I did it! I completed the 10 day juice cleanse on Friday. How I made it through Thanksgiving still baffles me, but I did it! The last five days of the juice fast were much easier than the beginning. I will say that there were two days that I did not drink enough juice and I noticed that my energy level was down. That being said, make sure you are drinking 5 to 6 juices a day to keep your energy at an all time high. You can read about the beginning of my fast here: 10 Day Juice Fast
Tips for transitioning off of a juice fast/cleanse:
-Continue to drink LOTS of water
-Slowly transition back into eating foods
-Start by drinking 2 or 3 juices a day with one meal being fresh, organic fruits and vegetables.
-Try to keep other foods to soups, smoothies, and salads to ease your digestive system back into motion.
-Don’t overeat. Eat smaller amounts of food throughout the day.
-Avoid dairy, meat, sugary foods, and whole grains the first week.
-Keep exercising.
-The more plant-based foods you can eat, the better!
-Keep drinking juice on a daily basis for optimal health!
I loved doing the 10 day juice cleanse! I now have more energy than I did before starting the fast. I have much better sleep patterns, waking up feeling rejuvenated and ready to go. I feel better overall and have noticed improvements in all facets of myself. I would definitely recommend a juice cleanse to anyone wanting to reboot their physical, mental, and spiritual well-being. It can enhance your life in more ways than you would imagine.
Good for you! Never had a doubt that you would succeed. Now you have an even greater radiance about you – coming from healthy self-discipline! Blessings,
Way to go! That juice looks so good on ice. Never thought of it!

A really want to try a juice fast, looks like a lot of advantages.
I am about to embark on this 10 day juice fast tomorrow… I have never tried anything like this in my life. Although I am on a Paleo diet – I feel I need to cleanse out my system and begin again slowly. Here goes!!
Hey Jennifer!!

Congratulation and thank you for sharing some useful tips! 😀
I’ve been doing juice cleanse every now and then, but the longest I’ve ever done was 3 days. I’m going to challenge 10-day cleanse start from tomorrow. Just curious, how much weight did you lose after 10 day juice fast?
Thank you so much- hope the tips help you on your journey! I lost about 8 pounds on the 10 day fast. It is crazy how much better it makes you feel!
