I hate to say this, but I'm going to have to call it quits for a bit on the juicing. I've loved the way I feel while juicing, I've loved the clear thinking I've been able to do, the lower blood sugar numbers I've been seeing by not eating processed carbs, and most certainly the weight loss I've seen. Its been quite an experience... but ... (ugh... I can't believe I'm typing this right now...) I can't take the diarrhea anymore! It makes sense, juice in, juice out! I've researched the internet and the green dense juices (what I eat most of the time) has this effect on some people.... I have a life that doesn't allow for constant bathroom emergencies!
I had a stomach bug last week that I thought was mostly to blame... yet my stomach bug is gone and its still here!... the last week or so I've veered off the 100% juicing ways and did maybe 75% juicing and 25% whatever real food that was relatively healthy/clean. I thought it would be enough food to help slow things down. Not so. Not enough. :(
I know this is gross... so its with some sadness that I end my juicing fast while my shorts are still clean!
I've learned a lot and I definitely plan to do it again... just for a shorter period of time :) maybe 3 day fast every 2 weeks or something? I'm still planning it out... right now, I just have to eat something un-juiced....
(Again, my apologies if this was too much information and more than you wanted to know!!)
