7 Day Juice Fast- Day 4

3/30/2017

Today I have been silently counting the days until my fast is over. It should be smooth sailing from here right? Not really....most of the week I stayed pretty close to home but today I had a long day of teaching so I did have some struggles throughout the day. 

Struggle #1: One of the nice ladies at the shop brought in some veggie chips for me today because she usually brings snacks and she wanted to bring something vegan friendly for me. I felt bad because I had o tun them down because I am on a fast.

Struggle #2: The owner of the shop where I teach ordered pizzas and said she specifically got a veggie pizza with no cheese and dairy-free crust just for me. Once the pizza arrived and all the others were eating I was sitting there smelling pizza while drinking a green juice.

Struggle #3: I had to give my second class more attention so I was unable to drink my second juice until class was over. So I had a juice at around 12:30pm and didn't have another one until 9:30pm. My energy was so zapped by the time I got home that I was too tired to make more juice tonight and I was too tired to write this post (It almost didn't get done LOL). 

When on a juice fast it is very important to be prepared and to make sure you fuel your body with enough nutrients to function. I only had about 56 ounce of juice today which was not enough to sustain me, while I don't feel bad I am very tired. 

Tomorrow I will probably be juicing everything that I have left so that I am prepared for the weekend. I will catch you all tomorrow.
