7 Day Juice Fast starting 27 April
on: April 26, 2013, 12:05

Hi all, I am going to be starting a 7 day juice fast tomorrow. This will be my second time at juice fasting. The first time I did it for 5 days.

I originally got into juicing after watching Joe Cross's movie Fat Sick and Nearly Dead. It was the most amazing thing. My whole attitude changed after watching it. I got this hunger for living well, healthy food choices and the confidence that I can do it. If you haven't seen it, I totally recommend it.

However over the last month or so I have been going through some stressful things in my life and I lost my way. Started to go back to old habits and making all the wrong food choices. I have been making a half arsed effort at juicing but realised that I need to find that hunger for healthy eating and making the right choices again.

Although from my last effort I have found that I find it difficult tolerating the green juices. I know they are the best ones for me, but I cant seem to find a combination that is palatable. However, I will keep trying. I will not give up.

So here I am. I will try to post everyday to let you know how I'm going. I will update my weight each day as well.

All up I need to lose about 25kg (55lbs). Sorry, I'm Australian so I work in kg not pounds 😀

If anyone would like to join me, please feel free.

Duckie, thanks for posting and congrats on taking the steps necessary to reach your goals!

A good way I use to find different combinations of juices that I enjoy is to juice each thing individually into it's own glass. Then you can start to mix and match a little bit of each to come up with something you truly can enjoy. Start by mixing two things. Try mixing oranges and carrots, taste it, and one you get it to a good mixture that you like add something else and try it out. This way it's fun and it gives you the ability to see what works for you and what doesn't. Just keep it simple and you'll find new combinations that work for you and your tastes.

I'll be here checking up on you throughout your fast so if you have any questions or just need some more motivation I'll be here!

55lbs (25kg) is definitely an achievable goal Duckie, you can do this!

"Willpower is essential to the accomplishment of anything worthwhile." Keep this in mind while on your fast!

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

Thanks JOJ, that is a great hint.

Day 1 and I'm going well. Added half a small pineapple to my green juice and it makes a definate difference. Quite nice with a bit of a tang.

A little pineapple can sure go along way in a juice. Other things you can add in small amounts to make a big difference are raspberries, pomegranate, or grapefruit. Try a little bit out and see what happens
