go on a juice fast.

this was an interesting experience, but did not go exactly as i had envisioned. i saw myself reading and writing a lot—taking a break from dealing with mundane things. however, i ended up spending a lot more time than i would have thought preparing juice and cleaning up afterwards, as well as exercising, cleaning house, and paying bills. i suppose i also thought that i would feel markedly different and that wasn’t really the case, possibly since i already had a cold. still, i am glad that i went through with this, and i believe it has benefited both my health and my willpower.

I have tried a couple juice days in isolation, but this weekend I am planning to spend 3 days drinking water & juice. I will also knit a bunch and possibly read the bible at the same time as I read Asimov on the bible. Sounds like a fun combination, right? Right.

bought a juicer!!!

fasting will ensue once i have figured it out and found time for an experimental 3-day juice-only program.

I have been reading lots and lots of material online about juice fasting and additionally which juicer I should go for. It will take some saving and lots more reading but I hope to be ready to start my juice fast before the fall!

I’ve found curezone.com useful as well as this pdf someone here linked to: http://www.theherbalist.com/PDFs/cleansing.pdf

I think I will try for a 5-day program with a wide variety of vegetable juices. Can’t wait!
