The Juice Chronicles – Day 5 of 90

juice feastDay five and I’m quite tired with a headache that’s been there since this morning. I’ve had far too little sleep and too many days without any colon cleansing. Not recommended. I’ve had some cravings start to come up as well. Tonight I did some dry brushing and took a long hot bath with Aromatherapy Dead Sea Mineral Bath Salts while I drank my green pear juice and I’m looking forward to an early bedtime!

On the upside I feel like my body has started to lean out a little which is surprising. I’ve never lost weight on a fast (even up to ten days) so I didn’t really have any expectations in that regard. I have to say, it’s nice to see a little more of the muscle tone I’ve been working so hard for!

I should add that I’m drinking plenty of water although I don’t add it to my days juices.

Today:

32 oz Get Happy tea with vanilla stevia

32 oz carrot/apple juice

34 oz orange/cucumber juice with sun chlorella

32 oz celery/romaine/carrot/tomato/lime juice

2 Tbsp bee pollen

28 oz cucumber/romaine/pear juice with vanilla stevia and cinnamon

2 Tbsp bee pollen

    I’ve always wondered about bee pollen.. What are the benefits? Why did you start taking it? Thanks!

    • You know what’s funny, I’m not even sure! I bought it a while back because I’m sure someone told ME what the benefits were- now I’m just using it because it’s hearty, tasty and allowed on a juice feast ;) I’ll find a better answer to that question!

    I’ve been following your juice journey and love reading up on it everyday seeing how its working out :) I’m curious, do you know how much money you have been spending everyday for the juice feast? Also, do you have any idea how many appox. calories you drink each day?

    • Oh my goodness, I’ve been working on the money thing- I’m unfortunately not buying much organic anymore because of the cost and trying to find the cheapest places possible. I’ll try and figure out a daily cost soon! I did count calories the first few days and was averaging around 1800. I’ll try and keep track of that a little more too so I can say for sure. Thanks for asking!
