Bout To Start This Juice Diet, How many Have Done One?

[BronxBomber]

The one I have is comparable to the Champion. I have a Hurom. I ended up drinking alot more juice then what people on the raw food forums did cause I wouldnt feel full. My suggestion is like someone said do a salad or eat and apple.

Now if you want to go in. Grab some almonds and some raisins. Will kill your hunger.

Someone talked about the amount of juice yielded and if you get a cheap juicer your pulp will be wet and you miss alot of juice.

If you are on a budget I suggest getting something that does smoothies cause you wont be a waste where as them $70 juicers are not good for 'real' juicing. There is a cooks blender at walmart thats like $40 I think my chick got me one and its great. Makes individual cups. When I did it for the summer I burnt out 2 juicers in 2 months. Said let me go in foreal. Way better juice way more juice.

Wont lie this has made me be like damn. I was in the best shape of my life 2 summers ago.

Oh if you have a local farmers market go there Im telling you you will get a bag of apples for like maybe $3-$5 that you can use for the week.
Here in Jville

Carrots bag is $1
Celery $1
Cucumbers 3 for $1
Ginger - cheap lol

I use alot of apples as a base cause never had any sugar issues. By the way one of the reason why juicing is so good cause your body doesnt have to break anything down. This is why its highly recommended for the sick cause your body doesnt have to work.

Anyways maybe we should get a group together and do it up.
There is a 30 day challenge one one forum I visit and people get amazing results.....

Bare in mind this is raw food site so they are eating nothing processed. You will get even better results just juicing.

This is the raw before and after forum

First get your vitals checked by your doctor.

I've got a juicer and it can be fun the fresh juice is great.

This!
I have one as well. I don't juice all the time but it's refreshing when I do.
I did however just change up my diet and I lost 45 lbs so far since March.

Why dont you use a blender and just add water, you'll get more of the intended health benefits by blending.

 

[SamSneed]

peace, thanks to everyone for their info.

i got to do this, i'm 31 and need to make a change.

shit in 08 i was fit my job location was 1.5 miles from my home so i was on a bike, after i got the promo i was moved and had to drive, not good.

friday i'll get something, my gal told me i should just eat them raw let my mouth do the work. i told her i'd do that at work but at home i wanna juice.

 

[shoubie2003]

been considering going on a juice fast myself. picking up a juicer in the am. but my question is 150.00 a good amount to spend on a daily juicer?
and im tryng to stay away from solids during this fast so will ensure be a good substitute for protien?

 

[BronxBomber]

Well there are really only a couple options. Cheap joints (THey all the same, Jack Lalanne included), then the others brothers were posting. If you going with the fast juicers any from walmart will really do.

People have misconception about protein meat high in protein until you cook it

Almonds and nuts are great sources, also all that protein that we so call need is false.

[SlimKid07]

Good shit Sneed. I think I'm gonna join you next week.

[ShortyCumStain]

I'd be mad as hell at myself if I were to gain 50 LBS.

 

[UNSEEN]

i just started two days ago and felt a little boost no lie..bet i skipped a day cuz it's my birthday and ate sloppy and got my drink on..but yeah..i'm juicing it up for now own and would like to get some recipe's..peace...

 

[ScottyPiffen745]

Where can I get some more information about this? Benefits of a juice diet, what juicers to buy, what to eat daily, workout routines I could do with it, recipes, etc.

Juicing sounds like something I could get into because I really don't like eating, especially in the morning, but give me a straw, something to do and make it taste good and I'll drink any fruit/vegetable concoction.

 

[charlie dark]

did the juicer thing and it was a waste
took like a dozen apples to make a cup an a half of juice
u can use all that pulp to make other things but i could never get into it

got a blender for like $30 at target and been havin fruit and veggie smoothies ever since

I don't mind making smoothies, but you're right about the amount of fruit needed to make a juice..
I'd rather save myself the hassle and just eat the fruit and drink a glass of water...

 

[jivanbrahman]

A good website for juicers is discountjuicers.com. The guy on the website healed himself from a lifelong skin disease through a raw diet. He also does a video review of every juicer on the website.

 

[cozmic33]

i finish fasting for Ramadan (day 25) next week and i don't want to get back into the habit of eating unhealthy foods...i think i'll try this after all is said and done

 

[mike123]

You must have bought a cheap juicer or something. The Jack Lalane is only like 250 watts.

I just got a Breville 200XL ($99) and it juices the shit out of apples. I use Gala and Granny Smiths.

i was using the Breville JE95XL
another bad thing about them juicers is u cant really put leafy greens in em

like i said before save ya money and get a blender

I don't mind making smoothies, but you're right about the amount of fruit needed to make a juice..

i aint mad at ya
i do it cause i could never find the time to eat the amount of fruits and veggies that i've been eatin now if i wasnt makin smoothies

Juice Recipes
ABCs
2 Asian pears
2 Apples (Choose any variety!)
2 Beets
2 Carrots
1 cup Cabbage (choose any variety!)
6 handfuls Chard 3 cups
...

This sounds good and I'm about to go pick some of this stuff up from the store but, the protein in these drinks is horribly low. Gotta take protein supplements to ensure you're getting enough.

 

[SamSneed]

so the first day went fine, i didn't eat anything for breakfast as i'm still "full of shit". got a juicer at walmart, black and decker for 30. hit the store for some veggies and fruit(didnt get much like 18buck worth.

didnt taste bad,what i got made about 40oz, the pulp still had juice but i ate it. what i'll do is juice(veggies) for dinner and just eat fruit raw during the day.

i don't feel hungry nore does my head hurt, i'm pumped to do this so as long as i stay pumped i'll do fine.

i'll be at my gal's all weekend, so that will be hard, she can cook her ass off.

one hard thing was today i stopped by my dad's and he was bbq'in and thats my fav.i didnt eat so thats how i know i can do this.

peace, if i can i'll give an update this weekend.

baby carrot juice is fuckin good

Enjoy your fiber-less sugar water!

Juice, nigga. You're better off eating the fruit and vegetables. Google how much sugar is in a glass of fruit juice. At least in its original form the soluble fiber would slow its absorption.

 

[TheFuser]

I've done liquid (juice, fruit smoothies, water, tea) fasts a few times. They're rough (mentally). It's mind over matter though. You can do it! It's easier to do when you have someone else doing it with you.

did you read my posts?

 

[SamSneed]

Im doing fine, not grouchy. When i get hungry i just eat some fruit. My piss looks like Apple juice and it doesnt have that piss smell. Ive been farting my ass off my gal just laughs at me

 

[M3MD]

Did Raw food diet for a summer best health I was in. Juiced mostly.
Even went out got a $300 juicer slow juicer less oxidation.

Was much cheaper then eating SAD - Standard American Diet

Went to Farmers market once a week got like $30 worth of fruits and veggies and was good.

Good luck brother Im starting back juicing this weekend. Muuscle density went up, energy went up, and much more clarity in my life.

Sex life was retarded to, friends was like damn what u been doing. lol

Ginger, Lemon, Apple was my joint.

Remember Fruits in am - Energy
Veggies in evening - healing

Peace

Do you stay full and satisfied with this diet? I would LOVE to do something like this but I get really hungry and irritable if I don't get the right amount of food in my system. Especially, if I'm properly exercising.

Ol "Givin it Ya Best Shot" on the Toilet lookin ass nigga...

 

[doublejizzle]

I got the Breville 510 900 watt and that thing will eat through whole apples like nothing. I just hate cleanup. Like 1-2 minutes to rinse and clean the fruit/veggies, 1-2 minutes to juice, and then like 5-10 cleaning up.

Great thread. Good luck Sneed. Just finished watching the Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead docu and i'm inspired to give it a shot.

 

[AgentCreed]

anyone know of a juicer that can handle sugarcane sticks?

 

[code_pirahna]

Yo I m adding more green juice to my diet also.....
don t juice though because juicing doesn t allow the fiber to be part of the fruit and vegetable and you re left with a lot of sugar......

Instead blend it all together....I m doing that using my Blendtec.....

its going well
