Day 7 of my 10 Day Juice Fast was a rough one for me. Like many areas of the country, there is a nasty cold going around and I woke up feeling horrible. Brad and I have been giving each other the same cold over and over again since the fall, so I knew that it wasn't because of my juicing...it was just my turn to be miserable. I decided to keep it simple today!
Breakfast:
1 pineapple, 1 lb carrots - this made a TON of juice and was actually a little too sweet for me. I had way too much to drink myself, so I knew that I would be using the leftovers for lunch
Lunch
leftover juice from breakfast, 1 romaine heart, 4 kale leaves
Dinner - I still was feeling yucky and had still had leftover juice from breakfast & lunch (I'm serious - I must have bought the World's Juiciest Pineapple!), so I just finished that off and laid down on the sofa with a box of tissues, a glass of water and the remote control.....and was asleep for the night by 7:30pm!
Day 7 thoughts: I don't know that anything was really different for me on Day 7. Had I not been juice fasting, I probably would have had no appetite anyway (due to being sick). I guess the best part of juicing while sick is that I got some vitamins and nutrients in me that I normally wouldn't have (typically when I am sick, I hole up on the sofa with a box of Wheat Thins). That is probably why I woke up this morning feeling absolutely fine!
I will be sharing with you my thoughts and what I drank during my my 10 Day Juice Fast and I hope that you find this info helpful!
