My Juice Fast Didn't Last...

...But that's only because I woke up one morning and decided I wanted a big beautiful banana smoothie. As I have always honoured  listening to my body, I did exactly that. A few days prior, I remember feeling as though I would never eat again! There were some strange emotions doing the fast, and if I feel compelled to do another, then I will. At this moment however, I am enjoying eating again.
Primarily, my days consist of bananas ( although I have never been able to eat more than 15 in one day). I know many people can eat loads of bananas, but I am content with about 3-4 medium size ones in a smoothie with some ground cinnamon, a couple of dates and water. I find this very very satisfying.
I usually like something salty (as most of you know) and will eat tomatoes that have been sun dried by me, mixing them with some fresh tomatoes and will chop some artichoke hearts with this. I finish this dish with  cucumber  spaghetti which I shave with a peeler. This is a very delicious meal for me, and although I know artichokes are fermented, they are very satisfying in this meal, and one day if I feel the need to gradually cut them out, then I will but for now- they're great. Especially if one is transitioning from vegan, to a more raw fruit based diet.
As I am not an eater in the morning, I usually start my day with a warm herbal jasmine tea. After consuming this, I usually do not feel the need  to eat for a couple of hours later.

Many of you have noticed that I haven't been as regular as I perhaps once was on youtube/facebook/social platforms, and this is simply because I felt the need to take a step back and focus on creative projects I am working on. 
Thank you for your understanding!
Peace to you all
