Day 40 - My Juicing Fast Video - How I Juice For Health

[kayomichael]

i've been juicing for a month now too. Maybe I should do a video...

I thought that much fruit (sugar) would curb the weight loss but apparently that is not the case. I usually stick to 1 apple and 1 lemon with my celery, cucumber, carrot, kale, and ginger. That's enough to make it palatable. I find the cucumber to be over powering as well, I'll try peeling it next time, thanks!!

Have you tried any other vegetables and found it appetizing? I tried fennel, broccoli (good) and cabbage (bad).

[sweetgirly64]

Cool video! btw my aunt applied this fantastic diet known as: Impact 790 Diet and decreased 6 kgs within a month. I don't remember the exact website just Google it.

[Cahulawassee]

Way to go. ("Good on ya"). I am currently on day 6 of my juice diet. I feel great. Lost some weight.

Thanks for this video.

[Wolvve]

looks delicious 

[CCNYCA]

I recently watched, Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead. After doing so, I began researching videos on juicing. You offer very clear explanation of steps. It is amazing how much weight one can loose. What is the average cost that you spend on juicing per day in american dollars?

[seanmchughinfo]

pls realize he is focusing on presentation. Just grab the veggies you bought from Kroger yesterday and jam them into the juicer. As you go you will learn which skins you need to cut off. I have been doing this for about a month and a half and the results have been extraordinary. I juice vegetables and fruits separately expecting vegetables to be gross and fruits to be okay.

Don't worry about buzzwords like detox. Just add the juice.

[ladyof38]

Enjoyed this video, I like seeing how others do their juice fast, and congratulations on sticking to it for so long, hope to be doing the same very soon. Could you tell me which brand of juicer you use? Mine is a good one but has a narrow top for putting in the veges so everything needs to be cut up real small, I like the wide top on yours.

[carolitea]

can I drink water in detox diet?

[Drbarbaralane]

Thanks so much! I am trying to get started. this was encouraging.

[DragonMasterJon]

how many of these do you drink a day?

[missyclone]

@BlueBROWNPRIDE you are not supposed to do it for every meal. U eat other food and do juicing for maybe one meal a day.

[BlueBROWNPRIDE]

ive just started juicing for about 5 days and i feel hungry still after 2 cups for breakfast 2 cups for lunch and 2 cups for dinner is that normal and will i get used to it or not

[dildildidldil]

How many of these juices do u drink daily?

[dildildidldil]

Did u say 20 ounces is about 6 meals?

[AmericaNeedsWeed]

fuck those stickers

[chiranpun1]

Hey! Have you tried - fast abs magic (google it)? Ive heard some interesting things about it and my brother in law got beautiful 6 pack abs and lost lots of weight with it.

[TheChubbyKid]

That's a lot of acidic fruits. You need more veggies, This recipe isn't bad for a mid day kicker, but that is all. Also if you read your juicer instructions, it says to turn fully on before inserting.

[puttim1]

The skin is very important and is full of nutrients , you should really keep the skin on atleast the cucumber

[HenriettaHippo2011]

it was such a lovely green, mine is always a really dark green,

[FaMoUsLaUrEn528]

How many a day ? or is it just one in the morning ? respond asap please

[Gtrplyr1]

nice vid man, I myself am just getting into Juicing.. This recipe seems tasty :)

[maffia440]

Dude lemon and lime isn't alkaline based they acidic

[h84you]

@maffia440 lemons turn alkaline in the body when they are metabolized. Most fruits and greens turn alkaline in the body.

[Polterclock]

The movie documentary "fat sick and and nearly dead" brought me to this video. If you haven't watched it yet i highly recommend it. Including yourself overwhelmingtraffic. You can view this movie on Hulu.com

[Ferrilove]

Nice video! Well I got a question..When you finish and lose all your wanted overweight, and start eating healthy foods again..dont you like gain it back? Thanks

[Mgustine]

I love watching your videos! I'm into day 15 of my 30 day juice fasting experience. I might extend it if I feel like I'm still benefitting. I'm doing it more for overall health then weightloss but I already feel like a new and improved person. My one question is, how many ounces per day of juice do you consume? I'm drinking about 60oz a day plus water. Thanks for the inspirational videos!

[RemedyOcean]

Amazing :)

[dallas75205]

I agree with MrSupasexi - Breville states that you should have the motor running before you drop any fruits or veggies into the juicer - otherwise, you can ruin the machine.

[dallas75205]

FYI: the skins have the most nutrients.

[nzava54]

How many of those do you have in a day?

[transitionalphase]

Thanks so much for showing us how you juice. Great variety. It was like a salad drink. Plus, I love that cutting board. And thanks to Louise for the compost reminder. :)

[overwhelmingtraffic]

@transitionalphase Thanks for that!

[MrSupasexi]

1. you shouldnt stuff your juicer that much and 2. you should turn it up to full speed before you put stuff into it

[overwhelmingtraffic]

@MrSupasexi There is no one way to juicer my friend whatever works is good. But thanks for dropping by and taking the time to comment.

[SGardner11]

@overwhelmingtraffic actually, i have that juicer, it tells u in the instructions not to do it that way. its bad for the motor.

[SGardner11]

@overwhelmingtraffic but i understand that ur doing it that way for the video, otherwise we'd just hear the motor and u not talking

[Farrah747]

you should take the seeds out of your apples.

[overwhelmingtraffic]

@Farrah747 I never worried about it frankly, my juicer is powerful enough to handle them and I never had a seed in my juice from memory.

[Farrah747]

@overwhelmingtraffic It's not that, consuming too many apple seeds can cause cyanide poisoning. you consume amygdalin every time you crush them. I am unsure how much it takes to really make you sick but, I would be careful. :)

[thoughtchallenge]

@overwhelmingtraffic Apple seeds contain cyanide.

[marleymarl0]

Firstly great video. My questions are where do you get your fiber from? What health benefits have you noticed? Lastly, how long are you going to just drink juice every day?

[overwhelmingtraffic]

@marleymarl0 I suggest you check out my "channel" email for full results (weight loss and health). Basically a LOT has changed. Blood pressure normal, cholesterol normal, massive weight loss, asthma gone (to name a few things). For the juice fast I didn't have much in the way of fibre. This is generally ok for a specific period of time. I am no longer juicing as I went for 56 days only but am still doing well after the juice fast. Appreciate your support!

[SamuelinDetroit]

Jay Kordich, the Father of Juicing, says that the oil in the skin of most citrus is not good for you, except for lemons and limes, which are different and good.. Although the rind (white part) of citrus has a lot of nutrition. Try juicing a orange with a rind and you will never go back to regular juice.

[overwhelmingtraffic]

@SamuelinDetroit Thanks for dropping by. the only reason I didnt juice the skins of lemons and lime is they were WAY TO STRONG (for me anyway). Yes the white part of orange is nice, I did do that when I remembered :)

[nvthao]

Thank you for posting your vids :) i dont mean to repeat the question, but how many times a day did and how many ounces do you drink in a day? and do you drink one cup per morning, afternoon, and dinner? jw. thanks.

[overwhelmingtraffic]

@nvthao I had 3 drinks per day, each 16-20 oz (500-600 mls). I had one in morning, at lunch time and dinner time. Some days I would miss a lunch one purely because I was not hungry. Hope this helps.

[ZeroTemp]

This Vid gave me an idea, I think I'll buy a citrus juicer. I've been avoiding citrus because peeling would take too long but it sure looks good.

[overwhelmingtraffic]

@ZeroTemp yes it is very nice tasting, I have to say.

[ranius]

Awesome Videos! I'm just starting too look into juicing so I've been looking up anything I can. I stumbled on your videos and I'm really excited to try your juice recipe here also. I'm trying to learn as much as I can but what do you do for protein, did you go the entire time on just juice and no protein?

[overwhelmingtraffic]

@ranius Thanks for dropping by, I appreciate it. I try and discuss many of the big issues in my videos so feel free to watch them to find out most of what you need to know. Regarding protein did you know pound for pound vegetables have more protein than meat and dairy? Meat and dairy = bad (I talk about this in my videos as well). So you are not going without anything, on the contrary you are gaining more by a juice fast. hope this helps and thanks for your kind words.

[MsToy734]

If you don't mind me asking, what type of juicer is that you have there? I purchased one yesterday and attempted to juice this am and it seems that it simply cut the items up and they ended up in the "left over" bin. I'm going to return it today and try to find another, but I am willing to purchase online. Thanks.

[overwhelmingtraffic]

@MsToy734 Sure, I have a breville fountain (Australian name). I think it's the breville fountain plus in the US. You could try cutting larger pieces and see if that helps? Also try a lower speed setting and see if that would help. But many people I know use this juicer so it's probably worthwhile.

[MsToy734]

@overwhelmingtraffic Thank you. I purchased the Jack LaLane Express Juicer...and it pretty much cut up the spinach and kale I put into the machine and provided no juice. There is only one setting...so I shall return it in the morning and try again. Thank you for the information. It seems like most people love the Breville juicers...so I will price those. Thank you again.

[overwhelmingtraffic]

@MsToy734 Hi again. Sounds like you need the better juicer. Yes the breville seems very popular. It certainly works well for me!

[Azurewinged]

@overwhelmingtraffic

Thanks for the juicer info ;)

[overwhelmingtraffic]

@Azurewinged happy to help :)

[comtton]

wow you can really see your weight loss in this video amazing ........

[overwhelmingtraffic]

@comtton Thanks so much, yes I feel pretty amazing right now I have to say!

[thirstyverk]

Inspirational, thought you were going to cut your digits for a mo with that apple.

[thirstyverk]

Inspirational, thought you were going to cut your digits for a mo.

[overwhelmingtraffic]

@thirstyverk ha ha, yes it's a big knife. My brother was amazed at my dexterity with the big knife and has suggested I get a smaller one. Makes a lot of sense :) Thanks for dropping by.....

[brotherhamm]

I saw the documentary around 3 weeks ago and that's actually what got me motivated to do some research on the subject. I'm going to give it a try, thanks for you help.

[overwhelmingtraffic]

@brotherhamm Yeah it's awesome for sure. Good on you for researching it so you know exactly what to expect.  Good luck and drop me a line anytime....

[brotherhamm]

Hey Tim, thanks for the example! You had mentioned a book titled "Juice Fasting and Detoxification" does this book give you a plan to follow? Also do you have any websites that you would recommend? Thanks again and well done.

[overwhelmingtraffic]

@brotherhamm The book doesn't really give a detailed plan, but the thing is you don't really need one. Just drink 16-20 oz (500-600 mls) of juice 3 times per day. And this video shows you how to do it. Ask me any questions you may have and get started :). Also watch the movie "Fat sick and nearly dead". That helped and inspired me. Appreciate your kind words!

[stringbends]

ABOUT CUCUMBERS - Not sure what type you use Tim but give "Lebanese" cucumbers a try, they have a great taste and the skin is not as strong tasting as traditional cucumbers.  We use them all the time.

[stringbends]

I can't believe it's the same brother I knew 40 days ago!. Well done bro....

[overwhelmingtraffic]

@stringbends Thanks bro, I am a different person, no doubts about it! Have tried the lebanese cucumber and did not like the taste, but that was early on so I might try it again with skin and see what it tastes like now. No doubt it will taste better because I am becoming more accustomed to vegies.

[bkteems]

You are awesome! You always get me pumped up when i watch your vids! Have a great day!

[overwhelmingtraffic]

@bkteems Thanks I appreciate that !

[defjamv89]

We do also get the stickers in the States and they're a bitch to take off!

[overwhelmingtraffic]

@defjamv89 Ah there you go, I was not sure if you guys got it or not, not just an Australian thing after all! they can be painful sometimes that is for sure.

[jart0679]

Wow, can I just compliment on how young you look!!! You look 20 years younger from your day 1 vid. You look great :)

[overwhelmingtraffic]

@jart0679 Wow what a compliment, thanks so much. I feel much younger and I can feel the extra energy and have better skin, etc. So it's fantastic. Thanks again.

[jart0679]

@overwhelmingtraffic I tried the juice fast 3 weeks ago. I was fine on the first day but the second day I threw everything up. I am not sure what happend with me. Maybe I juiced too much chard and grapefuit. I am going to give it a try again. Seeing you looking so healthy and young is really an inspiration.

[overwhelmingtraffic]

@jart0679 Wow that does not sound like much fun, sorry to hear that :( Any chance the fruit and vegies were off? I think the more vegetables you can have in your juice the better, but maybe start slow and build up?  e.g. Try replacing 1 meal per day with a juice, then 2, and if all ok after a few days go for it? Thanks so much for your kind words I really do appreciate them.

[LiveFromTheFridge]

Question: how many of those juices do you have in a day?

[LiveFromTheFridge]

mmm looks good! I'm going to be starting a juice fast and you have given me so much inspiration to do so. Thanks for your videos!

[overwhelmingtraffic]

@LiveFromTheFridge Thanks so much for dropping by. And yes it was nice to drink. and of course do healthy. Good luck with your juice fast and I am here if you need help. I have 3 of these juices per day and am not hungry so do not need any more. Often I have less quantity than shown (3/4's of a glass or around 400 ml/15 oz which is enough)....
