3 Day Juice Cleanse? Day One...

Yesterday, I decided that I would embark on a 3-day juice cleanse (sort of) starting today.  I've committed to drinking nothing but fruit/vegetable juice plus the occasional nut milk for at least three days, but I may juice for longer if I feel good on day three.

Day 1

Today, I had five juices + a cashew milk


  • Breakfast: green juice
  • Snack: pineapple, apple, mint
  • Lunch: green juice
  • Snack: beet, cucumber, carrot, apple
  • Dinner: carrot, apple, ginger
  • Snack: cashew milk, cinnamon, vanilla, agave nectar
I felt pretty satisfied after my dinner drink but decided to have the cashew milk a couple of hours later, and it was delish!  I could have done without it, but my cashew milk is three days old, and I want to finish it before it goes bad.  Hey, no judging!  Have you seen the price of raw, organic cashews?

I expected to feel hungry today, but I didn't - not once.  A lot of folks who've completed a juice cleanse said that they felt fine on day 1, but days 2-4 were a nightmare.  I'll just have to wait and see how tomorrow goes...
