30-Days Juice Fast: Day 8 recipes

Hi guys,

How did your day go? Today was such a long day for me.

Anyway, I made my juices early this morning but somehow ran out right about midday. At about lunch time (which for me was 2pmish), i went to Costa with a friend and OMG all the sandwiches suddenly started screaming my name in perfect Spanish!

I sat across from my friend with a bottle of innocent orange juice (my compromise) and did not hear a thing she said because i was focused on fighting the temptation to reach across the table and grab her sandwich!

However, I did not do that. I simply smiled, listened and continued sipping my juice. So, I am proud to announce, to all lovers of food like me, that i walked away from those sandwiches with my integrity intact, thank you! 

The fact is that sandwiches will always be there- they are not going to suddenly decide to relocate to Mars! They will wait patiently for me on the other side of this juice fast. So, see ya later Costa Sandwiches!

On that note, here are Day 8 recipes -

What you would need:

1.   Time – obviously

2.   A Juicer or/ a smoothie maker (a good blender if no smoothie maker)

3.   A chopping board (optional)

4.   Knives (optional)

6.   Apple cider vinegar (to wash fruits and vegetables. See: ‘30-Day Juice Fast: Day 1- Mind Prep!’ post sent on 28^th of Feb. 2013 for veggie washer recipe.)
