7 & 3

Well my hubby has lost 7 lbs in four days and I have lost 3. I'm not really trying to lose weight as much as try out this fad of eating and drinking nothing but fruit and veggies.



Here is what I have learned thus far:
  • It is very good for you to eat plenty of fruit and veggies with every meal, everyday! HOWEVER, I feel hungry, tired, and irritable when I juice. 
  • Don't over-use spinach, lemons, or limes when juicing because they can overpower the flavor as an end result.
  • Weight yourself the starting morning (naked) and then do not get on the scale until the week is over. Weighing yourself a final time the morning of the last day.
  • When and if you need "food" eat a grapefruit, orange, watermelon etc. so that you are still "pretty-much" on the juice detox diet. 
  • Drink a lot of water. It flushes your system and keeps the hunger-pains down.
  • Continue your exercise program. Or start one as it will help you lose weight and give you something to do besides think about food.
  • Get plenty of rest and go to bed early [with a full glass of water] so you do not lay around thinking of food.
Still have not heard from anyone else about their juicing experience. Am I the only one???
