Shopping and first drink

Well I didn't get a chance to go grocery shopping on Tuesday like I wanted too but I went yesterday and this is what I brought home to prepare for my fast.........

Now mind you some of this is to make baby food for my 6 month old.....I went to Walmart and spent about $50 on all this, I got organic when it was available.

So then today I made my first juice and just pretty much picked a random one off from Joe Cross's website  www.rebootwithjoe.com using all the ingredients I had on hand.

Here is what I put in it........

1 cucumber, 3 celery stalks, 2 pears, and a handful of Kale

This is how much I got out of it........

It was actually a lot and I needed the small glass for the overflow (which I gave to my husband, who will also be doing the fast, but at a later date).

So how did it taste you ask?  My husband said it best.......warm and frothy.  And that's all I could think about the entire time I was drinking the glass, so it made my feelings toward it bias.  It could have been worse but it is defenitly not making it on my favorite flavors of the word.  I managed to drink the entire tall glass and I feel ok.  There is not that bad of an after taste so it is easily forgetable. 

Now I wait.  Wait for what you say?  Oh, well if this goes how everyone else first drink of raw veggie/fruit juice goes, I will be finding my way to lou within 30 min.  So we will have to see if my experience follows tradition.
