Juice Fast, Day 1


So, I've been Paleo/Primal for a while, since last April. Then December came and the holidays threw our regimes out of the door. I have been back to being pseudo-primal for a week or two but have just been feeling like total shit. So, today I have started a juice fast, in the hopes that it will help me get this general feeling of crap out of my muscles.

Normally I wouldn't blog about it, but I thought that I might this time, just so that I can keep track of how I'm feeling and what combinations of fuits and veggies I prefer.

This morning's juice isn't so bad.

5 carrots
4 celery stalks
1 mini cucumber
1 large handful of spinach
1/4 apple
1 cup of water (to get my Vitamix going)

I had to strain it through a nutmilk bag because the consistency was making me gag, but strained it isn't awful. I'll probably acquire a taste for it before long. (At least, that's what I tell myself! LOL!)

Day 1 begun.
