Day Three
Wednesday 25rd February 2015  Weight    13:8    Loss 4lbs

Woke up at 4am, much too early! Could NOT get back to sleep, so I've been tired all day, probably a bit of day 3 fatigue as well though tbh.

Dave off today so we've been busy, busy, busy. Got loads done but still got a few things from my Monday 'to do' list that I've still not done.

I've had all my Day 3 juices today but I did them in a different order to the plan. For some reason juices 1 & 4 are the same as are juices 2 & 3. When I made juice 1 there was twice as much as I wanted/needed so I decided to have half of it for breakfast and the other half for lunch. Consequently, I had the other juice for Afternoon and evening. I can't see why it would make a difference what order I have them in so I think I'll do that every day, it makes for a little less washing up of the juicer.

Went to Lamberts Castle to walk the dogs this morning and up to the flyover with them again this evening, I think they're beginning to expect the evening walk now. Not what they're used to. I've done over 10,000 steps every day this week, i must keep it up!

Just sitting watching Arsenal v Monaco first leg Champion's League match at the moment. Arsenal losing 0-1 at half time so Dave's not a happy bunny. Come On Arsenal!!

If I get a good nights sleep tonight, hopefully I'll wake up with the Day 4 'high' tomorrow. I doubt it, but then I don't really suffer from the first 3 days withdrawal either, thanks to the fact that I'm vegetarian, I eat very little dairy and definitely don't drink milk. I rarely eat junk food, I don't smoke, I don't drink tea or coffee and I don't smoke. I don't even drink very much alcohol so I don't really have anything to 'withdraw' from. My problem is I just eat TOO much.

Back to the match.

Day Two
Tuesday 24th February 2015    Weight    13:9    Loss 3lb

A good start.

Woke at 6:15am again this morning and I followed the same routine as yesterday, except that I took Dave to work.

At 9:55am I had Jason's 'Electrolyte Shot' which is not very nice at all, but it's only small. I had all my juices today and also did a lot of walking. I met up with Dave at lunchtime to walk right round the Cobb and back to the office.

I helped Grandad with his train station model this afternoon before I went to pick Dave up from work.

I took the dogs for another walk this evening, just down to the flyover and back and I'm feeling really relaxed and tuckered out. It's only 9:20pm but I think I'm going to settle down to sleep now.

Day One
Monday 23rd February 2015       Start Weight    13:12

I have finally managed to unstick my backside from the sofa today. I got up at 6:15am, made the lemon juices and ginger shots and made Dave's porridge.

At 7:15am I went out for a walk with the dogs until 8:00am.

Took Nan to her optician appointment at 9:30am and made my first juice as soon as I got home. I then watched Jason's coaching video for Day 1 and checked what shopping I needed for the next weeks juices.

I decided that I needed to go to Riverford and Waitrose today, which I then did.

Got home about 3:30pm and made my second juice then. I put all the shopping away and then made Billy a couple of baguettes. I decided I would cook a Chana Saag curry for Tom & Dave to have after playing squash.

I finally had a sit down to watch one episode of Grey's Anatomy when Dave & Tom went off to play squash.

I had my third and last juice at about 7:30pm when Dave had his dinner. I missed out on one of the day's juices because I was out shopping for so long.

It's now 10:30pm and I'm feeling tired but pretty good.  :)

 Bring on day two!!
 

Damn! Here I am again, back over 14 stone. What's wrong with me?!

TODAY'S DATE IS SUNDAY 22nd FEBRUARY 2015

In my last post I was well on the way to a substantial weight loss. I can't remember the exact amount I lost in January 2013, but it was a lot. I spent most of the year relatively happy with my weight, but felt the need for another 30 day fast throughout November. I again succeeded in getting my weight down to below 140lbs and had a very happy, low weight Christmas.

2014 was a weight disaster! A gradual weight gain until our Tunisia holiday in September, but after that the floodgates opened and the weight piled on. I stopped having any juices except my usual morning lemon juice and ginger shot.

By the new year I was back up to 14st 5lbs (201lbs). I wasn't doing any exercise and I felt like a total slob.

I have made several attempts to start a juice fast since then without success, I just can't seem to find the motivation that I have felt before and that I need.

I have just read through my previous posts and I'm hoping that they will give me the momentum that I'm missing.

Tomorrow is going to be day one of the Jason Vale 'Super Juice Me' 28 day program. I've got the app and I've tried it out for a few days a couple of weeks ago and I really liked the juices. I think I need a structured plan this time for some reason.

I'm feeling down and fed up with having no energy or drive to do anything. I want this to change, I want to re-discover the vigour for life that I had when I was juicing before. I'm going to up my exercise and maybe my Golden Cap walk is the way to go, I'd forgotten about that.

Right, tomorrow it is! I must get a grip on myself.

IF I DON'T CHANGE NOTHING WILL CHANGE AND EVERYTHING HAS TO CHANGE!!
