Obviously the first week is hell but what about after that? Will I really be getting enough nutrients to live actively? What about protien? Just eat almonds? I was under the impression that you should only have juice.
Hey, Ruth! So this is for detoxing and weight-loss purposes. If you want to do a true detox, this is a great way to go. Your pumping your body full of raw medicine essentially and from the sound of it…you can be pretty active after the first week of hell 😉 Erik was running 7-10 miles on only juice only and working three jobs, getting less sleep and feeling alive and energetic. I’ve only done a 5-day and by day 4…you’re on a natural high. It’s incredible. Obviously 101 days is insane, but he was doing it for a weight-loss competition. I would say a 5-day or 10-day is a great way to Reboot! Let me know if you do it!!
My husband needs and wants to lose weight. But it’s so hard For him. He loves it hen I juice and he said he would juice to help him lose weight. I figured I would do it with him and start next week. We are planning on discussing it more before making it official but I believe he will feel so much better. I love Freshly Grown btw. Used your video to break my chicken this evening. THANK YOU!
Ruth, you’re so welcome! Glad you digging the posts and they are helpful. He will benefit from juicing, if you wanted to detox and still ‘eat’ you could always do lean proteins, juice as much as you can throughout the day and raw foods (salads, produce, nuts, smoothies, etc.). This would be huge for weight-loss and his health. Next week I’m gonna take on a 5-day detox challenge eating this way, ya’ll should join!
I looked over the Express Detox and it looks amazing. I think he would love adding some things that you can actually eat! he is doing SO good though. The only thing he has eaten was raw fruit (apples/oranges) and he has turned down offers for cooked, unhealthy food! I’m so proud of him. He definitely has the right attitude. Also, I have been working out every day and it’s totally fine! I’m so happy.
Ruth! I am so happy and excited for you guys. Love that you are rockin’ it and you both are feeling good. Tell me more, how’s it been now? Still strong? How do you feel?
So I’m confused, you used only one juice recipe the whole time? What did you use specifically in that recipe?
Hey, Sam. He used different juices the whole time making sure to use more veg than fruit in his juices.
