What I learned in the past days:
- I love food
- I hate hunger
- vegetable-juices for fasting are disgusting
- hunger makes me nauseous (and the juice did not help)
- hunger makes me only think about food
- three days of hunger decreases your self-control immensely
For that last reason I quit my juice-fast yesterday evening around 20:30. I knew that when I would continue fasting for two more days, I would not be able to control myself anymore and go on a food binge (something I never do). I started with a ricewaffle with low-fat cheese, and have been eating relatively normal ever since. I really really really love food, and I’m never going to do this again. I do not see this as a failure. I tried, and I decided this is not for me. 
Just had a few small cinnamon-rolls (out of a package, but they’re pretty good, the boyfriend brought them for me <3, because he knows I love them and they were not there anymore when I wanted to buy some to take home with me, since you can’t buy them here), and a piece of milk chocolate with caramelized almonds and seasalt. And soon I’m going to have a nice cup of coffee *happy me*

I don’t think…no…I definitely could not do a juice fast. I’d rather just not eat.

But not eating is not nice in general, as I discovered
