Juice Fast day 12 of 60 - garlic overdose disaster

Day 12 of the juice fast (12 of 60).
January 5th, 2012. Shijiazhuang, China

** note: the audio is a bit out of sync....sorry **

Most of today was fine. I had good fruit and veggie juice.

I did the stairs at my home and office twice for a total of 66 flights up and down. I also rode the bike for 30 minutes, and did my pull-ups.

For dinner, however, I told my maid to add 2 pieces of garlic to my green juice, and she heard 2 heads of garlic. When I checked on her, she had already added about 7 pieces. I stopped her, but it was too late. The juice was already putrid. I struggled to get it down, and managed to finish ~85% of it, but it left me feeling terrible, and I just crawled into bed and crashed at around 8pm.

Why didn't you throw the garlic concoction out and start over?

Don't suffer! What you're doing is hard enough.

I'm in awe of your commitment.

Again, my q. is, why 60 days?

As Scarlett said in Gone with the Wind..."Tomorrow is another day!"

Hope it's a good one.

lots of love.

I should have thrown it out. I was tired, lazy, didn't want to waste all that juice, and was trying to make a point about drinking not for taste but for the health benefits......in retrospect....it would have been best to just start again

I did that too with the garlic... It's potent stuff. For me was very very difficult to drink, and i too felt like vomiting. I dont think ill ever put garlic in my juicer again!!!
