I just scarfed down a 3/4 lb cheeseburger, french fries, and a large chocolate milkshake!!!! Totally kidding. Those days are over with. As planned we went out to lunch with Kate for her going away lunch. Decided on Jimmy John's, which was totally fine for my diet. TBH I really didn't want to go. 1) I wasn't hungry. 2) The guilt was already kicking in.
I brought in my Mean Green Juice to drink and I ordered a Vegetarian on Wheat. I also told them to hold the chips! It looked absolutely awesome.
It was very delicious! But I actually had a slight puking sensation. Back in the day if I was bored, I'd eat even if I wasn't hungry. That's how I felt while eating this sandwich, and I got full really fast. And I don't care what kind of diet I'm on, I'm not going to waste food and I'm going to eat it all! So yes, I finished it. Let me tell you that if I hear anyone eating a vegetarian sandwich on wheat, I would tell them that is a super wise decision and good for them for eating healthy. But man, after a week of nothing but juice, I feel SOOOOO guilty right now. I think of the cheese, the mayo, the carbs. What was once considered healthy, I now think of "not healthy enough".
Total damage: 670 calories, 35g fat, 49g cholesterol, 70g carbs, 24g protein. WTF??? Isn't that really bad even if you're NOT on a diet??? OK, so maybe Jimmy John's wasn't such a great idea, and now I REALLY feel guilty!
In other news, Liza just commented on my previoius post with a list of side effects from detoxing/juicing:
feeling cold - I feel cold all the time! But I thought it's just cuz it's winter!
light headedness/dizziness - Little bit, but not much
bad breath - I dunno, I'll ask DJ
body odor - DJ hasn't complained!
constipation or diarrhea - Yes on the rrhea!
stomach ache - little bit
canker sores - YUP!
acne or other skin eruptions - nope
increased dreaming - YES! I'm actually going to play the lottery today cuz I dreamed last night that I won!
changes in sleep patterns - nope
aches and pains - just this morning I was massaging my own shoulders while driving into work.
frequent urination - ALL THE FREAKIN TIME
coated tongue - a result of your body shedding toxins and cleansing itself - nope
headaches – possibly the result of withdrawal from caffeine or a reduction in salt or sugar consumption. - very very slight
Who'd of thunk that a vegetarian on wheat would be soo delicious??
ReplyDeleteIt's actually hilarious, esp hilarious to anyone who remotely knows us.
Ya, those numbers are a bit high....but considering what a juice is, then everything's high! I'd be willing to bet you gain some back after just this meal, but it should be temporary if you keep on keeping on and also limit your "vegetarian on wheat" intake.
I've had some wicked dreams lately...apparently I'm the main character of Call of Duty. Who knew??
I also have sore muscles, as if I'd been working out. The only other one that I've really noticed is the sleep thing. I fall asleep faster, my sleeps are more satisfying and I generally have no problems waking up.
Good job on the sammich......your diarrhea starts in 5, 4, 3, 2....
I'd empty that colon before heading home, could be a messy ride for ya!
Keep feeling guilty too, it'll keep your kiet honest:)
Liza, since we're both detoxing, we should get a chiropractor to adjust our backs, get a deep tissue massage, do the liver detox, and then hit up bikram! talk about a detox overload!
ReplyDeletewe'd become one large zit or canker sore!
ReplyDeletehotness
ok, so i decided to put off my total fast til another day and keep doing my 2 juices and 1(vegetarian ) meal thing. i did lose 2 lbs in 2 days, but i didn't wanna lose 2 lbs!
ReplyDeleteso i decided, screw it, i'm gonna have dinner tonight. Meat, at that! I've really only had meat twice since January 7th. Once at 4 sisters a few weeks ago and some meat(not really) at my dad's bday party. Everything else I've had is vegetarian.
baked pork chops and sweet corn mashed potatoes, a very small portion of course.
so...1. i can't finish my small portion to save my life, extremely full really fast
2. as I'm eating i start to get a bit dizzy
3. within 10 minutes my stomach starts doing this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wbDiujuv6rQ
I'm scared to go to the bathroom!
Scary to think of why I got dizzy from eating meat. Not to mention my stomach is literally doing flips and making LOUD gurgling noises.
Looks like I'm really really going to have to lay off the meat!
My body has decided for me.
Flexitarian here I come!
