Will Power ...of plants

So I'm keeping it real - it is actually not too difficult.
Day 3 and I'm still on the juice wagon.

The hardest thing is cleaning up the mess from juicing and prep to make the juice.

I am enjoying the juices and still eating a vegetable meal of steamed vege at night with the family. I made a huge bowl of fruit salad too for the kids and I.

I need to pay more attention to detail in following the juicing recipes. There is so many different varieties. I just chuck in whatever. Then I chugg it down.


My juicer looks like this


I've had my Oscar Neo for 3yrs. I bought it to juice during chemo and I'm glad I'm using it again. It was a big investment in my health back then.

Then I got busy and lazy.  I ahven't used 1/4 of the features.

Truth be told I am probably doing more of this 10 day plan 

I have an idea that 5 days of juicing - 2-3 days normal eating in moderation then start juicing again for 4-5 days will work best for me.



Yes, my stomach rumbles and it took all my will power not to devour the last 2 chicken kebabs the family were eating last night.

Bread ...I didn't eat the crumbs this morning and my husband even asked me if I wanted toast. Luckily he wasn't toast.

Juicing 'Hump' day is half way over and I will see it through.

I admire your dedication! Pretty sure I couldn't do it. Hubster made an apple and watermelon juice in our imitation Nutribullet and it was yummy!

After I watched Fat, sick and nearly dead - I decided if that guy could do it for 60 days I could try 5.
Thank goodness I don't need to go 60.
Good on you, Trish! We have green juice most mornings and occasionally I'll have it for lunch too, but my belly rumbles just thinking about having juice at every meal! I bet your body is loving you for it, though!

I'm feeling it today Sammie. I did eat a big plate full of steamed vegetables last night.Less than 2 days to go and the numbers are going down. Finally.
This is probably not the most helpful thing to say...But I'm on the lookout for a second hand food processor and you won't beleive how many juicers I've seen in op shops and at garage sales!

If you see one like mine grab it - they are multipurpose - I can make noodles,nut butters in this - if I bothered to try lol.
Goodluck with food processor.
I've never made a lot of homemade juicers because the juicer we had was such a pain to clean!
I'm not sure how I would go on a juice diet though. I admire you for doing it!
