DAY 1


Let the juice feast begin! This morning I am nervous and wondering how to do this. I have been reading about it and realize that this is all new territory in many ways. I've eaten as a raw vegan, vegetarian, carnivore... I've tried every "diet" out there. I've spent my life eating to lose weight or being stressed because I'm gaining weight... always around "weight." This begins a new place for me.

I am a compulsive over-eater... a food addict. I have been working the 12 steps for about 3 1/2 years. I finally realize that no matter how I ea
t, I will ALWAYS have to rely on God to help me. This is the only way I will EVER be at peace with food.

I have been eating horribly the last few days and feeling it in my body. Th
is morning I woke up with gooey eyes, a stomach ache, and a runny nose; basically clogged up!!

My kids are just off to school and I am going to head to the store to buy my organic produce for the week. Wow! I'm excited and nervous. I wonder if I will be able to stand the greens, and how the fruit juices will affect me.

I've always been severely hypoglycemic. This will be very interesting!

Weight: 169 lbs. Height: 5' 5"

These are the greens I will be drinking today. 2 lbs, plus 1 head of celery! Wow!!








Here I am drinking my greens. Yummy... really, they weren't nearly as bad as I thought.

An hour later and my head feels funny and I've had to pee like crazy. I guess celery really is hydrating. :)
