juice: day 1

[lilamp]

- drinking all day leads to a lot of bathroom trips.
- i was hungry, but less so than expected, especially since the juices are only 1070 calories, and i usually take in over 2000 when i'm not counting.
- after drinking the cashew one, which is last, i was really thirsty for the rest of the night, which i found strange, since i'd been, you know, drinking juice and water all day.

but are the sugars and carbs in juices ok?

[lilamp]

depends on what you mean by "ok"? ok for what?

well i thought you were doing this to lose weight and N is avoiding juice so i was curious, but then i re-read what you wrote and this is a cleansing phase? how does that work? just curious.

yeah, the juice thing isn't really to lose weight, though with the calorie deficit i probably will lose a bit. it's more just to reset my system and get out of the habit of eating crappy shit.

i dunno how much it really does for you, but a lot of people seem to like the juicing thing, and i've never done any sort of fast before, so i figured why not! at the least, i'll have three days of not eating any processed foods or artificial anythings.

my SIL is big into juice plus supplements though the research on it seems mixed
