Day 6 and I feel good! I have lost 10lbs so an average of 2lb a day! I dont want to stuff my face full of food...I've just had a small bowl of porridge with a pear and sliced almonds and cinnamon and I feel great. Bring on the 1stone loss!!!! 4lbs to go! :-) :-)

Day 5 and I was back at work for the first time in almost a month due to illness. Not much food around except a tub if biscuits and a tin of banana cake so I didn't think about food toooo much until about 4pm then I felt really hungry. Got home and made Ryan a green thai curry and it smelt so good that was it I couldn't take any more and I had a shit load of pistachios followed by a slice of bread with almond butter. I feel bad for breaking the fast but I'm going to be super healthy as much as possible until I feel a healthy person at a healthy weight. Could literally stuff my face full of food right now but I won't! Can understand how people binge after a reboot though!

Day 4 - I weigh 13 stone 5.6lbs so a total loss of 9lbs so far. I am really missing food. A LOT. I keep nearly eating things I am about to juice e.g a blueberry or a bit of peach and then remembering I can't! We had a powercut this morning and I couldn't juice until gone midday - that was tough. I felt weak and achey and awful. I perked up after some coconut water and then shortly after, some juice. Broth is keeping me going in-between juices and providing that salty, spicy fix. I tried on my ski trousers yesterday and they were still really tight which makes me feel I haven't lost any inches around my waist which is quie important to me so I am really disappointed in that :-( I am really tempted to give in right now and call it a day but I know I'll be really disappointed in myself, I've got to stick it out.

Day 3 was tough! I went shopping with Mum in Bath... there were all sorts of smells like fresh baked bread and pastries, hot dogs, pizza, burgers... oh my god it was painful!!! I didn't feel really hungry at any time but I felt really deprived and miserable and so desperately craved eating something! Mum had a tuna and cucumber sandwich at lunchtime which was fine, I sat there and had my juice and I don't like tuna cucumber sandwiches so I wasn't too jealous. Evening came and I made mum some filled pasta with tomato sauce and lots of cheese on top... I nearly succumbed to having one bit of pasta but decided even though that one bit wouldn't make much difference overall, it would make a difference to me mentally because so far I have totally stuck to this juice fast 100%, I haven't cheated one little bit except taking medicine for my cough and cold which I couldn't avoid. Ryan went out for a curry last night (day 3) and I was sooo jealous. I started thinking about all the fatty, sugary things that I wanted to eat and couldn't stop. i had some broth which took the edge off a little bit but yes, day 3 was very tough. My body ached and I got very tired in the afternoon but no other detox side effects... day 2 was worse on that front!

Day 2 Woke at 3am this morning feeling very weak and like I had a bad hangover. Think it is the reboot rather than the cold, my cold symptoms are starting to ease a little. Down to 13stone 8 but I know that's probably just water loss. Still, 6lbs in 1 day ain't bad!!!!! :-) Had my ginger and lemon hot water this morning and now having my breakfast juice of green citrus (bag of chard, half a bag of spinach, 4 apples, 2 oranges). I also added some cinnamon and it is LUSH. Feeling motivated still. :-)

3pm and I had hunger pangs a couple of hours ago and felt rotten - pain all over my body so I had to go to bed. The hunger has gone but am still craving food again so I'm making a Thai veg broth (allowed on reboot plan) and hope that will take the edge off the cravings. The lunch juice was carrot apple ginger and it was OK probably a 7/10 nothing exciting. I'm still feeling motivated and although I dream of cheating I'm not realistically tempted at the moment. Phew! 8pm and Im pretty bored and fed up with liquids and no food.. not helped that ryans idea of ordering a takeaway earlier triggered all sorts of cravings in my head. He was kind enough to resist but had pastichio and garlic bread... one of my most favourite meals (he doesn't know) oh my god i feel like i am dribbling! The Thai veg broth was an absolute winner, I think today would have been a whole lot harder without it. Im still feeling achey all over and generally crappy but determined to stick with it! New juices to try tomorrow :-)

Day 1 Day 1 of Joe Cross reboot diet. I am so unhealthy at the moment and I want to get better. I am sluggish, picking up colds and viruses every week, had pneumonia 3 weeks ago, I'm overweight, I struggle to keep on top of depression, my bowel movements are all over the place, I've started getting skin rashes on my face for the first time ever in my 33 years and generally I need to change and get healthier and lose the excess fat too. Day 1 its 11am and I am feeling motivated. I have a sore tummy this morning for some reason which is a shame but hopefully it will sort itself out. I am not missing food or thinking what I could have had for breakfast etc... I am looking forward to trying the next juice. My weight is is14 stone and 0.6lbs and I'll add some before pics to this site. Day 1 1pm I am starting to get hunger pangs but not too bad, no real cravings yet. Just had joes mean green for lunch, don't really like this one too much, maybe a 3.5/10 the kale is too strong. I think its the kale anyway! Coconut water was delicious earlier! :-) 5pm and I'm craving food but I'm not really hungry as such. I would love to tuck into Ryan's dinner but then what's the point?!!! I'm not going to get healthy if I cheat. Lots of food adverts on tv not doing me any favours! Finding the joes mean green a bit hard to stomach for the second time today but looking forward to the peach pie delight later on! Its 8pm and I've just had my peach pie delight smoothie.... Heaven in a glass! Wow! So nice and has made it all worth it... I'm feeling good and not even jealous of Ryan's delicious smelling supper... Well maybe a little bit! Bring on day 2... Feel a bit light headed and headachey but I've got a cold so its probably down to that! Stools quite runny, flatulence!
