OK....I have finished my 3 day juice fast, and I am very pleased. I never thought I could go 3 whole days without eating food...but drinking the sugar cane juice worked for me. Physically, I was never hungry....lots of energy the entire time. Of course when you enjoy eating as much as I do, no food for 3 days is a sacrifice....but its a psychological thing..I think. The only problem I had was a slight headache on the afternoon of the third day....and I think that was because I didnt drink as much water as I should have. When I started feeling the headache come on, I started drinking water, and it went away. This morning, I squeezed about 10 ounces of fresh orange juice...they say this is how you restart your digestive system. I drank the juice, couple of cups of coffee, a few raw pecans, and a boiled egg....I am a happy man.. I didnt weigh before I started the fast...and havent weighed this morning, so I dont know how much weight I lost.....but I feel very light, and my stomach has gone down a good bit. If I had to guess, I would say around 10 pounds in 4 days. I normally lose about 7 or 8 pounds after hard dieting the first week of a diet....I think I did a little better than that, in about half the time...with less difficulty for me. So...a very reasonable menu for today...fruits, nuts, salad, maybe some boiled or baked chicken.....looking forward to it. Will try to eat sensibly and start the 1 day juice fast every week...next Wed.
