Husky Boy here. Day 1 has been pretty interesting. I kept to my prior post regarding the meal plan, and so far I haven't really felt hungry. What I do feel, well, there's a couple of things. I'm having moments of fatigue or tiredness. I feel alert one minute, but then ebb into a sleepy state. The second thing I feel is a headache that's been coming and going through the afternoon.
The first couple days of a juicing fast / diet are known to be tough. You're dramatically decreasing your caloric intake and you're body is being forced to actually start burning fats or convert the protein in the raw foods. The headache may be a lack of water, but it's more likely caffeine withdrawal. I shouldn't be surprised after two Monster drinks a day for I don't know how long... 4 years?
So, returned home about 2 PM and made another juice. A little onion, a radish, some spinach, two carrots, three sticks of celery, and an apple, which all came in at about 16 oz. Spicy and with a little kick, it was pretty good!
Finally, I had a couple solids today. I had two bananas, and an orange. These were in my pack when I couldn't reach a juicer.
So far, success! Current weight: 231lbs. Weight this morning: 235. I flux quite a bit in weight during the day though, as I work outside in the Texas heat and lose water.
Wonder what we should make for dinner.
