I'm 5'4" and weigh 133. I wear size 6 in Old Navy jeans. I can squeeze into the size 4 that I own, but they probably won't look good on me until I'm down to 125-130.

Hopefully I'm in from last month! Thanks for continuing to do this, it really does help!

Some of the juices I make are actually in the database, including the carrot/apple/ginger (my favorite) and the Mean Green. If I'm making my own recipe, I'll either try to find the "raw juice" in the database and estimate the amount of juice in my recipe, or I'll just log it as the whole fruit or vegetable. Happy juicing!

Sounds like a delicious, healthy breakfast. No worries!

I'm so glad all these experts who "know about science" are here to help!

Oh, you must be an expert. I'm sorry. My personal experience with juicing must be wrong. Consuming fresh fruits and veggies is a sure path to an unhealthy lifestyle. It's gotta be the lack of fiber in the juice that guarantees we'll be scarfing down McDonalds soon after we stop drinking that nasty, unhealthy juice. So glad…

So re-training your body to crave whole, healthy, unprocessed foods is going to cause us to put the weight back on?

6 Kale Leaves 1 Cucumber 4 Celery Stalks 2 Green Apples 1/2 Lemon 1 piece of ginger Juice and enjoy!

I have my doubts about how serious this question really is, but here's my answer anyway... I know our bodies do an excellent job of "detoxing" all by themselves. I view the detox as more of a "reset"....as in, I've reset my cravings and mental dependence on the crap food I used to think I needed. So I'm no longer pumping…

Thanks for the recipe! These look yummy :love:
-
Great job!

I'm surprised you haven't gotten a million responses about how " unhealthy" it is to do a juice fast! Lol! I didn't do a true reboot or "detox" but I did juice exclusively for about 2 days and have used juices as meal replacements for about a month now. For me, it was more about getting all those micronutrients into my…

^^^ This! I've been eating so much over the past week, and the weight is just melting off. I think my body just needed fuel for the fire!

I've never eaten the skin....too fuzzy for me! I would assume you would track the weight/ calories of the fruit after it's peeled, just like you would with a pineapple. I don't think kiwi skin could possibly weigh very much though, so I wouldn't stress about it too much!

I was just wondering this myself, and my numbers are exactly the same as yours... 132 with 7 more to lose (except I'm only 5'4"). I've decided to start raising my calories every week and see what happens. I was eating 1200 calories, but now I'm at 1300, plus I eat back my exercise calories. It feels like an experiment!…

With my oldest, I started at about 125 and weighed about 145 before I delivered. My middle child took me from about 120 to 145. My youngest took me from 130 to 150. So I only gained 20-25 pounds each time, and that included the baby and all the other "stuff". It is completely possible to not gain a lot of weight! I ate…

I'm currently doing the same thing....juicing in order to boost my micros. I went a couple of days wih only juice, but now I just replace one or two meals/snacks with my juice, and I feel great! You'll find a lot of people on here who call juicing a "fad" diet that is bad for you, but considering how great I feel (and my…

Bump for later!

Hey, mine is the same as yours! I went pants shopping today and bought two pairs of size 6 jeans! I already had some 6's at home from when I was this size before, but they didn't fit until recently, and honestly I thought the only reason they fit was because they were stretched out!! The brand new 6's fit perfectly! Yay…
-
Me too! Not my favorite thing to eat/drink, but I love the way it makes me feel!
-
Thank you for sharing your results! I'm on week 1, moving to week 2 after giving my muscles a day off tomorrow. I love seeing such great results, it keeps me motivated!
-
That's a great NSV! Congrats on all your progress!
-
I think many people on here can relate to this! I was in pretty good shape about a year and a half ago, but after some major life changes, I gained about 20 pounds. Like you, I didn't feel like the person I was looking at in the mirror was really "me". I tried many times to get back on track and start exercising and eating…

This sounds like a great menu! I never thought of adding carrots to the mean green, but it sounds good. Your morning drink sounds good too, since I like fruits in the morning but I still want the veggies in there. Hope your doing well! I'm still juicing, but I'm eating dinner and sometimes a small snack during the day.…

Hi there! I've had my juicer for just a few days, but I love it so far. I feel great and have tons of energy. Actually, both my husband and i both felt like we had a "buzz" after drinking our first green juice. I'm still eating some food in the morning or at night, but I only have juice during the day. I've noticed that I…
