Hi Erika,
I'm on day 39 and have been experiencing a lot of ups and downs. I've found that doing yoga has really helped to centre me and put my moods back on track when I'm feeling low. Also I've begun the Holosync program - www.centerpointe.com whi…

- About Me:
- its funny, every time a questionnaire wants me to fill in the blank, "about me" i never know what to say, my mind always goes blank. OK so i guess i will drop a few thing down about me. i love my job as a hairstylist, i get to chat and socialize all day with a whole bunch of different people. i love being creative when ever it is possible. i enjoy yoga, working out, and doing anything that involves having fun. I'm actually really new to the whole computer thing, even though I'm quite young i just never got into it, but as time goes on i aspire to b a professional blogger like Philip.i am also a raw vegan, ive been raw for 9 months and loving it, and i love preparing fun and creative dishes. now im on a roll if i sit hear long enough i can keep going, but i wont lol.

- soaked prunes:
although i was not constipated, i tried this myself.
--put pitted prunes in a jor with purifed water about one-half inch to an inch above the prunes. i used 10 prunes.
--close the jar and let them soak overnight.
option1
--pour off the soak water and set it aside.
--juice the prunes, add the soak water and drink.
OR
option 2
--pour the soak water and prunes into a blender and blend for a few seconds.
--drink up.
I did option 2 with good results.

- hey erika: how are you today?
i'm in a good flow post-jfeast now. the first couple of days with the prunes were no problem. i ran afoul on day three when i ate a bit of tabouli. that was a real mistake. i made a quick correction, reverting to a modified juice feast that includes green smoothies, pulpy juices, prunes and dates. i use targeted supplements like spirulina, chlorella, maca powder and dulse. i started using these foods before the jfeast.
mentally, i'm extremely cautious and truly optimistic about this living foods lifestyle. i'm almost two years into it now. by cautious i mean i really listen to my body, and resist the temptation to return to the "usual" foods -- including conventional produce. i take my ability to sustain this mode day-by-day, while continuing to find more and deeper ways to restore and promote optimal health.
for constipation, have you tried saoked prunes? i'll find the remedy and send it to you. it's effects are more concentrated and faster-working than eating dried prunes.
i've been fortunate to have had no constipation throughout my 114-day jfeast. no enemas either. i consciously chose not to incorporate this practice in favor of using the flood of nutrients to coax my body to do its own work. thank God, it did. i've had an average of 2 to 5 movements daily. i purposely do a combination of things to keep my elimination system(s) working.
i'm a big tea drinker, and i believe the healing properties of tea are essential for detox. try a premium oolong tea and greeen tea. use two tea bags at a time in about 16 ounces of water.
wheatgrass juice powder can help relieve constipation. i use this twice a day in my juices.
regarding gas, that could be the result of something you're doing versus what you're not doing. are you using pears and or spinach? are you able to use organic produce?
you're doing a super job going for it.

- erika: hello here. please, please excuse the delay in my response, i've been away from the site for about a week. seems like eons. just caught up with your question and your blog. you're doing such a great job sharing your experiences. hate to read about your fall, but how is your jfeast going overall now? i have some ideas about what causes gas if you still would like to discuss it. i've gotten great support here, too, so i make it a point to help others in any way i can. glad to hear you're still on it.

Kierra said… - Hey! I experience just the opposite regarding the Enema situation (LOL)...it takes multiple sessions before water is clear. Also if I miss a day of enema fun then no BM's at all. Also, I am beginning to favor vegetable juices over sweet fruit this week e.g. oranges. I am going to switch to less sweet tasting fruits e.g. berries and see how it goes.

WildRose said… - Hey there,
How are you feeling? This is the end of day 3 for me, and physically I feel great but have had some habitual desires to eat something. But overall I can't complain! This is my first GJF... although I've done the Master Cleanse a few times and juiced on and off for years.
Are you going for 92 days?

- Blahhhhh. I was 8 or 9 days strong (master cleanse) and spent the last 2 days eating to point of wanting to puck =P I'm going to go back to the master cleanse in the morning and this time stay on it for 2 weeks and then move in to the juice from there. I find the weekends so much harder. At least during the week I have work keep me busy. What do you do when you find it getting really hard?

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.
This group wants to assist and support each other by exchanging ideas on what tools we can use to realize
each of our goals especially the ones that worked for us personally.
