Juicing Forum

Anyone interested in gaining a head start on that New Year's resolution?

I'm a seasoned juicer with lots of info and experience to share!

Yay! Hi Doreen! We can use this thread to talk with each other throughout the cleanse. All my fruits and veggies are prepped and ready to go. I'll be beginning and ending each day with a little concoction that I make to help pull toxins from the body. It's also great for digestion and removing cellulite.

3oz water
2oz unsweetened cranberry juice
1oz aloe vera juice
1 tablespoon crushed flax seeds

I must admit that it's not the tastiest drink, but the results make it worth it! Do you have a favorite recipe? Between juices, I like to drink hot herbal tea with a squeeze of lemon. 'Daily Detox' by Traditional Medicinals works so so well. Looking forward to our juice feast!

Hi Doreen, you can find both unsweetened cranberry juice and aloe vera juice at your health food market (like a Whole Foods). Your local vitamin shop should also carry aloe vera juice. Here are a few links to amazon... http://www.amazon.com/R-W-Knudsen-Family-Juice-Cranberry/dp/B001O8MS0C/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1388112321&sr=8-6&keywords=organic+unsweetened+cranberry+juice and http://www.amazon.com/Organic-Juice-Inner-Fillet-Ounces/dp/B005P0SYWG/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1388112507&sr=8-5&keywords=aloe+vera+fillet+juice and http://www.amazon.com/Barleans-Organic-Oils-Forti-Flax-Supplements/dp/B009E5VSOE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1388112738&sr=8-1&keywords=barleans+forti+flax These are the 3 that I use and am able to find at my grocer.

I also like simple recipes! I use celery in all my juices because it carries the nutrients from the other veggies/fruits to our cells. My all time favorite is celery, cucumber, strawberry, and basil. So delish! If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask! I love having a juicing pen pal!!

Hi, it's 12 noon on the 27th here in Los Angeles, and I've just finished my first green juice of the day...

2 stalks celery
2 leaves red chard
2 leaves dino kale
handful of baby spinach
small handful of curly parsley
1 medium green apple
1 small bartlett pear
1/2 tsp of camu camu http://www.amazon.com/Tangy-Camu-Powder-Sunfood-3-5/dp/B0058ORKI8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1388174362&sr=8-1&keywords=sunfood+camu+camu (the healthiest, most concentrated vitamin c ever!)
the juice of 1 lemon

If you like cayenne pepper, try adding some into a fresh squeezed grapefruit juice. This revs up your metabolism and targets stored fat. This is another one of my simple and delicious favorites.

My stats upon waking this morning (I'm 5 feet 6 inches tall):
113.4 lbs
25.7% body fat
18.9 bmi

I'll weigh in again on the morning of the 1st. My goal is to lower my fat percentage!

Hi Doreen, I sure hope your juice fast is going smoothly! I went to yoga this morning and this afternoon I'll be going to an infrared sauna session. I love going to the sauna when detoxing. It's the perfect compliment. I think I may carry my cleanse into the new year and join the group that the administrator created. We'll see how things go. I'm eager to see if I'm moving toward my goal of decreasing my fat percentage!
