It definitely has a "grass" feel to it. Reduce the amount of kale and throw some jalapeño in there. Much better.Quote:

So, after reading this thread I've been having a pint juice at Whole Foods every morning this week and switched from red meat to ground turkey breast. Dropped nearly 5 pounds without fasting.
So I started today. I went the Jer route got some Bolthouse and some Naked from Wal-Mart until I get a Juicer.
Im 6'4" and im at 310 I would like to be 225 .....here we go
Awesome! Let us know how your progress goes.Quote:

believe it or not if you sit and do the calculations, and shop the naked sales and such, juicing yourself comes out pretty damn close in terms of cost. you have to buy the bulk naked bottles but its shocking how close it gets. the juice diet isn't dirt cheap.Quote:

Try something else man. There's lots of things you can do and I've done a few now and some are meh and some are really good. Start off with a few simple things that have few ingredients that you know you like and then expand from there. Taking notes will make it easier to recreate or avoid making the same mistakes. The skittles recipe that Spidey posted earlier is good to go and much sweeter than those green style ones. I also made the 2nd Spicy V8 recipe I posted and it was alright. Not amazing. I think it needed more tomato but that's part of this process... trial and error.Quote:

If the juice is super healthy but you can't stand it and last only a week as a result then what good was it?Quote:
