Sandwiches and Pears

Day 2

Weight: 242.2

Man oh man! Yesterday was a challenge! My  husband apparently forgot that I was on a juice fast and called me several times yesterday inquiring about what we are having for dinner, where to go for, dinner and OH YEAH, that he invited a friend over for dinner... 

We decided to just grab some sandwiches from my favorite sandwich shop up the road from our house and I told my husband that I would just start my fast tomorrow. As soon as I got off of the phone with him, I realized that I was being stupid. If I postponed my fast by one day I would just keep postponing until I finally give up on the whole idea. So last night I had the wonderful experience of watching my family stuff their faces full of my favorite food while I sipped on my cold juice. 

Honestly, I feel very proud of myself for not giving in and snatching somebody's food out of their hands and snarfing it down like the hungry, hungry hippo that I am. I woke up this morning and hopped right on the scale to see that I had lost a little bit of weight. It was not as much as I would like to have lost, but 1.4lbs isn't half bad! I decided to go out for a walk bright and early too, but I could not find my mp3 player, and well... I just can't go without it. I will take my son to the park to run around and play later to make up for it though. I have to tear my house apart to find the missing mp3 player, which I do not look forward to doing but it is a necessary evil in my plot to get fit!

I made a mish-mash juice today that involved a lot of pears (of which I had a lot of extra). I will post the recipe under the recipe section of my blog if you would like to give it a whirl!
