Juicing - Recipe Request

I've recently started juicing and so far I've only been drinking the Green Detox Juice blend. I want to replace two meals per day with natural juices so if anyone has any recipes (with fruit/vegetable portions and calorie counts) that they can share, that would be great! Also, has anyone had any weight-loss success by incorporating juices into their diets? I'd like to hear about that, too.

Right now I'm drinking my rendition of Green Detox Juice (or "Mean Green" as some call it):

-Kale (4 large leaves)
-Spinach (handful)
-1 cucumber
-Celery (about 4 large pieces)
-2 Granny Smith apples
-Half of a lemon
-Ginger (1/4" piece)

    Do you have any recipes that require bacon juice because I'm all about the bacon juice. That adds so much flavor to food.

    I don't have any juice recipes but whatever you do, just make sure you get enough protein and enough calories. That is critical to success. Also, make sure you get enough fiber as it's a critical element for your digestive system. In fact, I would just use juicing as a supplement.
