3 Day Group Fast starting on Monday 5/6
on: April 26, 2013, 07:36

Call me crazy but I'm starting another 3 Day Group Juice Fast on Monday, May 5th. This should give people plenty of time to prepare and get organized. Let me know if you plan on joining me for this fast! I'd like to get some new people in on this fast so please, sign up and post in this thread to let me know you'll be joining us!

I was 212 lbs before I started juicing, today I am 185 lbs and feel better than I did 10 years ago!

I would like to join this fast. I must let you know that completing a 3-Day fast has been difficult for me. I'm going to give it my best effort. I really need this.

I would like to also join this fast. I have had alot of problems which they think are related to IBS. I have read we should stay away from raw vegetables, do you think this will be a problem with juicing them? I really want relief for my digestive track. I have been off all meats for almost 8 months, still eat fish and do feel better but think I need to take it to another level. Saw Joe Cross's movie which spurred me on-consider myself a pesce-vegetarian

Corpusmae, I don't think this will be much of a problem for you. It would be great if you would join us! It should be easier for you since you haven't been consuming meat for a while now. Make sure you read up on everything and get prepared to start juicing next Monday! I'll be here if you have any questions Corpusmae!

Okay heading out to the store to buy some items, got my juicer on Friday. Made some fresh apple juice on Saturday morning. Want to experiment alittle this week so I can be ready to go. Just want to be out of pain. My doctor suggested I do a liquid fast for 3 days as I have been very bloated, wondering if it dairy. I am going to start slowly but surely so I can be ready. So excited to begin...I know I can do it with the support here. Here's to Health!

I'm getting very inspired! I think I'll watch Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead again for more inspiration. I really want to be successful on this fast. If he can do it for 60 days, surely I can do it for 3. :) I've been following the Eat to Live lifestyle since August so I don't really have cravings, just need the mindset to do it and I think I'm getting there.

@Corpusmae For a great beginner juice try mixing some oranges and carrots. I usually do about 2-4 oranges and 2 carrots. It's a great drink and tastes almost like a carbonated orange soda but healthy :)

@lesfleurs Keeping yourself inspired is the best way to stick through your fast! 3 days is a just that, 3 days! You will go back to eating food again, you will get healthy, and you will gain more confidence in yourself for doing so! I'll be here doing the fast right along with you!

Thanks for the advice. Shopping done, actually wish we could start sooner but will start with the oranges and carrots and allow myself one meal for now. I really want to do 60days but want to set myself up for success. Called my son, he's a vegetarian and really knows his stuff, said he juiced for 2 weeks and told me once I get past 3 days it's pretty easy. He is going to join us as well but may not start till the 9th, waiting for payday...I am so happy because health wise I have been with a side ache all day...ugh...mindset is important. just like when I quit eating meat, it was a mindset and do not think about it, never realized it was going to be that easy...the difficult part was just finding the right food in this crazy fast food world. Kamakazi, just do it!!!

Hey, Justonjuice... do you suppose I could switch the blueberries and grapes in the breakfast juice (on the 3-day plan) for an orange and a couple of carrots?

It looks like Fat, Sick, and nearly dead got one more. I saw that and then watched Forks over knives. I am convinced.

I am going to be trying recipies for now so on May 5th I am ready to go! I had a juice of carrots, celery, and apple for lunch and it was so good.

I am worried about not chewing and what effect it will have on my brain. I am going to have to see but for all of my life a meal meant chewing something.

@lesfleurs, yes, you sure can switch the blueberries and grapes. You can switch out anything you want really.

@corpusmae Your son is right, after about 3 days it's a breeze!

GM, here I go with the lemon drink and orange and carrot drink as I prep for our 3 day aiming for 7 days or more. Have a good day everyone!

Skylark, if chewing is a psychological thing then here's a little trick for you. Get some sugar free chewing gum and pop one in after a juice. I knew someone who did that and it worked for them. The reason I suggest doing it after you juice is that you don't want a minty fresh taste in your mouth right before you have a juice.

Corpusmae, lemon with warm water works miracles in the morning! It really does set the stage for the day. Glad your joining us on the 6th!

My breakfast juice was delicious. Wasn't hungry at all - need to drink more water though. It took alot more time to do than I planned because I ended up adding a mango and apple to get more juice. Lemon water was great. Going to plan ahead tonight for tomorrow. Thanks for the support! Did have alot of energy this morning:)

I like the gum idea. I think I might try that as well. I'm feeling very positive about this fast with all of this support. I can't thank you enough!

Awesome Corpusmae! It does help to prep your meals the night before by putting each meal in a ziplock bag. That way all you have to do in the morning is run them through the juicer and clean. How did you like the mango?

lesfleurs, you're welcome, just keep your positive attitude and after three days I bet you'll go on to do 7!

GM-Loved the mango but then it is my favorite fruit. Warming up my lemon drink, ready to juice. Have a great day- did buy some pure protein from the health food store to supplement once I get started. Love the posts- have a great day!

Lesfleurs, that's great! Another great tasting juice is apple/carrot/celery. If you're into something spicy, check out last weeks post in the first page of the 3 day juice fast by JuicerJohn. He has an awesome spicy drink that is loaded with flavor! Along with the recipe he posted some pics.

Zadude, welcome to the forum and I'm glad to have you juicing with us! I haven't used yeast during a fast but I have used it. I wouldn't recommend using it during a fast, just rely on the juice! It would be a great addition if you needed that extra protein though. I'll have to look into that and compare it to the protein isolate.
