I had a productive day! I got up early and decided to go with my plan of cleaning my room. I am bad with cleaning! I start off with making more of a mess than I originally had to begin with. When Chris got home from work around 2, there was a huge mess... he had trouble coming into my room to say hi. He ended up helping me for a bit. Here is what he walked into:
We ended up working pretty quickly and finished it. I am so happy I have a nice clean room now!
I also was able to talk him into going shopping with me! We went to Bed Bath & Beyond to start purchasing some of the things I will need for my juice fast. We got some new storage containers so I can prep most of the fruits and veggies for a few days at a time. Then in the morning it will be so much easier to just grab what I want and throw it in the juicer. In the mornings I will be making my breakfast, lunch, and a snack. I also bought mason jars to store the lunch and snack in while I'm at work. I've been reading up on how to store juices, and mason jars are recommended. You are supposed to store them in glass, not metal or plastic, and the container needs to be airtight so the fresh juices don't spoil. To transport them in, I bought a really cute lunch bag. It has a removable ice pack that I'll keep in it to keep my juice nice and cold. Tomorrow or Monday I want to go to Von's to get a to-go tumbler I saw there. It was double insulated, and had a gel in-between the layers. I figure I'll keep it in the freezer overnight, so when I pour my breakfast into the cup, it will get cold as well. I'm not very fond of warm juice.
While we were getting ready to check out. I found The Juicing Bible. It has over 300 different fruit and vegetable juice recipes, as well as facts about all types of herbs and produce. One of the things I found interesting was that they have different ailments listed as well as what juices or herbs will help relieve the symptoms. That will be fantastic if I experience any of the detox symptoms common when you fast. I am hoping I won't, but you never know! Here's what I bought:

I am really getting excited for this! I feel that if I do it right, it will be a completely life-changing experience for me.
