Day 6:

Ughhh... being sick is horrible. Day 6 of juice, day 3 of sickness. I noticed yesterday that I was hungrier than I had been in previous days. I finished my 35oz of juice for the day around 3pm. This morning, I got SUPER hunger around 9am, which is about an hour earlier than I have been. Anyway, last night... juice. I broke out the fennel bulb. Now... I love black liquorice. If you don't, you don't want to buy fennel bulbs. I grabbed the dark black cherries and some raspberries, juice the fennel bulb (on high) and threw the stalks in there too. Then I blended the juice from the bulb with the raspberries and cherries. I think they called this recipe "The Cherry Surprise" or something like that. It's good stuff, but the cherry kinda gets lost, which I'm a little bummed out about. Onto the good stuff:

Weight: 235.2 lbs
BFP: 35.2%
Hunger: 5-6

10 lbs down in 5 full days. Not too shabby. I haven't noticed any major bodily changes. My face looks a little thinner. My pants don't fit any better. That probably has something to do with the BPF still being up around 35.2%. That's the main reason I decided on such a long period of time. I figure it's going to take some time to get rid of all of the sodium and other garbage in my body. So, after all the water weight is gone, my body will finally start burning some fat. And we'll see that in the BFP.

I'm losing approximately 1.6lbs per day. If I can keep that pace for the entire 21 days, we're looking at a total weight loss of 33.6 lbs at the end. That'd put me at 211.6 lbs. It's been over a year since I've been 210 lbs. The major benefit to losing that 33 lbs is not having to carry that around with me when I run. Imagine carrying a backpack with 33 lbs worth of weight in it everywhere you go. Can you imagine running with that?! It's pain, I'll tell ya. Anyway, day 6. Here we go.
