Been doing a juice detox for 17 days and lost 28 pounds

05-28-2012, 02:42 PM

also, so far i'm down 9 lbs and on my 5th day. seems like a healthy weight loss on a fast. pretty sure a lot of that is water weight, even though I've been drinking roughly a gallon a day. i'm not extremely obese tho [pic] most people don't even think i'm fat, but i'm probably around 20-25% body fat

I'm on day 9. set out to do a 10 day fast, but the last couple days I am CONSTANTLY hungry. Days 4-6 and most of 7 were fine, never hungry. But yesterday and today I've been very hungry. I even drink about 24-30 oz of juice trying to fill up my stomach and body with nutrients. Within 30 minutes i'm hungry again. Starting to think my body is telling me "eat something for gods sake!"

I'm all set up and have been drinking juice the entire day today.

It's going fine, I get hungry but just drink juice and fill up on Water and I'm straight.

Music has helped me keep my mind off solid food and the nay sayers in my family.

What are some of the things you do to keep your mind off eating?

By the time I'm past a week, I'm thinking I need to be just outside you feel me? Go out and go for a walk or play basketball w/ my cousins. Maybe go for a long drive but gas [pic].

Are you doing any strength training? When I get off I have the urge to do some light weight and high reps in my garage just so the muscle I've gained since January doesn't totally go away through this Fast.

I also decided to Write a Journal of my daily experiences. I'm not really into diaries and !! but it's not too much different than discussion forums so why not.

The first 3 days were the toughest. Its not even that I was extremely hungry, its just that habit of eating was tough to break. The first few days I made plenty of juice and kept myself full from juice and water. After that, food was out of my mind, unless it was set right in front of me or I caught the smell of something. I avoided tv too, I never realized how many commercials are geared towards food, and that !! looks good when you havent eat for days. I also stayed away from strenuous exercise. I played golf a few times, but thats really it. other than that I just had it in my mind that I was not going to eat. I realized it was better to isolate myself. Last weekend I was out at the bar with friends and there was food and drinks all around me. That was tough. Good luck.

Oh I kept a journal too. Going to post it after the weekend.

Day 3, down 11.8 lbs

This is getting pretty easy.
The urges for food are lessening and I'm getting used to to not eating solids.

06-03-2012, 04:24 PM

I got a homie who has been doing this for about 2 weeks, and he told me that the only solid food he eats regularly is raisins and almonds, just so his body can still digest solid food.
