So everywhere I look with my juicing diet research suggests different time frames for your juicing diet that are "healthy" for you. I myself am going to continue this for as long as it doesn't effect my health with my maximum time frame being 100 days.
Although being aware that a juice fast/ diet does have an effect on your body that is very positive however it makes you feel horrible for the first 1-2 weeks. Such things as headaches, stomach aches, pains in your lungs, and muscles, I have even started to break out with a weird rash. This is all part of my body drawing out and getting rid of the build up of toxins from my body with this juicing diet, these things are normal so don't be discouraged.
I think the minimum time anyone should juice for is the time it takes for all these side affects to pass so you know the toxins are out of your system, this varies from about so about 30 days.
You may need to work up to this and don't be discouraged if you fall off the wagon, when your friends and family are around eating all the glorious food your so used to, it gets hard there is no question, even walking near food stalls has been hard for me ( I had to talk myself out of buying seaweed sushi the other day, it looked so good!) but just get back up and keep going, maybe just add a day or 2 to your fast and remember its an great attempt no matter what, next time you'll make it the full 30/60/100 days without hiccups. But you have to start the journey to make it a success and if you've made it this far its a success of itself.
*Tonight we are going to restaurant birthday dinner and as it would be self torture for me to not join in on the festivities we are celebrating with food I am having a vegan/vegetarian (depends on what I can get at the steak restaurant) option. I will just add days to my fast. This is what works for me, I am happy to sit at the dinner table with my juice, but I can't take it with me to a restaurant and I won't miss out so that’s the decision I have made so I don't get discouraged and completely fall off the wagon. And this is not going to be my last juice fast just a really amazing first attempt.
You may decide to take some juice with you when you go to a restaurant its up to you.
If you can make it through you 30 day juice fast with no bumps your awesome and I want to hear your journey here! But just remember its what works for you no one else, not even those articles you read on juicing as I don't here in those articles how hard it can be, and trust me it can get hard as we are creatures of habit and habits are hard to break but never impossible. This is your journey no one else so leave aside others opinions, ideas and judgment and go for it! I have faith in you!!
