Hey Girl , Hope you don't me asking a couple of questions!!I Want to start the juice fast in january, but i'm not sure what recipes to trust and how many times a day you have a juice, is it 3 juices a day to replace 3 meals? i'm currently 5'4 and weigh 156lbs , i wanna get that down to 126 , Do you reckon i could do that in 30 days ish? I only wanna do it for 30 days, 40 days maximum because its my 25th birthday in february, so i know i'll be drinking and eating cake etc haha!

Hey! its possible to lose that much weight, but more likely if you fast for 40 days instead of 30! 3 juices per day is the minimum you should be drinking, but its probably better to drink 4-6. When it comes to recipes, experimenting is key. Start off with base ingredients like apples or oranges and build your own recipes from there! good luck :)

You look really GREAT by the way! I look better with clothes on but then again I gave birth to 3 kids so I think I'm going to to have to tone up before I can take my shirt off lol.

Thanks so much!! I can't wait to see your before and afters!!

Is it hard for you to control how much you eat now? I have a lot more self control but it's still a battle everything I put something in my mouth. I have to actively think "use self control."

Yes 100%!! I thought it would be so easy going from eating nothing to just eating small amounts but it is for sure very difficult

Need advice please!!!!!?

So it's been 2 days since I started eating again, and I've already gained back 2kg (4.4lbs)!!!! I am freaking out!!! I've still been juicing most of the day and then only eating beans and fruit for dinner, and ive been going for long walks burning about 500 calories each and the weight is just coming back so quickly and i am freaking out and i dont know what to do! :( :( please any advice?!?!!????????!!!!

At what week(s) did you lose the most weight? I'm just wondering because I'm about to start the fast after this week and I'd be doing it two weeks here at school and then continuing into when I'm home for Christmas but I at least want SOME results before I go back and see my boyfriend (like my little double chin going away and maybe some belly fat gone) I'm also moderately physical during the day. Is it possible? :( -feelinghopeless-

For sure it's possible! I lost the most weight in the first 10 days, and i lost 5.4kg which is 12 pounds in just the first 10 days! After that the weight just came off slowly! So there will defs be some results before you head home! Good luck :)

What is the countdown app you're using? It looks nice, so with my luck its not for android anyway.

It’s just called “Countdown (with Facebook)”! If you search “countdown” in the App Store, it’s the first one that comes up. That’s the apple App Store anyway

I don't mean to ask this question to offend you like below in your mini rant, but can you tell the difference in your body from the weight loss? (I hate using this word), but are you 'thinner'?

For the people that see me on a day to day basis, its probably slightly noticeable, but for the people who only see me occasionally it would be very very noticeable i'm sure. I can see a HUGE change in my body, and I definitely am 'thinner'. I also can feel the change in the fact that my clothes are either loose or don't fit me anymore! I'll be posting before and after photos tomorrow so you can take a look for yourself. Thanks for the question!!

[juicefastfor30days]

I understand what you're going through with the weight loss question. I'm sure people mean no harm, you (and a lot of other people) are still very self conscious. Your body may have changed, but your mentality on how you look at yourself has not yet. I'm sorry if that's not how it is, but that's what I take out of it myself. You still should be very proud of yourself! xoxo

Thank you so much for this message, I appreciate it so much!! You're so right and I agree with you completely! I will definitely look at the situation with a more positive mindset :)

Just taking this in.. Also I went shopping and I went to try on a shirt so I grabbed the medium and the large size, and it turned out I needed the small.................. Oh the joy

[juicefastfor30days]

I am considering doing a short (3 days) juice cleanse. I've had these uncontrollable cravings for everything not healthy and I am hoping to curb them. Do you have any tips? What were your first 3 days like?

Hey! Thanks for asking me! I'm going to be honest here - my first few days were a breeze. I didn't have any withdrawal symptoms like headaches or hunger pains, and I found it very easy to transition to juicing. Having said this, I am aware that it's very rare for this to happen and I just got lucky, seeing has a didn't even have a healthy diet to begin with. You will most likely find the first few days a struggle, but give it a go and I'm sure you'll be able to do it! Good luck!

Is it just me or..?

I HATE when people comment on my weight loss or ask me if i've lost weight! I know they do it in a positive way, meaning to compliment me, but it just makes me feel super embarrassed and self conscious, like i was fat and ugly before the weight loss. Whenever people ask I just wish I could say "No I haven't lost weight", but obviously I cant! Does anyone else have the same issue, or have any suggestions as to how i can answer whilst changing the subject or something?! :(

Day 29 - 5th December 2013

Cant believe tomorrow is the last day!! :D

I accidentally pulled an all nighter last night (juicing defs doesn't help with my sleeping problems as everyone says it does), so today just feels like a continuation of yesterday! This just means I will sleep SUPER well tonight, which is good as it will be my last night on the juice fast! AHHH!!

For breakfast I made:

- 2 oranges - 1 apple - 1 cucumber

For lunch I made:

- 1 oranges - 1 apple - 3 kiwi fruits

i literally do not care about vegetables anymore, im so close to the end ive just given up lol. this juice tasted nice but it was so sweet it kind of made me feel sick afterwards!!

For dinner I had:

- 1 orange - 1 apple - 2 kiwi - 2 carrots - 1 cucumber

[juicefastfor30days]

I hate that I didn't have the confidence to tell any of my family or friends about this fast because now I cant share with them my amazing results and how happy I am! :(

Day 28 - 4th December 2013

2 dayyysss...

for breakfast i had:

- 1 apple - 1 orange - 2 kiwi fruit - 2 carrots

For lunch i had:

- 1 apple - 1 orange - 1 cucumber - 2 celery stalks

For dinner I had the same :)

I've run out of apples.. oops! I guess ill get some more from the supermarket after work tomorrow to last me the next 2 days! 

Today I didn't do a single minute of exercise, and i barely drank any water :( I just got lazy.. I did drink 3 large cups of green tea though which is supposedly a good way to increase your metabolism but we'll see!

[juicefastfor30days]
