Results from my 14 days of Juice Fasting

so if you have been reading this blog in the last month you know that i just finished a two week juice fast on father's day. it wasn't easy but it was so worth it.

in 13 days, i lost 11 pounds (and reached my goal weight) so on the 14th day i had juice for breakfast and lunch but i ate a salad for dinner.

i am not sure what my body fat percentage was before i started, if i had to guess it would be somewhere around 18-19% and when i had almost finished my fast, my trainer measured my body fat to be 13.8%!!! that proved to me then that all my hard work had truly paid off.

i still have some work to do but i am very happy i did this fast especially before heading back to the beach. i will probably need to do another when we return (detox anyone?!?)

overall everything shrank but i really see most of the results in my stomach fat and in my face.

face before

face after

some of the foods i enjoyed right after finishing the fast:

veggie omelet and fresh fruit from The String Bean Market

Nopales Salad from Mexican Grille 1900

now since being off the fast i have probably gained a couple pounds back but i know that since my body fat went down it's just a little water weight and probably from my vino!

i have several friends and other family members who have started and finished this juice fast and they too saw amazing results! i was most shocked by how great i felt, the energy i had and the fact that i was sleeping so much better than before. i will probably do this one a year as a cleanse.
