Sky is the Limit.

I'm proud of me. I just completed an 11 day juice cleanse and I'm living to tell about it. 

During the first 4 days of my cleanse I felt the food withdrawals like a chain smoker that can't find a way to light up. I started thinking about any type of food and I would Yelp restaurants to look at food pictures. Sad. I'd also watch Food Network and the Travel Channel food episode while I drank my green juice, in hopes to satisfy my cravings. I didn't feel too hungry as drinking lots of lemon water suppressed my appetite but I fucking felt madd deprived from eating. I blame my peoples in which I love forevers but fucking wanted to kick on the box for eating bomb ass food around me. I even went to a lounge over that weekend and I had to "turn down" both from drank and HYPHYness. Wack. 

After my days in Hell's Kitchen, I started to feel the beneficial effects of juicing. My energy was flowing and was on a daily repeated loop, my skin didn't need to get beat up with pretty making products as it glowed naturally, my mood was a very stable nice bitch IDGAF, and I could see a smaller reflection. But the most meaningful experience overall was that I felt awesome from detoxing and rebooting my body. 

For fools who don't know much about juicing, it's madd simple; you just drink juice. No eating solid foods, just drinking a veggie based juice with a small amount of fruit juice. I drank a recipe of kale and spinach, cucumbers, celery, apples, ginger and added cayenne pepper and coconut water. And a few days I drank a recipe of beets, kale and carrots with the pepper and water added too. And don't forget to binge off of water too. It's a major part of the cleanse. I even did some cardio and still worked 40 hours too along with hitting the weights...but it was a beautiful struggle. 

Although I'm finished, it's just gonna be a break and I'm not gonna take for granted my renewed self. So I'm mos def gonna eat more wiser and I'll even try juicing for maybe 20 days. No promises, just listening to my body's temple.

Thank you to all my friends and family and especially my love who always washed my juicer when I was sick of doing it.
