I slipped up. I managed to get halfway through day 5 and then...I took a wrong turn to the vending machine. UGH!! Day 5 has ALWAYS been the hardest for me. All my fasts, whether juice or MC have ended by day 5.
We won't even discuss what these last 2 days consisted of food wise! Just a nightmare. You'd think I'd eliminate some of these junk cravings by day 5 but they are still there. This is why I need to go longer, wayyyy longer.
Truthfully, the hunger wasn't even an issue. That lemonade seems to fill me up fine. It's those damn cravings! And seeing food everywhere. Note to self: no more browsing food blogs when fasting! Duh, who would torture themselves like that? Only me of course.
So here we go again. Day 1 all over. So discouraging after being able to say day 5, but hey, i"ll get there again.

Day 4
hooray for day 4!
I'm having temptations, especially from checking out so many amazing raw and vegan blogs (which I have just added to my page), but I just throw those naughty thoughts to the back of my head and sip on my lemonade.
Good thing I'm busy with all this school work, or this would be a hell of a lot tougher.
I wish I could post some cool pictures of what I'm consuming, but unfortunately it's a not so attractive lemonade. Oh well, I'll just give you a random picture for some visual attraction.
Oh how I wish I could eat you beautiful fruit!

Day 3 and still sick :(
I can't believe it's June already!
So it's only day 3 and it feels like it's been 2 weeks! This is really hard but I know I need to do it. I'm still trying to get over this cold, so it's not so much that I'm hungry, it's more of missing the feeling of chewing food. Doing this fast will hopefully help me enter a new phase of my life to become health conscious about my life and get my body back in shape.
I've been working out since the start of the fast. Although I'm sick right now, I feel that working up a sweat helps to release toxins. Hopefully I'll get over it soon.
I'm entering the last few weeks of school before I take a few months off for summer, and I think all the stress is what is keeping me sick. I have so much to do, can't wait for June 19th when I finish my last final. The next few days after that will be packing up the apartment and putting everything in storage for the summer. I'm going to have to move to a new place because I'll be going to school at a new campus for my final year.
All of July will be spent with my family in Canada, and after that I'm not sure if I'll stay with my bf in northern California for the remainder of the summer, or stay in Canada.
Ahhhhh there's just so much that needs to be done this month! We'll see what happens.
As for the rest of today, I'll be sipping lemonade at my desk doing homework.
