7 day juice diet! Jason Vale

I'm on day 2 of my Jason vale juice diet. I've done this lots of times but it's been about 3 years since my last one.
Got some weight to lose and also, I really believe juicing helped me conceive my daughter 9 years ago as I have PCOS and cutting out meat and dairy made a difference to my overall health, as well as the gym. Joined about 4 weeks ago and now up to doing 3 yoga classes a week.

Been ttc for 15 months so hoping this will work.

Anyone else done juice fasts?

How did you find it?

Well done OP.

I know nothing about juice diets, but I was having trouble ttc a few years ago, lost half a stone and BOOM pregnant... I'm convinced it was the weightloss (after a year ttc)

Good luck 😉

Sorry to be negative but I got to Day 3 and became too faint and ill to work, my blood pressure was dangerously low and I had the worst headache imaginable. I’d only lost about 2lb which I promptly put back on again when I stopped, which I had no choice but to. Juice diets are not recommended by medics and, having had the experience I had, I never attempt one again.

Hi there, I got all the way to day 7 and lost just over 7lbs which is great. Sadly though, I was struck down with gastointeritis for 3 days so couldn't eat anything! Last night I managed half a roast dinner comprising of a little turkey and a few veggies.
Overall I found this 7 day juice fast to be the hardest, mentally and physically. I never felt full and craved all the time. I think doing it just before my period was a dumb idea really and in hindsight, I should have done it at a different part of my cycle when I wouldn't be craving certain foods.
I'm happy with the weight loss and the fact that my stomach has shrunk considerably, so I don't need to eat as much to feel full. That's the main thing for me oncoming.
I just need to get back into proper eating now that the bug has 99% gone.
