Last week I weighed-in at 244 pounds. Today I'm at 236. That's an 8-pound weight loss for the week, and 24 pounds overall. I've realized I'm becoming attached to aspects of the fast that were not part of my original intention. I did this to take a break from my unhealthy relationship with food. I did this to release my addiction to eating as a cure for basically everything. And that I'm doing. So I'm making a conscious effort today to stop comparing myself to other juice fasters. To stop obsessing over how much weight I lost this week. To stop staring at my arms in the mirror in disbelief that they don't seem to have changed one bit. To stop telling myself I'm not doing enough.
And what I'll do instead . . .is continue to enjoy the smells of other people cooking and eating. To continue drooling over the raw meals I plan to make when the fast ends. To look forward to my yoga immersion. To be amazed at every pound that comes off. To start running again!
I LOVE this girl's Youtube juice fast blog! I saw her last entry first, and went back to look at her day one entry and SHE LOOKS AMAZING! What a transformation in just 30 days. Inspirational.
