DayOne

This is so hard.  I wish I had comforting words for myself but I don’t.  All I can say is to just do it.  I’m trying this juice/smoothie fast thing and I’ve already failed. BAHAHAHA.  It’s only day one.  How did I fail already???  Le sigh. 

Yesterday, my lovely bestie DJ went with me while I spent the WHOLE day grocery shopping and preparing for this fast.  Last night, I juiced everything I would need for the day and got excited. 

I woke up this morning and grabbed my smoothie, blended it and FAIL.  I didn’t want it.  I mean, it is delicious but I really would like a Papa John’s Cheese Pizza with extra garlic sauce.  Or… one of my friends posted this delicious deli sandwich on Instagram, that also looked tasty.

So, with all that prep work how did I fail?  I think I let my thoughts linger too long on what I couldn’t have instead of what I have right in front of me.  Also, I think I should avoid the kitchen until nighttime. The salmon wasn’t even that good.  I didn’t even heat it up.  Oh, the lack of self control.  Anyways, it is day one and I messed up.  It’s cool. ::shrugs:: I’m going to continue on this juice/smoothie fast.  Maybe I will try to just do a lot of juices that I REALLY REALLY enjoy first and then start incorporating things like turmeric and kale into my juices.  I think I'll give up some social media for a while too.  We shall see...

Smooches!

FAIL... I ate pizza but starting on 1/15/14 my whole family is doing the WHOLE30!
