Day 1

It's January 7, 2017 and it's day one of my very first juice fast. It's a Saturday and after much research and learning how crappy I'm going to feel, I decide to start on a weekend when we had a big snow and I could lay around the entire weekend if I needed to. I have read sooooooo much information and talked to friends that juice so I feel semi prepared for just how hard this is going to be. I'm using a breville juicer and used it for the first time today. I sort of made my own recipe and just went for it: A whole pineapple An entire bag of kale 2 celery stalks A large cucumber A medium geeen apple This yielded about 40 oz of juice The pineapple made it super tart and I have bad acid reflux and it burns a little. Hindsight made just half a pineapple next time. I was shocked at how little juice I got from the kale. The pineapple and the cucumber yielded the most liquid. So, I'm 16 oz in to my juice fast. My goal will be 5 16oz juice servings a day plus water. I can't wait to blog my updates. Stay tuned
