3- Day fast starting June 5th.
on: June 4, 2013, 23:30

I'm starting a 3 day fast tomorrow. I know its a random time to start, and its a short one, but I have my reasons.

1st, I'm one of those people who always says I'll start something next Monday. I wanted to give myself the least amount of reasons to skip it.

2nd, The reason it is short is because I am going away this weekend, so I want to still do it but get to enjoy the weekend.

3rd, I am a poor college student, and unfortunately fresh veggies are kinda expensive.

My goal is to help kickstart some weight loss before beach season, and a big move to the southern US (and I grew up in the north, so I want to lose some weight to maybe help battle the heat better)

Jglenn, congrats on making the decision to start a fast. Anytime is a good time to start. Remember though, juicing comes out to cost about $10-$15 per day even if you go organic. That's not in addition to your current costs of eating as you will not be eating anything, just juicing. In most cases, it's actually cheaper to juice than people realize.

It's great that you have set a goal, and gave yourself the least amount of reason to put it off. With that mentality, you will do great! Keep me posted on your success!

"Willpower is essential to the accomplishment of anything worthwhile." Keep this in mind while on your fast!

I was 212 lbs before I started juicing, today I am 185 lbs and feel better than I did 10 years ago!

Day 1, so far so good. I had a juice last night for dinner (after some of the "junk" I bought when I was shopping for my veggies) just so the last thing I had at night wasn't horrible.

Woke up this morning feeling good, I was worried because I love coffee. Made 3 juices this morning ,Breakfast and two lunch juices. I was surprised that the juicer didn't wake up my roommate who works nights, but I know it bothered the girlfriend (she made it known). The only container I had that would fit the juice for lunch in it was a nalgene water bottle. Anyone have any tips on how to bring juice to work?

Hey, I'm starting today and in with you. When I've juiced on the the go before, I used mason jars from wal-mart (get a pack of the white plastic tops too, the metal ringed ones can leak and rust, but they'll do if you can't). In the sporting goods section of Wal Mart there are some ice packs that look like a bunch of ice cubes connected on a sheet. It's 1.98, I think. Toss that in the freezer and then put it at the bottom of some kind of bag with your mason jars on top. I hope that makes sense.

Mason Jars....duh, why didn't i think of that?!?! It's different not having to take a lunch break at work, so I am taking a walk instead of eat(because I can drink juice at my desk!)

Yup, Mason Jars work really well!
