The shot glass. The orange. And the grass.

     I had my first shot in over 6 years today... only this one didn't make me want to vomit. Wait, yes it did. Back up... This one didn't harm my liver. That's right folks. Watch while I bust out my Bucket List and mark off, 'Take a shot of wheat grass" cause I did! And it was NASTY! Not nearly as nasty as I thought it'd be but it was pretty grody.      This marks Day 2 of my juice fast. Up until about an hour ago it's been actually pretty manageable. I did have a slight moment of crazy as I was cleaning out my car yesterday. I came across an old chicken strip that had fallen between the seats. It took a lot of willpower to not pop it into my mouth. I even caught myself squeezing it to see if it was hard... Don't judge me...      Anyhoo! About an hour ago I got a random craving for nachos... and then it was over. I was hungry. I tried drinking more juice to balance the hunger and it did nothing but made me want to vomit. I'm up to my ears in juic

Sippin' on gin and Juice...

    Ok, not gin - just juice. And lots of it.     Sunday officially begins my 14 day juice fast. Yep, you read that right. I'm doing a juice fast and I'm not talking Capri Sun. We're talking real fruit and veggie juice. Freshly... juiced?      For the past two days I've been replacing random meals with juice to get my body used to its new reality... it's already an interesting experience. While the juice tastes AMAZING (which shocked me) I am soooooo tired. SO tired. Like.. I could pass out and sleep so good I drool... OK, so tired I'm drooling right now but that isn't the point here. The point is... I'm tired.      I was convinced my biggest issue would be hunger! That I'd be gnawing on my desk just to keep myself occupied... while I'm sure that point will come in the near future.. I'm focusing on staying awake right now.      So, the official report of pre-fast day 2 is.. I've turned into a narcoleptic.
