Juice Fast?

Sure.

I want to start off by saying, this is all John's fault idea. We watched a documentary the other day Fat, Sick and Almost Dead which got him us thinking about juice fasting. In the film, the purpose of the fast is for weight loss. But the guy is huge, and there's no way we would, or ever could, lose that kind of weight. What interested John us was the "detox" potential. Before I go on, I'd like to make it clear that every time I hear myself, or someone else for that matter, talk about "detoxing" I want to punch myself in the throat. However, I love a good poop. Who doesn't, really? And that's what got me on board. Because in my mind, detox=poop. Throat punch avoided.

So here we are. It's Friday and our juicer has arrived. We went in to town earlier and picked up as many organic fruits and vegetables as our little colons fridge could handle. We start tomorrow and fast on only freshly squeezed fruit and vegetable juice for 10 days. I'll keep you posted on my mood, energy level, weight loss, juice concoctions and if you're really lucky, bowels. I promise to keep the gross factor to a minimum  medium.

$200 worth of organic fruit and veg. Should last us until Monday...
