Day 9 of Juice Fast

Juice!!

So today is almost the 10 day mark and I'm getting pretty excited to be at the half way point of my fast. I've been consuming nothing but juice and water for 9 days and I haven't felt this good, mentally or physically, since I first turned vegan 3.5 years ago.

I didn't have time to make juice fresh this morning so the only thing I could take to work was one small glass that I had preserved in the refrigerator. It was the end of the juice I made for myself last night with mostly fruit. I was pretty tired this morning so it was nice to have the fruit's sugar give me the little kick that I needed. I was able to make a small portion of mean green when I came home from lunch, just to get me through the day until I could buy more cucumber and celery to make more. 

This evening I made a juice that was half mean green, half fruit juice.

50/50:
6 Kale leaves
1/2 pound red grapes
4 Kiwi
5 Carrots
1 Celery stalk
1 bit of pineapple


The color of this one is a little weird, and way off of how it taste. By the taste alone I would imagine this juice to be bright orange. It was very delicious and I can't wait to have the last cup :)





Great news! The garden is now fully complete and is now protected from Roger getting his paws on the plants!  ( I'm going to make it this week's mission to get a great picture of Roger or one of his descendants. Cant wait until I can stop paying so much for basil and make all the Pesto and vegan Alfredo I can dream of. I have 14 basil plants currently :)
