Guilty

So tonight I broke my 21 day juice fast with a cucumber.
And I felt guilty.
Guilty of eating.
Of course it was necessary since it would be quite impractical to have continued while in Mexico, lugging a juicer and Vitamix into a different country.
And it may also be unnecessary in general in that I’m 1.5 pounds away from my Cancun goal weight with 2 days to spare.
And yet …
Somehow having a cucumber –– ie, solid food –– felt incredibly decadent.
I’ve been happy and hyper-functional on pure vegetable and fruit juice (supplemented with an all vegetable protein powder;  email me if you want the details before I write the bestseller about it) and so going back to “real food” again felt silly.
I’ve been living in a mindset of “I can do this easily and … FOREVER!”
But all good things –– even a pre-Cancun juice cleanse –– must come to an end.
Thank God I had the wisdom to take videos and photos of myself 30 pounds heavier to “prove it” for the inevitable bestseller I must pen about this.
Well, given that everything I do is for Belle’s college fund, maybe now I don’t feel so guilty after all …
