I'm so super impressed with Bearded One. I'm most encouraged by the fact that he's using the same juice almost every day. I've also always been someone who could eat the same thing over and over again. Especially when I'm eating healthy. I could have the same breakfast, the same lunch and the same dinner over and over again. Or the same two or three of each. I think it is even more important for a juice fast to keep it going. If you have a "comfort juice", that seems like the ideal when times get tough.
I'm all raw and organic right now. Just finished a fruit salad lunch. I'm going to switch to 50% juice tomorrow. We'll see how that goes.
Start Weight: 281
Today's Weight: 274.5
Total Lost: 6.5lbs.
Best,

You are doing great! Keep it up. I have just started my prefast. I am only doing 5 days but understand how important that piece is.
I too am following The Bearded One. He has been an inspiration. Lord knows I want to feel better, but the weight loss is so appealing. I pray that that will be a strong peice of my fast.
Well, as I said, keep up the great work. I admire you and your strength. Here we go...
Be well,
Willa

- Slow and steady by Bearded One

One thing I actively tried to do during my pre-fast was massively slow down my eating time. Really chewing each bite until it couldn't be chewed anymore. I found that I got fuller on less food than I've ever had before (because my mind had time to tell me I was full I suppose).
Same thing goes for drinking the juice. "Swish" it around in your mouth beforehand (not like a rinse or anything) almost like you were chewing it. It helps partially digest the juice before you swallow it---and prolongs your juice almost like a meal. Plus, you'll find out that you want less juice that way.
Just some thoughts...
Keep up the good job.
Peace,
Bearded One
