    345 DAYS TO GO. 131.1 lbs

    Today weight is not what I expected, specially after I run half marathon yesterday. But it might be caused by my period that came yesterday.
    I am afraid today I won't go out running since it is rainning cats and dogs. Tomorrow the weather will be better.

    Yesterday my brother noticed that I lost weight (he didn't see me for 20 days) so that makes me happy. Maybe the scale doesn't show excellent numbers, but I am gaining muscle while losing fat, so the numbers on the scale won't always go down.

    • Tea Chujoto
    • Tea with soy milk and one weetabix
    LUNCH:
    • Bowl of rice with pumpkin curry

    350 DAYS TO GO . 129.6lbs

    It seems the exercise I made yesterday is working. I didn't lose weight, but hey! .. I didn't gain any weight!
    Anyway... I shouln't focus too much on the scale... muscle weighs more than fat, so I can be heavier but fitter.

    Here is my weight and exercise progress for the past months:



    Yesterday I beat my own running record.  Personal best One hour of 8.82 km which is a 310.51 m improvement.
    I am making an exercise plan so I can run 5K in less than 30 min before end of Feb 2014.

    Winter is coming, so if you want to save some money in your heating bill, here is an idea: heat your room with candles!  You just need 2 or 3 candles (the ones you can get in IKEA work ok, the 100pcs pack that last for 4 hours) and two pots!

    I will try it as soon as I buy the materials and let you know!

    BREAKFAST:
    • Tea Chujoto
    • Juice: carrot and oranges
    MID MORNING:
    • Tea with soy milk

    351 DAYS TO GO . 129.6lbs

    Well, it is normal that after a fast I gain some weight back (specially when I ate 2 doughnuts yesterday), and I am happy that I am gaining it much slower than I lost it, but I want to break this trend and go back to the "losing weight" trend, so today I am planning to do more exercise.


    I started reading to day Skinny bitch

    Monday, 11 November 2013

    352 DAYS TO GO . 129lbs

    I gained a pound since I finish my juice fast (two days ago).
    I am "gaining" the weight back much slower than I lost it, so I don't consider it as gaining back the weight I lost during the juice fast. I will focus on juices and eating mostly fruit and vegetables Mon-Fri and only make another juice fast if I go up to 130 lbs again.

    Yesterday I had itchy and running nose... it was horrible.  Today it's much better!
    Was it because of milk? I don't really know. I won't have any diary product Mon-Fri, and then have some on Saturday and see what happens.
    Is milk really good for you?


    Outside is bloody windy, so I don't know if I will  go out running.

    BREAKFAST:

    • Tea Chujoto
    • Orange and persimmon juice
    • Tea with soy milk
    MID MORNING:
    • Tea with soy milk + 4 no sugar cookies
    LUNCH:
    • homemade corn soup
    • broccoli with shrimps and carrots
    • 1/2 glass soy milk
    SNACK:
    • 1/2 glass soy milk + 1 weetabix
    DINNER:
    • Fish with fennel
    LATE NIGHT SNACK:
    • Two doughnuts ( I know...I am ashamed for that....I am sure tomorrow I will be over 130lbs... if so, I will make fast juice till I get under 130lbs)
    EXERCISE:
    • More than one hour walking (283 cal)

    Sunday, 10 November 2013

    353 DAYS TO GO . 128 lbs

    So everything was fine, I didn't feel any stomach pain because of breaking my fast, and this morning I went to the loo as I used to do in the mornings.
    I still weith the same as yesterday (128 lbs). I guess if I work out hard to build muscle as I keep introducing more and more calories in my diet it will be fine.

    Today my allergy got worse.  I must have some allergy to something I ate today (today I drunk some milk in my tea and a yogurth.. maybe it's this).  I am going to stop eating any diary product and see if it improves (it did when I did my juice fast)

    I am not hungry yet, although I went shopping and there was Xmas chocolate everywhere.
    I can't be bother to make the juices either...but I will make an effort to make them and drink them.
    I guess it is because it's cold outside, but I rather drink my hot tea than cold juices.....

    • One apple
    • Herbal Tea
    SNACK:

    Friday, 8 November 2013

    355 DAYS TO GO. Juice fasting day 5. 129.2 lbs (-3.8 lbs)

    Today I reached my first goal, I am under 130 lbs.
    I know I shouldn't be very happy for it, since I am sure I will gain some weight once I finish my juice fast, but I will try my best to stay under 130lbs, eating only fruits and vegetables for some days after my juice fast and exercising.

    The past two days I wake up before my alarm clock rings and I feel I have more energetic.
    Today I woke up at 7.20 and I didn´t feel like going back to bed at all.

    I didn't go to the loo either. I guess my digestive systems is completely empty and cleaning itself.
    I don't feel hungry (in the mornings I have to force myself to drink the juices)

    I don't know how I am going to avoid lunch with my parents this weekend. I guess I tell them I am doing juice fast (although I am sure they won't understand).

    JUICES:
    • 2 apples, celery, 1/2 lemon and ginger
    • 2 pears, celery, ginger, 1/2 lemon, 2 small red radishes
    • 1 beet (with leaves), 3 carrot, 1/2 lemon, spinach

    I added some soy milk in my afternoon tea.

    DINNER:
    • Half cup of Soy milk

    Thursday, 7 November 2013

    356 DAYS TO GO. Juice fasting day 4. 130.3 lbs (-2.7 lbs)

    I didn't lose much weight since yesterday, but I don't think it is because of the chicken soup I drunk last night. Hopefully tomorrow I will be in the 120's
    Today I didn't go to the loo.

    The weekend is almost here... I will try  not to break my juice fast so I can continue next week and make my juice fast at least 10 days.

    Juice Fasting mode has conquered my fridge!

    JUICES:
    • 2 Carrot and 2 oranges
    • 2 Orange, 1 persimmon and some lemon

    357 DAYS TO GO. Juice fasting day 3. 130.7 lbs (-2.3 lbs)

    Today I feel fine. I lost 1.1 lbs.
    Another pimple popped out on my face, so I think it is because of the detoxing.

    Today at 17.00 ( 2 days and 5 hours after I started my juice fast) I start being hungry (I think it is more mental than physical need).


    • Tea during all day (including one cup of Chujoto Tea )

    JUICES:
    • Oranges, lemon and persimmons
    • Apple, carrot and ginger
    • Carront and oranges

    Today I didn't do exercise. I was hungry, so for dinner I had chicken soup. I needed something hot!
    I don't think this will break my fast, since it is also a liquid. We will see how much I weight tomorrow.

    DINNER:
    • Chicken soup without any solid stuff inside

    Tuesday, 5 November 2013

    358 DAYS TO GO. Juice fasting day 2. 131.8 lbs (-1.2 lbs)

    Second day of juice fasting. I lost 1.2 lbs, not bad.
    Still not hungry, but today I felt a bit tired when I just woke up. After an hour it was already ok.
    During the past month, I usually wake up with lot of mucus and sneezing a lot, I guess it is some kind of allergy, but nothing important (yet) so I didn't go to see the doctor.
    Today, the symptoms are less, but I don´t know if it's because of the juice fasting. We will see if it complete disappear before I end the juice fast.
    Today I went to the loo regurarly (I usually go in the morning).

    I went grocery shopping and I didn't feel hungry, even though the whole supermarket is already full of Christmas sweets.

    At night, I saw my tongue was quite white.

    Monday, 4 November 2013

    359 DAYS TO GO. Juice fasting day 1. 133lbs

    It is rainning :( ... I will go out running when it stops in the afternoon (if it does....)

    I am starting a juice fast today at 12.00pm. I need to go buying some more green vegs to do green juices, I hope the rain gives me a break!


    I am planning to do the juice fasting for 7 days, but I will see how my body reacts and will decide if I make it longer day by day.  I´ve read that the worts days are 2nd-4th, because your body is detoxing.

    It will be hard to fast, since I still need to cook for my bf. I hope I can resist the temptation. I will drink as much juice and tea as I need not to feel hungry. But I am really going to miss the milk in my tea....

    Here is a pic of myself before the juice diet. 4/11/2013 (133 lbs)

    BF:

    • Juice: orange and carrot 
    • Milk tea with one weetabix
    12.00PM  JUICE FASTING STARTS (Starting weight 133 lbs)


    JUICES OF THE DAY:
    • orange and carrot
    • apple, carrot and ginger
    • pear, celery, lemon
    • pear, celery, lemon, cucumber, spinach

    Today it was ok. I cook lunch for my bf and I didn't feel hungry. I drunk my juice while he was eating. No problem since my juice was delicious!
    I prepared a second batch of juices for the afternoon/evening, this time greener juices.
    At night, I wasn´t hungry either.
    One pimple pop up on my face, which is not usual (I don´t usually have pimples). I don´t know if it has to do with the detoxing process.

    EXERCISE:

    • Dancing class (990 cal). My feet hurt because I used new dancing shoes

    361 DAYS TO GO

    Saturday! I can go running in the morning!!

    I went running without having breakfast (just a little milk in my coffee).  Some studies show that doing exercise before breakfast (or after not eating for at least 4 hours) helps you to burn fat, since there is no other source of energy for your muscles.  If you exercise right after eating, your muscles will use all the sugar in your bloodstream, and it takes longer to start burning fat.

    So this is my workout today:

    INTAKE:

    BF:
    • Cup of tea (Chujoto)
    • Coffee with milk (no sugar)
    MID:
    • One apple
    LUNCH:

    • One bowl of Chinese rice (it had pork meat and mushrooms)
    • One banana
    TEA TIME:
    • Milk tea
    • Apple
    DINNER:

    • One bowl of Chinese rice (same as lunch)
    NIGHT SNACKS:
    • 1 yogurth
    • Milk tea
    EXERCISE:
    • Running 1010 calories (15.15 km).

    Yesterday I shouldn´t have eaten all that bread.... but I don´t know why, when watching TV I get hungry.... I guess it is because of all those food commercials ..

    I am going to weigh myself every Tuesday. I see pointless to weigh in everyday, since those small changes might be just because of water retention or dehydration.

    Today I really need to go running and burn at least 500 cal.

    I made my grocery list to buy all the fruits&vegs I need to do the juice fasting but...... shit!  a friend just came over to stay with us for a week ... so I can't start my juice fast till he is gone!!
    I am sure he will invite us for dinner out on the last night and it will also be awkward not to eat during his stay...

    INTAKE:

    B:
    • Cup of tea (Chujoto)
    • Fresh juice (orange, beet, celery, lettuce and pinnaple)

    MID:
