Hi Steve,

I, too, think you should make it a 30 experience, if that. In the larger picture, what is important in life? Sticking with the juice feast or experiencing the connection with people you care about and love in life?

We live each day one day at a time. Every moment is important. Why make each day so unpleasant for not only you but also your loved ones?

Perhaps the next few days will be eye-opening, but if they are not, and you do not feel a big positive change, I think you need to reassess why exactly you are continuing this experiment--which is what it is--an experiment?

If you had been experiencing amazingly new developments in your clarity, insight, etc., continuation may be worthwhile, but rather it sounds as if you are becoming enervated. I haven't read anything during this trial that makes it appear better than the raw-food diet.

I am curious about one thing: if one of your children were undertaking this experiment, how would you counsel them? What behavior would you like to model for them in this situation?

Kudos for sticking it out this long and sharing your experiences with us.
