Day 40!

Just writing the blog post title today was exciting! It's very hard to believe that it's been 40 days that I've been at this juice fast. I just finished up a Zumba class and feeling amazing! I'm hoping that this feeling continues throughout the night and that I won't be tempted to cheat. Overall today was a pretty good day. Still not doing great in terms of the water, but I vow to get better at that this weekend. As my college roommate would remind me when I got sick, I need to flood the system. The one downer today was a colleague who questioned what would happen when the juice fast is finished. Often times I find myself wondering the same thing. But I'm hoping that by going back and reading these blog posts I can remind myself that what my dedication can do. One of my goals for this blog has always been to document the strong will power that I do possess. That way I can look back during future moments of weakness and see that I am strong and I can do it. My past no longer defines my future. I've changed my habits and now am a healthy person and plan on staying that way. I'm doing this for myself but more importantly for my family. I have proven that I can change and I'm going to keep that change alive for the rest of my life. Juice on!
