 Done

Went to the Gym yesterday and surprisingly it wasn’t to bad.  I thought not eating any solid food for 2 days would really make me week but it was definitely OK.  I wasn’t as strong or had as much endurance as when I normally take my supplements. But I don’t think I lost any strength or stamina.

Oh Well, 1 more day.

Day 1 in the bag

Day 1 of my 3 day Juice Fast is over….it wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be…The only time it was difficult was when I would see food on TV but then I would just take a swig of juice and it would go away.  It’s funny because most of the time its not being hungry but just wanting the sensation of chewing and eating something.  For example when I am juicing I really wanted to put the fruit in my mouth and eat it.  

Oh well, time to grind on.  Day 2 is off to a good start.  I think when times are less hectic I will do another fast down the road hopefully for like 10 days.

Starting a Juicing FAST today

So I watched this movie yesterday.  It’s about a man who has an autoimmune disease that causes severe allergic reactions at random moments due to an overactive histamine response by his body.  Be basically can get painful hives anywhere on his body at any time.  He has to take a steroid medication to keep it under control but this caused him to gain a lot of weight and had him taking up to 9 pills per day.

This combined with unhealthy eating cause him to become “FAT, SICK & NEARLY DEAD”.  So he decided to go on a super high nutrient juice diet for 60 days and ended up being able to go off of his medication and lose 91 pounds in just a few months.  

He also meets someone along his travels who has the same exact disease he does and he helps him to go on a juice fast.  And lets just say what happens to this man is nothing short of a miracle.

So today I am starting a 3 day reboot/Juice Fast.  I feel like it will be ok for me to attempt this because I have been juice and eating mostly organic for a while now but we will see how it goes.

So check out the movie on Netflix.  It’s really inspiring and informational.

French Vanilla vs. Vanilla

Did you know that the only difference between French Vanilla and Vanilla Ice cream is that French Vanilla uses an egg base which is what gives it that yellowish tint. However many ice cream makers simply use food dyes on regular vanilla ice cream and mark it as French Vanilla.
