Buy a juicer

Question: What the hell do you guys do with the fucking pulp? As a lazy fucker, I'm not about to dig a hole in the fucking ground, or trek out to the dumpster every time I juice. These activities will only produce flies and maggots anyway. My kitchen sink is clogged from the shit, so the only other convenient option at this point is to flush the crap down the toilet.

And no, I'm not going to eat/recycle the shit.

Serious question, though, what do you guys do?

Hey,

I'm running into these issues, I'm going to start making 3 gallons of juice every 3 days. This way I can do it when my garbage is picked up and I don't have to worry about stinking up the house.
 
Got my Omega Vert 350 today! Couldn't wait to try it. Problem is, we haven't gone to the grocery store to stock up yet. All I have is some apples, tomatoes and cucumbers.

Oh well....

Cut up the apples and started juicing :D

OMG, best apple juice I've ever tasted! Not sugary and syrupy like the shit from the store. The amount of juice that just a couple apples puts out is insane! I think I juiced about 8 apples, and had at least 2 cups of juice. About half reds and half greens. Was pleasantly surprised that the green apples weren't as sour as I expected. Mixed was good, shots of red and shots of green were good. It was all good.

So, then figured "let's clean the juicer and try the tomatoes and cukes". Threw the tomatoes in first and did a shot of that. Yum. Love tomatoes. Then added two whole cucumbers... mistake. Lot of juice, not much flavor. Kinda watery, and too cucumbery. I'm not a big fan of cukes, but I think if they were mixed with more tomatoes and some other stuff, they'd be really tasty.

Can't wait to hit the store and start juicing everything I can.

The fat man is AMPED to get healthy! Got a DR appt tomorrow so I can get a baseline. Taking blood, weight, height, the works. Then I'll go back after 30 days to get an update.


juice greens, Kale is my favorite, that shit gets you high. Too much celery made my tongue numb for 24 hours. I'm juicing two meals a day. Eating one big meal. I'm going on vacation when I get back I'm going to do a 30 day juice fast.

Good idea, I will start doing the same. And maybe little string-tied baggies for the trash...
 
Today is Day 6 of my juice fast. Days 1-3 easy breezy, Day 4 from waking up til about 3pm tough (hungry). Day 5 - okay overall but it was tough going with the family to the Olive Garden drinking water, while they were munching away.

Day 6 today - rock bottom - Even though I'm not hungry, I have a deep rooted desire for Spaghetti and meatsauce or a HAM SANDWICH! We have this fresh bread here and the kids been eating this sweet slice ham, that smells heavenly. My mood the last 5 days has been great and I've been feeling AMAZING - today, I'm grumpy and almost depressed. Where is that damn Ham Sandwich????!!!!

Keep telling myself - I'm strong and will not give in to the desire...

Weekends definitely SUCK when you have a family - think it will be a LOT easier while working and your mind is on 'other' stuff.

For now I'm just gonna start composting my pulp.

Eventually I wanna grow vegetables in my own back yard.

Nice! Keep at it! It'll only get easier.
 
Hey guys, what an awesome thread. I was ready to drop $500 on a new vitamix, but here's an awesome alternative.

the Blendtec ICB3

blendtec ICB3 | eBay

I just picked it up for $200 on ebay (bidding), its the same one they use at starbucks and smoothie shops, more horsepower, less pretty, but more importantly, a LOT CHEAPER. The thing actually goes for $1500 new, but used they're a lot cheaper. It's a legit blendtec
 
I don't get it. Most of you guys complaining about high food prices don't think twice when you pay $7 for a beer at the bar, and you'll buy 6+ beers in one night without feeling any guilt (except for the hangover the next day). But when an organic apple costs $1 more per pound than hormone-shot apples, you bring on your jew-jitsu lol

Get your shit together people.

you sound like my wife man.

(you are right of course though lol!)

ordered my juicer and mike good for you, keep us updated how you get on

You thought of taking one or two days off?

Tim Ferriss advocates this with the slow carb diet in his 4-hour-body book.

I actually found it useful. The cravings were killing me.
 
I got a juicer like a month ago from reading this thread and its fucking great! Thanks to everyone who got all of us unhealthy people to go out and start doing this. Definitely felt like I was fucked up the first few drinks I had. My body was like, vitamins? what are these?

One tip I learned if you're trying to make a V8 like drink is to use a small/med can of stewed whole tomatoes in place of some of the real tomatoes to give it more of the v8 taste. I got a little breville since I'm in an apartment and it spins so fast that tomatoes usually tastes pretty watery from it. I fucked up and put 3 cloves of garlic in the first one I tried, it was fucking brutal...
 
After 10 days of successful fasting make sure you take it easy for several DAYS afterwards!

Lets just say after 2 days I thought I was safe and very much ENJOYED 3 big bowls of fresh chicken noodle soup made from scratch.

Yeah, NOT happy right now... actually.. there is a reason I'm in Shooting the shit right now on my cell phone...
 
As a rule, you should probably spend 50% of the time you spent on the fast, breaking the fast.

And I would always avoid any meat or grain products for at least a week.

Make some soup.

Borscht works.

How would you characterize the stool? Sounds funny but I'm serious. You could have a legitimate problem.
 
Is anyone juicing just for favor or general health? Still considering it but I don't plan on fasting or losing any weight. I weigh like 140lbs at 5,10, I am just curious if I can make juices that taste awesome for fun and not for detox etc.

This is exactly what I do. I'm at ideal weight and already pretty damn healthy just not as physically active as I need to be (I'm not IDEALLY physically active at least).

That being said I juice daily just to make sure I'm getting enough nutrients. Helps me maintain my weight too and keep my "system" flowing. It's also fucking delicious, it's a win-win-win-win.

I juice just to try and be healthier. I make some every morning, seems to help wake me up and give me more energy. I'm hoping it'll help me avoid getting sick too. I still eat just as much as I ever did..
