Anyone Into Juicing? I just started and need advice

  • hello everyone,
    For the past six weeks, I've been doing the nutrisystem diet as well as cardio 5-6 times a week (consists of an 45 min treadmill, hour of zumba, and 30 min on bike, and weights). My weight is constantly going up and down and Im annoyed

    Well, I just watched the movie ' fat, sick and nearly dead', and there are a ton of people who swearby fasting. I am thinking of doing this to kickstart my metabolism. Ive screwed up my metabolism for years by water fasting and ugh, i regret it.

    So, I was wondering if anyone is into juicing and how often do you juice a day and if you can share any recipes, advice, so on.

    Please help me out! I am so desperate to lose this weight that's hindered me from gaining confidence, self esteem and most important, loving myself the way i am. thanks!
  • When you say 45 min treadmill, 1 hr zumba, 30 min bike, do you mean you do all 3 each day, 5-6 times a week? And how much time do you spend on weights (I assume you mean weightlifting)? I think 2h15m of cardio per day is too much and it'll put a lot of unnecessary stress on your body.

    I'm not familiar with nutrisystem, but it's possible that your diet is the problem. What types of food are you eating?

    By juicing do you mean fruit juice? Fruit juice is ok (if you don't drink too much of it), but it's healthier to eat fresh fruit. The healthiest drink is water. If you mean the other type of "juicing" I wouldn't recommend it.
