In part one we looked at the build up to your juice cleanse.
Apart from the emotional side of undertaking a juice cleanse, you need to look at the practicalities of what you will actually drink during the cleanse.
As this will be your first juice cleanse, you may want to make things easier by purchasing the juice blends rather than making them yourself. If you want to give it a go, you could buy some and make some to take some of the pressure off.
You should not underestimate how much time it will take to prepare liters of juice every single day using a domestic juicing machine.
What To Expect During Your First Three Day Juice Cleanse
At first you will feel very hungry. This is because you are used to filling your stomach with unhealthy foods and having your body take that energy to process the food.
As hunger will be your main enemy, you need to be ready for it. There is no limit to how much juice you can drink, so if you’re feeling hungry simply drink juice or water. You may find that other things help you to cope to take your mind off it, like yoga or going out for some pampering. Try to keep busy, especially mentally.
Another side effect of a juice cleanse is the detoxification process. This can make you feel nauseous and have a headache, or generally just feel a bit out of it. This is because your body is accelerating the process of getting rid of toxins already existing in the digestive system.
You will have less energy than usual, so do not push yourself too hard and if you planned correctly, make time for yourself away from the stress of daily life.
Coping Mechanisms To Get You Through Your First Juice Cleanse
One of the best ways to cope is to write. At the end of each day, and even through the day if you wish, keep a track of how you feel and what you are doing. Not only will this help you to focus, but it will also make subsequent juice cleanses easier to deal with as you can look back at the feelings you had during your first one.
You need to stay mentally strong so make sure that you are in a positive mindset by choosing the time you start your three day juice cleanse.
If it is your first juice cleanse, and you are really struggling, you could ease the problems of hunger by eating some raw vegetables and fruit. This should be seen as a supplement to the juice not replacing it, so for example have a glass of juice and a carrot.
