Have you seen the documentary "Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead"? If not, you need to see it. It is available on Netflix or on-line, I'm sure. Anyway, my family watched this and were inspired by the story enough to go out and purchase a Breville Juicer. We chose to commit to the 3 day "reboot" plan. |
| My Kitchen Counter - $125 for 3 days |
After shopping for all the veggies and fruit we began our "reboot" - www.rebootwithjoe.com
First day, feeling great and full with the "sunrise juice" in the am and Joe's "mean green" in the afternoon and evening. I must say even the dessert juices were refreshing. Day 2 began with the Carrot-Apple-Ginger juice followed by the "green lemonade" which was very lemony but satisfying. We really enjoyed the "ginger pear-snip" dessert juice that night. My husband reminded me we could supplement with nuts...thanks, we definitely needed to.
Day 3, I was looking forward to finishing this. Still enjoyed the "carrot-apple-lemon" juice in the morning and a "garden variety" in the afternoon and evening. We even tried the "pear pie delight" again. So good!!!
Here are some helpful hints...
*use a compost bag in the pulp bin for easy clean up
*be prepared for the cost, I spent $125 for 3 of us for 3 days
*supplement with nuts, seeds, etc
I will say I did feel energetic and lost a couple of pounds which I have managed to keep off. I will continue to use the juicer for healthy snacks and even to replace a lunch or breakfast. It takes some clean up but is worth it. The Juicing Bible is available at Costco and the recipes that I have tried are delicious.
