  1. hi everyone!

    Hi everyone! I'm new to this forum and this is my first time blogging. I am about to start a 92 day juice feast and today is my farewell to solids.

    I've come to a conclusion. 4 days is the magic number. 4 days ago I had some (cooked) brownies. I was doing so well, but I gave in for reasons that I should have been able to control. Anyways, for the days since then I have been eating all healthy (I'm 90% raw, 10% cooked whole grains and legumes), and today I woke up feeling GREAT!
