I am doing better and seeing the strong pull of using food as a comfort, has controlled me so long. It doesn't need to be more than a bite of something but it often leads to full meals far more than I need. Today I will get my juices into me soone...

Tomi, Your words were very helpful and really let me know that it is ok and I am continuing to move toward success in this. I agree that the magic hits and I want that for me. I know I can do this. That bit of food I eat is emotional it isn't any...

Michele - Thank you for the support - my delay in responding was needing time to take in your words and really know that I can try and reach out. I didn't think this would be hard but I must be working through those words in my head that still sab...

Hi Karen, First of all - I know how overpowering is the compulsion to continue with the old patterns of eating and thinking. I think sometimes that there is a magic ingredient of thought/intention/commitment/timing/desperation - something that set...

2nd Day

I am doing better and seeing the strong pull of using food as a comfort, has controlled me so long. It doesn't need to be more than a bite of something but it often leads to full meals far more than I need.
Today I will get my juices into me sooner in the day. It can easily be noon by the time we get up, feed the horses, clean stalls, do my enema, shower..... Then the end of the day after not eaten early enough in the morning I am more apt to eat. That has been a long time pattern. I am juicefea… Continue

Doing better

I have been struggling for weeks while juicefeasting. Each day taking in a bite here and there of food whether something cooked or raw my family is eating. Well I am doing better each day especially if I drink more and earlier in the day. I have been doing enemas daily and the parasites leaving my body are amazing and surprising to see with all the past fasting I have done. I am thrilled though and know how healthy I am becoming. I am such a perfectionist that although I am seeing results, if I… Continue

This has been a struggle to commit

I have struggled for 3 plus weeks to stay on the juices only all day. It may be other raw foods I want that I am making my kids or cooked rice which they still eat. There seems to be something that pulls me away from the goal of completing a juice feast. I have done 30 day fast before and committed to them well. If I eat foods other than juices and maybe one salad a day I gain weight quickly.

I feel frustrated. Although I am juicing most of the day the foods I am eating seem to just blow it whe… Continue

3rd day

I am doing well overall JFing but the nightmares and strange dreams are bizarre. I see it as detox. I am getting my juices started way to late in the day and if I was away from home would cause me to grab food due to hunger.
I will continue to read and gain all of your wisdom. I feel really good with all the bloating and edema that I get from the 7 foods that cause me grief but I crave when I am off the wagon and not raw. Swim suit looks great for the conference in a couple of weeks. I really li… Continue

Starting my first long term juicefeast

I am looking forward to the support and great need for help from this group, in order to succeed in this goal I have set for my health and spiritual journey (100 days). I have struggled with cooked food addiction over the last many months even while eating raw and juicing as well. It was a stressful situation that has now ended that caused my justification to eat out. I believe this feast will help remove those cravings that I am giving into each time they hit. My children and I have been sick w… Continue

Not feeling called to do a full Juice Feast? That's ok, neither am I. David Rain suggested I do a Modified Juice Feast based on certain aspects of my health and life. You don't have to follow any particular plan to do a Modified Juice Feast.

I was reading a book on juice fasting and it suggested that for long term fasts that nut milk could be beneficial for protein. Don't know if I buy it. It said that with short cleanses it will just make you want to eat solid food , but with cleanse...

There are many reasons why people are overweight – stress, lack of exercise, lack of knowledge concerning correct nutrition, over-worked, laziness etc. But I believe one of the most potent reasons for overeating is emotions. It is a well-known fac...
