Day 10 was yesterday and I officially completed my reboot with juice. I lost a total of about 6 pounds, but who knows if that will stick or not. I'm hoping it sticks and continues on.
I learned some new recipes that excite me for the future. I tried some new vegetables that had yet to make it onto my plate before. And they shall return, with great fervour. Perhaps, urban fervour? I think if I can keep up the shopping I'll keep up as much juicing as I can. In reality I was drinking at most three juices a day. I preferred to start the day with a smoothie, which requires far less physical fruit & veg than a juice. So that's two juices and a smoothie, per day. And a few soups and salads thrown in the mix. Shouldn't be too hard? And I'll be eating far healthier than before. Including a lot of days that I wouldn't eat anything until I got home after work. Mostly out of laziness.
I helped myself to a large serving of pasta tonight and spent the last 2 hrs running in and out of the bathroom. I hope I haven't ruined my digestive system. Oh boys.
And that's all I have to say about that.

Woot woot! For completing the reboot, that is, not the pasta aftermath. I was wondering what you'd end up with on your dinner plate. Yum. And congrats!
The Pasta Aftermath would have been the perfect title lol. I want my roasted veggies back.
Actually if I stick to veggies I like the most, I think I could probably keep up 90% of the diet. Once I'm done with the sweet potatoes in my fridge they are dead to me.
I'm also excited to branch out and try some new recipes, including ingredients like honeydew.
Way to go, Julie!!! How is your energy level??
Seemingly unaffected?? I think I would need to keep it up a bit more long term. 10 days was pretty much arbitrary, and I just wanted to prove to myself I could do it. And now that it's done and I'm on my own, I have a whole lot more to prove.
