Whig's Juice Fast, Day 5

The Numbers:
-Total Weight Loss: 20 lbs
-Sleep: Between 7 & 8 hours last night!
-More energy: Felt almost "jittery" all day.

Interesting day. Every expert says there will be a point early on where the toxins start leaving your body, any way they can. My nose has been running non-stop for the past 12 hours, and I've noticed some acne (which I read many people experience.)

Had a breakfast meeting at one of the all-time great places for breakfast: The Cracker Barrel. But it wasn't tough at all! In fact, I really enjoyed a tomato juice while the others enjoyed their omelettes, grits and such. Although, they did leave a huge pile of biscuits and gravy in the middle of the table!

The support I'm getting from everyone is VERY helpful, and I hope my two-week goal can be met!

I've been asked for juice recipes, so here's one of my faves so far:

-2 peaches
-1 apple (been using green apples...I like the "tart")
-a handful of strawberries

The peaches make a very thick juice, so it's almost like a shake! The apples helps to "water" it down a bit. And the strawberries add a taste and color you can't beat!

Don't forget to scrub all of your fruits and vegetables before juicing!
