Today is day 11, only 4 full days left!. So we thought, Wow! we’ve spent 10 days throwing away our pulp, perhaps we can reuse some of it for something more useful? Sounds like a novel idea, right? How about we make carrot honey face-masks? And we did... We had fun. ^.^
Basically you just mix the pulp of 2-3 carrots together, then you slowly mix in 3-4 TBS of honey and wala you have a mask! Apply it to your purty clean face, wait for 10 minutes and then wash it off. You can add egg or lemon or many other things to the mask recipe. Go here --> Juice Pulp Face Mask Recipes for even more tips. ^^

Juan's Stats - Juice: 3.5 Liters / Water: 3 water Weight: 5 kg less than the start Energy: Difficult, in the beginning of the day because he couldn’t sleep Friday night. Mood: Morning it was bad, but now it is good. Hunger: It was under control Detox Symptoms: Easy Cheats: A few bites of fruit Cravings: Everything, when he was on the phone with his mom this morning, he told her he wanted to eat meat, chicken and a river full of beans.. Hehe Inge's Stats - Juice: 2.3 Liters / Water: 1 liter or more Weight: 3 kg less than the start Energy: In the morning good, then after I took naps. Mood: Sleepy Hunger: Not too bad Detox Symptoms: I have a white-coated tongue. Yucky and a small red spot under my eye Cheats: Some honey Cravings: The taste of variety. In Korea our veggie and fruit choices are really limited so the juices start to taste the same after awhile.Inge's Conclusion of the Day - I’m taking another nap :-)
Juan : "I think this is a bad idea. This is an atrocity. I want to eat. I'm only doing this 10 days."Inge: "No, you're doing it 15 days. You're not leaving me!"
Favorite Juice(s) of the Day: Pumpkin Juice with Greens was nice. Also we made a Pizza Juice.. No, no, we didn't put a pizza in the juicer. We're not that desperate.... yet.....
Tip of the Day: Drink Green, Why? They are so good for you! Green Leafy plants, like spinach, kale, parsley are really powerful. They have Vitamins C, K, E, and A, micronutrients, minerals like calcium and magnesium, and even protein. Crazy right? They are know to give you amazing energy, fight cancer, help your heart, your blood, your bones, almost anything and everything. Also I heard that if juice enough of them, then you may fly like Superman! It's true. I think it will take me about 2 more weeks of juicing greens to fly. :-)Even professionals say so..."Greens are the No. 1 food you can eat regularly to help improve your health," says Jill Nussinow, MS, RD, a culinary educator in Northern California and the author of The Veggie Queen.See, I told you that they are amazing.So throw a couple of handfuls of this into your juice or smoothies every day.Types of Greens to Juice:- Spinach (preferably baby spinach)- Kale- Swiss chard- Collard greens- Dandelion greens- Turnip greens- Beat greens- Parsley- Arugula- Romaine lettuce- Green and red leaf lettuceResource:
Cost Saving Tip of the Day: How do you save money when you juice? Look for sales! When something is on sale, just go crazy and buy, buy, buy, buy! And don't worry if the clerk lady in the supermarket thinks you're nuts for buying 50 cucumbers at a time. It's a free country. (Well, I hope so!) Also choose the produce that is in season and available in your area/country.In Korea we don't have the variety of vegetable/fruit options like the USA or the Dominican Republic. We have to work at buying smarter, but if we buy in the street market and buy the vegetables that are in season, we can stretch our dollar (won) super far. And the street market people will give you a nice discount too, if you woo them enough with your foreign charms and a few nice Korean phrases. ~ buying a lot and being a regular customer helps too. ;-)Story of Day Four : Today I set out to find what we spend in a day for juicing. It is cheaper or more expensive than a regular day of eating for us? Today we had a variety of Juices. Here is the run down of the day with produce cost attached.Green Pepper Carrot Tomato Juice = 2 Green Peppers, 6 Carrots, 4 Med Tomatoes $3 = 24oz of juiceMean Green Juice = 10 cucumbers, 4 apples, 2 lemons, a ginger knuckle, 25 leaves of Spinach, 25 leaves of lettuce = $7.5 = 78 oz of juiceJuan's Special Juice = 3 kiwis, 1 bag of spinach, 4 cucumbers, 2 apples, 1 small peach, 3 bananas = $5.50 = 40 ozPumpkin Cucumber Juice = 10 cucumbers, 1/2 Korean pumpkin, 1 carrot, 2 apples, 1 banana, ginger, 1/2 spinach, 1/2 lemon = $6 = 65 ozTomato Spinach Juice = 2 handfuls of spinach, 4-5 medium tomatoes, 3 green peppers = $2.50 = 20ozToday's Total = $24.50 = 227 oz of juice or 1.8 gallons of juice$24.50 for two people to drink juice isn't bad. If you're single only about 12-15$ a day., very doable. I think that this is a bit more than when we eat only at home, but less than days that we go out to eat. Also we are getting many more nutrients and fresh foods then in a normal day. The key to juicing on a budget is to know what fruits and vegetables are available in your area. In Korea, you can't go out and buy cilantro or celery or green apples here unless we travel far and/or spending a lot of money, but we can buy romaine lettuce and spinach and Pumpkin Leaves easily. There are almost always nutrition substitutes. You just have to look for them.Juicing Resource : Here is a great resource I found today from 
Tip of the Day: Ok so Day 3 isn't so easy. You're hungry, tired, achy and you feel like a fish in vat of green juice. What's worse is that there are 12 days to go and that seems discouraging,. This is exactly when you need to think long term. Fifteen days is nothing. Fifteen days is only 1/2 of a month and 4.16% of a year. You're just taking 4.16% of one year to clean the insides of your body. Not so bad, right? How much time do you spend cleaning your house? or your car? Probably a lot more time, and what is more important your house or your body? Also, think, What benefits will you gain from cleansing? Many things but let's pick one: --> More energy. And more energy means that you will have more energy to be amazing parent to your kids, to be a good boss and a better person. Because when you're tired and worn out, it is quite hard to really love people well. Remember 15 days is nothing, for you, your health and the people around you.Story of Day Two: From what people say Day 2 and 3 are the hardest of days of the fast. I think Day 2 wins in evilness for me. I had all sorts of cravings for anything and everything dry and salty. Mostly crackers and Pizza too. Day 3 was a bit easier. I woke up early, was immediately hungry, so I drank hot lemon water to detox, cleaned a bit and read the Bible, and then made a pumpkin green pepper juice. It was amazing! But I used almost a whole pumpkin, and I only was rewarded with maybe, 12 ounces of juice. Apparently pumpkins don't have too much water, but the juice was amazing so I didn't care. Though I had to make a
