Day Three: Juice Diet
6:30am- Hmmmm, not as energized. I feel a little light headed but it isn’t anything to make me worried.
7:00am- Morning Juice didn’t do anything to lift my energy level. HOWEVER, I weighed myself this morning and WHOOHOO I lost 3.5 pounds since Sunday. I know, I know… water weight. But I don’t give to flipping figs. I’m excited. Last week (Pre-Juicing) I lost 3 pounds from my normal working out… so a total of 6.5 pounds in a little more than a week. I’m happy!
9:30am- Completed my work out! I was nervous but my trainer told me to take it easy and listen to my body. I was able to knock out 2 miles on the Elliptical (going between 2 and 8 resistances) and then we did some weight lifting for my arms and then a million different lunges and squats for my legs. Today was a success!! I actually have a bit more energy!
My trainer informed me that any weight I’m losing is water weight (already knew that!). She told me people who are overweight tend to lose a lot more weight faster because they have extra to spare. I’m pretty sure I’m going through that since I’m considered “Obese” but some dumb ass standard. But again, I’m happy. The only discouraging part is that I’m losing weight in places you can’t see. Hopefully it’s not my ass or chest… those are my prized possessions.
Noon- Lunch and feeling A-Okay!
3:00pm- I am FREEZING!!! One minute it was hot and humid, the next I am covered up in a jacket. I read about this happening but I guess I can’t complain because it’s better than being super-hot.
3:30pm- Juice TIME! Noms.
4:00pm- I think I’m experiencing the aches and stiffness people talk about. My right shoulder KILSS and I can hear things cracking when I move. Ouch…
5:30pm- Opps, I kinda sorta poked a bit of garlic hummus and ate it. It was just a taste! No chewing involved… and dear lord it was delicious.
6:40pm- Starving. I still have that dab of hummus in my mind and I think it triggered some hunger in me. I’m going to have my juice and hope the want goes away.
8pm- The night is going pretty well. I still feel a tad hungry but that’s my fault. I didn’t have an entire 16 ounces, but it’s whatever. Today was a success!
11:00pm- OMG, I feel so nauseas and drained. I went to sleep but my cell phone woke me up. It’s TERRIBLE!! AHhhh, I also feel very thirsty. This is very crappy… so much for a successful day. -_-
