We have been doing pretty good with juicing! We did end up buying a new juicer so I guess my first piece of advice is to buy the best juicer you can right off the bat. We bought the Breville BJE820XL Juice Fountain Duo Dual Disc Juicer from Amazon. We haven't used the smoothie disc yet but I plan on trying it out later this week.
We have been juicing the majority of our meals but eating full meals every few days. We are both feeling great! I've lost 10# and the hubby has lost more than that - he can't remember off the top of his head right now. Isn't that crazy how us girls can tell you to the tenth of a pound exactly how much we've lost?!? Or maybe that's just me and I obsess about it too much! I'm absolutely thrilled with how the weight is coming off. In the past I would be lucky to lose a pound a week and I'm averaging almost .5# per day and I feel fantastic. The first few days were rough but I think that was mainly the caffeine withdrawals. There are some juices that we absolutely don't like but we have found a couple that are real winners. Here are the recipes for the two we really like - this makes two servings each:
Green Citrus (Green Juice)
4 Oranges
4 Apples (I like to use Fujis)
4 Handfuls Spinach
Orange Dreamsicle (Orange Juice)
1 Pineapple
2 Oranges
3 Apples
6-8 Carrots
ps...the hubby found his weight loss - 13.1# as of October 31st. He did have to go out of town for a week last week so he wasn't able to juice much and he hasn't weighed himself yet. He looks thinner to me!!
