Sorry for Day 7's post happening this morning, not last night. I'd been fighting a headache with my residual toothache all day and was FREEZING cold, so I curled up into bed in a light sweatshirt, socks, and an extra blanket over the comforter and went to sleep. Slept great, too - first 8 hours in a VERY long time.
Even though this juice feasting and fasting is NOT centered around weight loss, I did do a weight and measurement check-in after seven days of just liquids. The results?
Starting Weight: 224
Week 1 Weight: 219.4
Difference: -4.6 pounds
Losing at an average of .65 lbs a day is pretty good on a liquid fast, and I'm fine that it's not more. Means I'm drinking enough and I'm very happy with that. I've also lost anywhere from .5 inch to 1 inch all over, which I already knew from the way my clothes have been fitting. Thank you, sweet Lord, for every pound and every inch struggled for and lost this week.
However, I was really please to see I was under 220. 220 is pretty much my weight plateau that I bounce around at regularly. Last time I was in the teens was a year and-a-half ago and I'd really hoping (and yes, I'll admit, praying) I can stay under it for good now. It is time to get back to ONE-derland (under 200 pounds) again - I haven't been there since 2007. It's time to get there again!
