Juicing

Anyone have good or bad stories about vegetable+fruit juicing? I'm on day two , kind of cheating though.. I've decided to have one baked chicken breast or piece of salmon per day around 4pm.... I need the protein and energy having a toddler lol... I'm going to do 10 days and see how I feel.

It takes A LOT of determination. I bought a book off amazon for like $9 and it had a lot of helpful information but its been about a year so I have no idea who wrote it or what it's called :-/ I had a lot of fun with it, I originally wanted to do 3 days and my husband and I got into competition mode and I did almost 5 days. I thought it would be super easy but it is really hard! We watched a lot of you tube videos for motivation & insight as to what to look forward to and what we would experience and that was fun. My husband lost 14 pounds and I lost 19. He did 3 days and I did 4.5. I really want to do it again but I have to wait until after I deliver and done breast feeding. Good luck!!

I just looked it up and the book was called juice fasting & detoxification by Steve meyerowitz (some of the stuff seems a little out there but it did have a lot of good info!)

Thanks! Oh my God it makes mes soo excited knowing you lost 19 in 4.5 days lol, we've been watching documentaries on Netflix about juicing and I have a few apps on my iphone for different recipes.. I'm really determined to do at least 10 days but like I said, I'm going to have half a piece of chicken breast a day so I know I won't be losing as quickly.

We were pretty hardcore with it lol. I went out and bought a $200 juicer so I wast about to allow myself to cheat, I just kept telling myself that I have my whole life to eat I could make it a few days without chewing. I would have loved to go for longer but it's something you can transition into anytime you want to really. We mainly did it for detoxification, body cleansing & weight loss. If you stick to it you can easily lose a pound a day. I figure if I can't do 10 days, I can break it down & do 3-4 days at a time and just eat healthy in between. And fresh juice is so amazing! We still use our juicer!
