Anyone here ever done a juice diet?

Yeap. Yesterday was kinda tough... I wanted to kill someone....

Ya... food is a hell of an addiction.......

Curious, are you a nutritionist, or a doctor? And aren't you worried about liability delving out advice without seeing the patient in person first?

I'm not either. I just happen to know a lot about this subject, and the way the body works (in specific functions *i.e. a lot about a little, and a little about a lot). Wife has a degree in nutrition, mother in law is a doctor, and the last roommate I had I helped him study to become a doctor... Oh, and a background in Biotech helps a little (just schooling, no actual job).

I am not scared of offering helpful advice. If someone is allergic to something like lets say, tomatoes, then I expect them to be smart enough to not put tomatoes in the juice.

Nice man. You been tracking your weight? As of this morning I'm officially an even 14lbs lighter than I was Monday morning.

Nice! I weighted myself yesterday morning. Will see if there's any changes tonight.

It's best to weigh yourself at the same time each morning. Trying to weigh yourself in the morning and then again at night might make you pull your hair out since you tend to gain a few pounds during the course of the day as you take your water weight back on. I get up in the morning, take a squirt and then weigh myself. Same routing yields consistent results.

Also, this is an internet forum. People can take my word for what it is, I hope they do their own research on the subject also. I will not lead anyone on, I have nothing to gain here other than the satisfaction that I get to help some fellow members. I am offering out so much, because I have done so much of the research already, and I'm very much so a person that looks at the "facts", and then who published the "facts" to see if they are actually legit. The bad thing about this subject, is that you can find as much negative stuff on the internet, as you can find positive. You actually have to look up the sources, and in many cases, sources site sources that site a couple other sources that end up being just someone's opinion. There were a few times when the list of sources was so long (I think it was with specific enzymes that help your body process a specific amino acid) that I just gave up and looked up another one on the same subject.

The best time, is when you have to go shopping for new clothes because what you have is too baggy, and you look ridiculous.

yeah people read and put to use information from the internet at their own risk. the people posting it don't retain liability, especially when not an expert. you're just giving your experience nothing wrong with that.

i dont want to go off topic here (which means i sort of am). Ive never researched an all juice diet, but it sounds interesting. OP after you try the juice diet you might want to research intermittent fasting (Fast and Feast). I did a 16hr off 8hr on for 3 months and lost 60lbs. Good part is you get to eat food

i used this site: leangains.com for most of my resource information. awesome job at wanting to stay healthy!
