Yesterday went quite well as far as ease of fasting. I got cravings for food whenever I got a good whiff of something cooking. (Like the BBQ chicken I made for the rest of the fam). I drank 48 oz of juice which seems like a bit less than most people, but then I am a small person so it might be the right amount for me.
As far as detox symptoms, the muscles in my legs are KILLING ME. To the point where I got on the floor to stretch out my hamstrings several times yesterday and had to break out the heating pad in the middle of the night. At first I thought it was too soon to have that detox symptom, but then I realized I have been drinking plenty of juice since Thursday, so maybe I gave my system a jump start. Either way, all I have to say is OUCH! It hurts. But it helps to know that it is part of the process of ridding my body of toxic junk.
This morning I hopped on the scale and my weight was 110.6 Technically that is down nearly 3 pounds from yesterday. I have done many 24 hour fasts and I never drop that much that fast, so I am wondering if the scale was a little wonky this morning. Time will tell.
I am so happy to have 3 other girls on this journey with me. Makes it so much easier to be able to talk about what we are experiencing, juicing, etc.
Todays Weight: 110.6
