Day 0: THE FALSE START

Let's get the vital stats out of the way:

Cigarrettes smoked: 3+
Reason smoked: 1. sisters are annoying
2. eh...i had one already what does it matter
3+ see above

Weight: 181 lbs

Activity:

1. Woke up at 12pm
2. Juiced (cabbage & carrot 9 oz)

3. Worked in the garden for 1.5 hours

4. Did some work on the computer
5. Drove Rosie to Maplewood
6. Drove to Wegman's to stock up on fruits and veggies
AND HERE IS WHERE I STRAYED!!!!!

I didn't really prepare to be away from home today. I had just enough veggies to make the 9 oz. of cabbage and carrot juice then I was going to go shopping during the day to stock up. Then my sister threw me the curve ball and we drove about 45 minutes away to Maplewood. After meeting up with an electrician in Maplewood and getting everything straightened out there we headed home around 6 pm. I had already started to feel hunger pangs at 3 pm. So we decided to go to Wegman's on the way home. I had not been to the one that just opened near us and I didn't know where it was. I was overtly hopping that they would be so fancy shmancy as to have a fresh juice bar, but no. My mouth literally watered at the prepared foods area. I swallowed and kept moving. I walked by the cheeses. I walked by the breads. We were almost at the produce section (which they cleverly hid! Then, I hit the bar of all things salty-sour. Olives of every variety abound. Hummus, tzatziki sauce, stuffed grape leaves. And I was lost.

I went on a binge. I bought my produce for tomorrow. As for today all I can say is that it was a false start and made me realize just how mentally and literally unprepared I was for this fast.
