NOTHIN BUT JUICE
there comes a time when i have to say to myself…bri…put down the french fries. and all of those other delicious buttery things too. fall strikes hard every year for me and i am a crumbling carb monster. and then i’m lazy and bloated and fall asleep on the couch at 8pm.
so i am trying this juice cleanse that just arrived on my doorstep 5 minutes ago. i have had a lot of friends try and love these cleanses, but i have been a little sissy girl and too scared to try it myself. but i am going to give it a shot, starting tomorrow…100% fruit & vegetable juice 6 times a day in the place of meals…for three days.
i will admit, i was swayed by their packaging at first. and that #5 (apple, carrot, beet, lemon and ginger) does sound pretty delicious, doesn’t it? i am mostly curious to see if i can hang. the cool thing is that they have a “beginner” level cleanse, and i most certainly fit into that category.
want to try it out with me? i know i am for sure going to need some encouragement along the way. i’m hungry already. have you tried it before? any good tips for me?

Have you ever done Monavie? I really like that stuff. It’s pricey though, but definitely a health boost. I’m thinking of going paleo starting next week until Christmas. Something that will get me feelin healthy right before the holidays. Maybe I won’t crave AS MUCH sugar that way?

oh i find that so scary – i’m all about the wheat belly diet. don’t feel starved but don’t feel grossly full either – i find it’s the perfect balance.
good luck!

I have never done a cleanse, but have friends who have and loved it, and I am totally game—I just haven’t made the time for it. Maybe you’re the inspiration I needed?
Also, had to share this video about a couple that does an annual ‘Master Cleanse’, it’s pretty awesome: http://vimeo.com/32874537

good luck…I failed miserably with the blueprint cleanse-couldn’t handle the green stuff.

I did the Blueprint cleanse over the summer and I loved it. I thought it would be really difficult but I managed to go all 3 days without cheating. It’s hard not to think about food at first but I found that if I drank the juices every 2 hours or so and had lots of water in between it really wasn’t bad! I had tons of energy and felt great. Good luck!!

I’ve been thinking about trying blueprint. I heard good reviews but don’t know anyone personally who has done the cleanse…. just wanted to wait until school was over because I didn’t want be starving during finals week. Can you please let us know how it goes so I can make a decision to go through with it because it is a little price-y and goodluck!

Well done Bri! It’s a great move. Make sure you really take notice of how it affects you… more energy? more creativity? less cravings? It’s a great experiment to see the beautiful potential of wholesome food. Enjoy it… can’t wait to hear how you go!

I have done this cleanse before. Oddly enough you will feel energized and the #6 Cashew Milk is AHH-MAA-ZING.
Good Luck

Woah, I’d be interested to hear how this goes! I’ve thought about doing juice cleanses a couple of times but have always wimped out. Good luck!

I love Blueprint so, so much. Also the Cooler Cleanse. How long is the discount code good?

Their website does not work in Safari or Firefox, how frustrating, I’d love to look into this more!
15. rox | November 27th, 2012 at 12:40 pm
I’m SO DOWN to do this. I feel like this is just what my body needs right now. I’m looking forward to seeing how it goes for you!!

I can’t wait to see how this goes! I’ve had such a hard time getting the rest of this baby weight off. Also I am a self-proclaimed carbaholic, too.

How long will the offer code last? I want to wait until my next paycheck to get

I am definitely wanting to try this out… I have a juicer, but the ease and 20% off promo is making this way more tempting!
23. Sarah | December 9th, 2012 at 11:21 am
Will you be posting about how it went? I’d love to know!
Contemplating this, but I’m so worried about how it might affect me at work/during the work week…
