Anyone else juicing?

What brand of juicer is recommended? I bought a Sharper Image juicer from Bed, Bath and Beyond last year but it does a crappy job. There's way too much juice left in the pulp. I'm thinking of getting a different one this year but don't know what to get.

I have an Omega 8004. Don't get a centrifugal type juices. The masticating ones have so much less waste. I have so little waste from my juices. It's always very dry pulp too. My juicer is a little slower than a centrifugal one but it only takes me about 10 minutes or less to make the juice. The time to prep veggies takes longer.

Another option is to use a highspeed blender and a nut bag. There is a great demo of this by Raw food Rene

Good luck all!

I am not fasting, but I have been drinking green juice everyday for two weeks. I like it and I'm having a blast mixing different veggies, and re-making salad recipes into juice. Today I had rainbow chard, kale, bell pepper, cucumber, anise, jalapeno, and half sweet red apple. It was delecious! Good luck on your adventure.

Totally thought this was about steroids... What a world we live in

I am into smoothies, not juices.
When i first started out i used more fruits than veg but now it is the opposite. Most of the ones i make these days i only use one fruit. I have found that carrot is a great sweetener. I am not a fan of using spinach in my smoothies though I will use if if I have nothing else. I like using kale, cucumber and lettuce.

Juicing takes work! The NutriBullet is more conducive to my needs.. quick & easy! I do a lot of protein smooties, which you can with the NutriBullet.

Started today.........our omega 8006 came in and we went and bought some produce and tried small one
last night and this morning made one and just had another.....I feel content.......drinking some water now...
so far the ingredients are
kale
spinach
cucumber
lemon
orange
apple
ginger
celery

this morning there was no orange.....as soon as payday then more veggies for more flavors...

I love my juice! In the summer I grew my own greens garden just for juicing. I want to add to it more this year. Also I buy large quantities to save money. If bags of oranges are on sale I buy two. I don't buy organic oranges but anything that the peel goes through I try to buy organic. You will find what works for you. I've had my juicer over a year and I use it about 4x a week and more in the summer. I first noticed changes in my skin. I haven't worked my way up to a cleanse yet.

Not sure if you found this website yet but check this out.

Great juicing plans.

Don't worry about your skin turning orange, but carrots are great!
Be aware of strictly juicing fruits, it will make you crave eventually. But if you juice greens always add apple to cut the taste.
I like tomatoes, cucumber and carrot together. Delicious, filling and refreshing.
I prefer to eat my greens for the brushing of my intestines out.
Good luck, you will do it!

Wow how bout just lose weight without dieting. Do something that you'll continue for the long haul. Eat at a slight deficit and enjoy real food. Its quite a concept I know! Doing fad diets like this will just keep you yo yoing and you'll gain it back and be right back at square one. There's no hurry.

i take creatine. does that count?

Yes! I love adding gingerroot, an apple, or orange at the end
