Cherry~ are you doing enemas? Your not putting anything solid in so it makes sense that nothing solid is coming out. Go to juicefeasting.com for more info.

I would love to see, if anyone has them, before and after pics posted here on the board. I think I have a few myself. I will see if I can locate them. Photos are always inspirational.

Thanks for starting this group Burke!

Love juicing and increasingly curious to hear everyone's take on the subject.

So, I try to juice during the week, for as long as I can ( usually "cheating on the weekends, unless I plan on being total social recluse, lol. Which actually ironically I feel would be worth it given how great I feel whilst in a fast. However,

First, Does everyone find as I do, that it becomes increasing difficult if not impossible to maintain given so much is surrounded by food in our culture, even when you would entirely stay the course if on your own? It also becomes quite hard to socialize; (with friends and even worse in dating) what I find even worse is people trying to push their eating habits and lack of comfort ability on you....? Has anyone come in contact with this?

Secondly, so, the long juice fasts people... are you just juice for all that time or juice and smoothies? I find I can only juice fast for so long, a few days, before I have to break for a fruit or a salad, then I feel I am back to square one.

How do you do it?

Thanks so much for your take and, as always, I remain, juice fully yours. ;

jessica, i incorporated smoothies in my feast, like my juicer is ghetto, so it will not juice certain things, i make alot in the blender and take some stuff out, but for the most part i leave it in. so i will do pinapple and spinach or apple and lettuce, like that, i also drink clear broth and teas like ginger with honey.

Great video, Burke! I want to start a juice fast but I am having so much trouble finding the right time to do it. I know that the right answer is, if you really want to do it you will make time, so maybe I am just a little nervous.

If I want to juice fast, do I have to do green juices everyday? I like plain fruit juices better and I feel like if I could do some days on just fruit it would be ok.

I am excited about being a member of this group! I will try to help support and encourage everyone! Thanks!

krose, if you go to globaljuicefeasting.com, they have loads of info there, they are the ones that created the 92 day juice feast. but the recommendation is 2 pounds of greens a day and one stalk of celery, to this you can add what ever you want, as long as you have 1 gallon of liquid a day you will be fine nutrition wise. i don't follow this exactly and i am not dead, i have not had greens in about two weeks because i was getting tired of it, so switch it up.:)
