The Apple Juice Fast: Day 1

Well, I transitioned this morning from the lemon juice to a glass of orange juice. I did the salt water flush, of course. There’s still flushing happening, which is inconceivable to me. Whatever, I’ll be flushing all week anyway.

Right, so I took a half gallon bottle of apple juice to work with me. Sure enough, the apple juice takes care of your hunger. People, I’m at the point where I can watch someone eat and smell their delicious food (today I could smell my boss’ pesto pasta thingy during our lunch meeting), and…

…it does nothing for me. No salivation, no pangs, no hunger, nothing. I’m full up on apple juice, and apparently satiated. I will be having a light vegetable brothy soup tonight that Aimee’s making for me for dinner. I’m pretty excited about that. And mainly behttp://planet.gentoo.org/developers/seemant/2006/10/17/the_apple_juice_fast_day_2cause I’ll have that tonight and for lunch tomorrow, then it’s back to apple juice until Friday lunch. I bought fruits to eat, but this apple juice makes me not hungry during the day. In fact, it’s after 5 right now, and I’m still on my last glass of juice. Certainly, I will not be drinking the full gallon today, but half a gallon is still pretty good.

Read ahead to Day 2
