Juice Detox Day 3

For breakfast today we had our Detox Special, for lunch we had our Beyond Detox, and for dinner we had the Dreamy Detox. Between breakfast and lunch we had to drink the whole H2O detox, which is a liter of water mixed in with a little fruit juice. So we had to make and drink five juices today! It felt like non-stop drinking!

Beyond Detox

Dreamy Detox

We both felt pretty bad today. I feel like I have a really bad cold, which I think I might actually have at this point. Peter feels like his allergies are a lot worse than usual. By the end of the day we wanted to eat something so badly. I just went to bed early so that I could wake up and eat breakfast. 

I'm proud that we accomplished all three days of this juice detox though! That being said, I don't think we will ever do a detox for this long again. I feel like depriving ourselves just made us want to eat unhealthy foods even more, now that we can. We will keep juicing along with eating foods though and I think we could replace a lunch or breakfast with juices and smoothies in the future. I will definitely be taking off a few days from juices and smoothies though. The thought of drinking one right now is incredibly unappealing.

We felt so full today! We were so surprised! We could barely fit all of the juice into the day. We had plenty of energy all day and felt pretty much the same as normal. I felt a little shaky before lunch, but I think that was because of the sugar.

Juice Master's Detox Special

The first two juices of the day were the Juice Master's Detox Special and they were very filling. It made two full glasses for each of us. We had to drink half of it and then wait until we were hungry again to drink the rest. The Detox Special was thicker than juice and much more like a smoothie than a juice. I thought it tasted really good! I was expecting to not enjoy andy of the juices, but it was actually yummy. I just had to ignore the taste of the bell pepper. The avocado made it very creamy, but didn't change the flavor.

We had our breakfast at 10 am and made lunch at 3 pm. Once, again we couldn't finish the whole juice at once. We even cut the amount of avocado in half to make it not as filling. I made my "linner" at 6:30 pm because I knew I needed to fit so much more liquid into the day, even thought I wasn't hungry. Linner is like a snack between lunch and dinner. I had to modify mine because I am allergic to pineapple. So I used an orange and 5 strawberries instead. I chose the orange because I thought it would have a lot of juice and be similar to pineapple juice and I chose the strawberries because they have many of the same vitamins and minerals as pineapple.

H2O Detox

The H2O Detox tasted like watered down juice, which is essentially what it is. It was easier to get down than the Detox Special because it wasn't as thick.

Beyond Detox

We made our last juice around 9 pm. For dinner we had the Beyond Detox juice. It was also fairly thick, because of the avocado, and sweet. We couldn't really taste the spinach.

So far it seems to us that this is definitely do-able for anyone. If you are hesitant to try this detox because you think you will be starving, then don't worry! You will be full all day, at least for day 1...
