When I moved to California from Las Vegas to be with my boyfriend at the time (who is now my lovely husband), I left everything I knew behind. I lived in Vegas for 17 years of my life, and thus it's where I grew up and called home. Family, my best friend, college I attended, familiar faces and streets, my favorite places. . .it was all gone when I went to California. I recall feeling stressed, and my health routine suffered. After losing 50 pounds, I had actually fallen out of my fitness routine.
Here I am a few years down the road, proud to have a job that keeps me very active and allows me to do what I love, going back to college, and married to the only person I could ever imagine myself growing old with. I'm ready to get my body back to its healthiest state.
I sincerely love going to college. Call me crazy, call me what you may. There's such a variety of courses that you can participate in. I signed up for a class called "Physical Fitness" this semester, which began on Tuesday this week. Physical fitness classes concentrate on building your strength, endurance, and flexibility. Attending a class with about 40 other people and pumping iron is an amazing feeling. You've got so much motivation from your classmates! Being in this class got me thinking: it's been a while since my body has felt this healthy, how else can I help my body to get back to the state it was in?
I was familiar with the idea of fasting, but never wanted to take part in it until I learned that it was a form of getting rid of built up toxins in your body. I have been thinking about doing a fast that was healthy, made sense, and lasted long enough to kickstart my kidneys into a super filtration system. I have decided to do a three day juicing fast. Although I'm currently in the research state, I would love to share my daily thoughts and feelings with you while I am on my fast.
Has anyone done a juice fast themselves, or knows of someone who has? Share your experiences, I'd love to hear!
