Juicing Forum

I have a couple of questions........how long do I drink the senna tea? Do I drink it every night of my juice fast or do I drink it just for the first week? Ive read different stuff but not sure how long im suppose to drink it. Also should I still be feeling extremely weak? I dont have the strength or energy to do anything. I feel like stopping my fast but I dnt want to feel like im giving up. I didn't know id still feel like this well into day 6.

Am I still suppose to be feeling weak tomorrow is day 7 for me

between 4-6 juices a day and about 10+ bottles of water a day but I feel extremely weak can barely move around.

Thanks for the "soup" recipe. My husband and I are going on an extended fast starting the 29th of July. The soup will give us some variety. I noticed you said we shouldn't add salt. Would Braggs Amino Acids be ok, or do we need to stay away from that as well?

Thank you....that looks wonderful!!

JOJ, that Soup looks delicious......i could dive in it wink......

stumbled across your site completely on accident and thought I would stick around! 😉 I am always searching the internet looking for inspiration and motivation to keep me strong on my fast. I am a little behind you guys on my 30 day quest as I started on the 2nd of July so I am now on day 14. Love the feeling of being able to be part of a group so we can all encourage and guide each other on our journey to healthier lives. Sounds like you are all kicking some butt! The suggestion about taking your juice and making it into soup... awesome idea I am going to have to try that one of these nights once it cools down.

I'll dig out the recipe and get that posted so you can try it out. It's really good and helps when it's dinner time and you have to sit down with the family.

Rachel, read through the site, it's loaded with some great information. Read this article for some great juicing tips.

I'll be here if you have any questions.

Hi Irene thank you for the welcome...

I'm on day 14 of my fast. It hasn't been easy because my stomach has been upset since day 5. I don't think I will be able to go past the 30 days if this doesn't go away soon. I committed to 30 days so I am going to reach that goal no matter what. I haven't been able to leave my home because of my stomach and this is getting frustrating. I did a 7 day fast once before and the same thing happened on day 6 and 7 so I stopped my fast. I will reach my 30 day goal this time tho. (Here's hoping it gets here soon.)lol

My juice is usually the same. I will add a peach or grapefruit every once in awhile but I try to stick to mostly greens. I wish to loose weight so I don't want a bunch of fruit in my juices.

here is the recipe I use:

one granny smith apple
one cucumber
2 carrots
3 celery stalks
3 leaves of romaine lettuce
handful of spinach
1/4 lemon

Thanks Irene, happy to be here... day 16 and going strong!!
