How I lost 30lb in a month.. And still going!

Andrea, on November 14, 2012 at 1:38 AM Posted in Fitness and Health 0 38

Ok, please no bashing or telling me how unhealthy this is (you would be wrong). I just want to share my story how I did this. I Juice fasted. That's right folks! Only consumed freshly juiced veggies and fruits. It was all completely suggested by a Doctor (I work for him) and under his and 2 others supervision. As a Nursing student I spent 6 months fully researching this before attempting. I have never felt so amazing and energized in my life. I reversed my PCOS and am on the path to healing my thyroid. And the 30lb was all completely fat. I did a body fat analysis before and after. I did not start on this to lose weight, it was just an added bonus. I did this for medical/fertility reasons. If anyone has questions on it just let me know!

    I have always wanted to get a juicer...and that's how you are suppose to do the juicing is with medical supervision. Good job, and good luck on you health journey.

    Woot woot! Congrats! and keep up the good work if you still plan on doing this. I have also thought of doing this, especially because I have a serious addiction to Coca-Cola ( I won't tell you how many I drink a day and that # has increased because of the wedding planning stress). And I need to think of a better way to deal with the stress and quit my addiction. And it wouldn't hurt to be healthier and lose a couple pounds! so here are some questions I hope you can answer:

    How much did you pay for your juicer?

    How long did it take for you to lose 30lbs?

    (you can choose to answer this question as it might be slightly embarrassing) but did your stomach get "flushed" or did you get the runs after a couple of days of juicing?

    what are some downsides that you experienced while juicing, if any?

    SO excited to see others are interested!!

    I will put a few bullet points on here, but for those of you who want the in depth "how to" feel free to email me at (******.******@*****.***) and I will send you a whole write up I previously did for my brother, when he started his. There is a lot of science and aspects to understand. But this is so worth it!

    - starting weight 231lb 30days later 200lb goal:145lb I am 5'8in

    -I have Polysystic Ovarian Syndrome/Hashimato

    -I consumed 4-5 24 ounced juices a day(mostly veggies)

    -I also consumed: Dandalion Tea, Nettle Tea, a super smoothie, Pure unfiltered Cranberry Juice and 150-200ounces of water(sometimes more)

    -I have 2 juicers a (Breville) cost me $100 and a $40 Wagner I got from amazon. I use the Wagner at work and Breville at home.

    - I did not get the runs, although I did have regular bowel movements. Nothing painful. It was a continuos but slow flushing.

    End result: down 31lb, PCOS reversed, Acne cleared, Very healthy nails, mental clarity(was having trouble with) and overall sense of well being.!

    JW, but is the juice fast temporary or will you do it indefinitely?
