Day 7:

Here's what I'm noticing: I'm lazy. In the morning, I'm all about drinking juice all day. I have no issues throughout the day either. As soon as I get home, I lay on the couch and I have this incredible urge to nap. Sometimes, I give in. Other times, I can abstain. Either way, when I realize it's 10 O'clock and I have to get to sleep soon... but before that, I have to juice everything for the next day, I get really upset about juicing. I get this "Am I really still doing this?" feeling. But then I spend the 5 minutes juicing whatever it is and cleaning the juicer, and I go to sleep. The only thing I don't like about this juice fast... is the physical juicing part. I'll drink juice all day forever... I just don't want to have to do the juicing. That's the epitome of lazy. Anyway, onward:

Weight: 234.2 lbs
BFP: 35.2%
Hunger: 3-4

Another pound down and still no change in my BFP. What's interesting though, is that my visceral fat dropped by 1 point. I haven't been posting my visceral stats on here, because I wasn't sure if anyone cared. For those who aren't aware, visceral fat is the fat inbetween your organs! It's more dense and more difficult to get rid of than subcutaneous fat (the fat that sits under your skin) and can have some serious adverse effects on your health if you have too much of it. My rating (14) is horrible. You should have a visceral fat rating of around 7-8 to be healthy. Anything over 13 is unhealthy. Visceral fat is what causes "pot bellys" and "beer bellys". The biggest concern is that having high amounts of visceral fat has been directly linked to heart disease. This morning, my VFR dropped from 14 to 13! Sweet! A new stat.

Today's juice is pretty darn tasty; 4 pears, 2 apples, 1 banana. Juice, juice, blend. Gotta use these bananas faster. They're starting to go bad. Something my Aunt told me: Don't buy more fruits and veggies than you'll use in 3 days (she knows her stuff). As for my comment yesterday about my pants not fitting any better; I'm a liar. I was sitting down when I wrote that. I've been pulling my pants up all day. I figure I've probably lost around 2" on my waist, but I have no way of knowing, because I didn't measure. Anyway, 1 week down. Two weeks to go.
