Juice DeTox: Day 10+2

Feelings and Thoughts

Today I woke up with a stomach ache from last night’s juice.  Weird.  Other than that, I’m just sleepy, as usual.

Resources and Tips

Tip of the day:

Don’t drink your juice too close to bed time.  I’ve found that since it’s liquid and doesn’t require much time to digest, it’s ready to “leave” sooner than you think.

Goals

• DeTox: Nothing new here.
• Lose body fat (a plus but not required): I’ve officially kept the 3 lbs off and have decreased my body fat by about 1.5%. I also lost 3/4″ off my waist.
• Start the new year more disciplined: Going good.
• Get over this constant fatigue: Still tired. Apparently it takes several weeks to recover from adrenal fatigue, which is a longer journey than a short detox.
• Learn good habits: Yea, they’re coming.
• Sleep 8.5 hours: I slept 8:40 hours last night and want to sleep mooooooore!

Supplementation

Supplementation is continuing for the next month to allow my thyroid, adrenal glands, liver and kidneys to recover.

1. 8 AM: Breakfast: juice

I didn’t make a juice last night because I was too tired from kicking the sh!t out of the gym, haha.  So today my juice is consisting of Naked’s Green Machine 100% Natural Smoothie.  It’s not the same as the vegetable juice, but I just didn’t have it in me to make the juice last night.  Tonight I’ll be making a large batch so that I can drink it over the weekend.

Exercise

I kicked the crap out of the elliptical last night. Burned 498 calories in 33 minutes!
