10 day juice fast: day 4
9:55 PManother great day. it sounds crazy but i'm almost wishing i get some detox symptoms soon! where's all that junk being stored??? i want it OUT. anyways - i am noticing i don't need as much sleep. i can't fall asleep before around 3 AM, yet i'm up and active by 11 AM. usually i need like 12 hours of sleep to function because, well...
i'm secretly a hibernating bear hybridized with a lazy cat.

so today i woke up at 11 and was PLANNING on doing some things around my room and the house before going to downtown to enjoy the city, buy some juice/groceries, give out sandwiches to the hungry, and end up staying over at my friend's house. my plan did not work out. my best friend (who moved to halifax a few years ago) called so we talked for 2 hours. then it started raining really hard which i LOVE - but not for walking around downtown. therefore i am staying in tonight and watching a movie with the family.
my first juice of the day was made of:
3 carrots
huge handful kale
1 kiwi
2 slices pineapple
handful of basil leaves
chunk of ginger
1 orange
1 apple
3 bell peppers
YUUUUUUM. that is all.
it was saturday so that means farmers market! but my mother doesn't like to wake me and she left when i was sleeping. i'll go next week. she bought cherries, carrots, strawberries, and a few other wonderful, organic plants. i REALLY need to buy some cukes, tomatoes, celery and bell peppers though. i'm all out.
look at the pretty layers from when i took off the lid of my juicer :)
my dinner juice was made of:
1 grapfruit
1 orange
1 kiwi
1 huge handful kale
1/2 lemon
chunk of ginger
5 carrots
2 slices pinapple
handful of strawberries - OMG this makes it
today i wanted to connect with the juicing world via the internet (otherwise i'm on my own for this fast) and i happened across "linda's blog". i like the way she explains why she juice fasts:
