With everyone setting new years resolutions me and my friend decided to embark on a 5 day fruit fast to cleanse the body, loose a bit of Xmas body fat and build some discipline.
Now the rules are only fruit and water. With day 1 almost at an end, I can honestly say this is going to be one of the most challenging things I've done yet.
The fruit fast was inspired by Anthony Bova, author of the Spartan Health Regime. This guy does a 5 day fruit fast every year and also does 2-3 days a month!
I'm going to blog the progress day by day. Today has been considerably tough. It feels like our stomachs have been empty the whole day, we have headaches and we're getting ratty at each other (all symptoms expected bar the last). As a reward however, we both have experienced a huge increase in energy. Probably due too both an increase in natural sugar intake and the elimination of heavy proteins and complex carbs that take a lot of energy to digest.
Speak soon
Peace!
