Juice Feasting - Day 26
The past couple days have been interesting to say the least.
After my spa day on Monday, I felt more relaxed, but I still felt pretty aggressive. I woke up Tuesday morning feeling hostile and belligerent. Later in the day, the anger went away, and I was left with this incredible feeling of power and energy, [...]

Juice Feasting - Day 24
Last night I went through some pretty severe emotional detox. I started feeling incredibly angry, and I had to warn my family to steer clear of me. I wished I was still training in martial arts just so I could pummel something. I listened to a Paraliminal before bed, and that helped — it relaxed [...]

Juice Feasting - Day 23
Physically I’m feeling fine, but my will to continue juice feasting has been weakening a lot. My heart isn’t in it as much as it once was.
Weight Loss
I weighed 170.4 this morning for a net loss of 8.6 pounds in 22 days.
I’m now wearing my belt one notch tighter.
Feeling Unmotivated
Aside from the weight loss, I [...]

Share Your Shame
What personal stories have you locked away in the secret vault of your mind, vowing never to share them publicly? What would shame you terribly if it were ever posted on the Internet and connected with your real name for anyone to see? What events or habits from your past or present would you feel [...]

Juice Feasting - Day 21
Great day today — I’m so glad that yesterday’s headache is gone. I did an hour-long radio interview about my book this morning which was a lot of fun.
I had some emotional detox this afternoon, mainly some mild depression, but it only lasted a couple of hours. Presently I’m feeling fantastic.
Weight Loss
I weighed 170.8 this [...]

Juice Feasting - Day 20
Today was okay aside from a throbbing headache I had since waking up this morning. It’s not so bad when I remain still, but it hurts a lot when I get up and move around.
I’m not taking any medication since that would defeat the purpose of getting the pharmaceutical residues out instead of taking more [...]

Fanatical About Growth
Some recurring feedback I’ve received about my juice feast goes like this:
Steve, you’re encountering lots of obstacles on this juice feast such as food cravings, feeling sick, and emotional yo-yoing. Ergo, this is clearly the wrong path, and you should quit.
I hear similar feedback whenever I conduct public experiments. It makes no difference what the [...]

Juice Feasting - Day 18
Today was another fine day. I felt great mentally and physically all day long.
After not feeling so good for a day, last night my appetite came back with a vengeance. I drank a quart of veggie juice and quickly followed it up with another quart of coconut water (the water from two young coconuts). I [...]

Juice Feasting - Day 17
Every time I think I’m past the detox hump, I seem to get humped again.
The past 24 hours have been rough. After drinking 1.5 quarts of watermelon-cantaloupe-blackberry-raspberry juice yesterday, I took the kids out for a few hours at the Lied Discovery Children’s Museum near downtown Vegas. While we were out, I started to experience [...]

Juice Feasting - Day 14
Today was another great day. The daily routine of living on juice is gradually becoming a habit, so I don’t have to think about it so much anymore.
Emotional Detox
I still had some mild emotional detox today. Unexpected feelings would surface and then subside after an hour or so. For example, I started feeling very nervous [...]
