Time for the Pineapple/Apple/Mint.Ģ:45pm: I wake up from a little cat nap (fell asleep watching The Mindy Project on my laptop) and have my green juice. Cleansing on the weekend is so much better as I think about food less when I’m not at work. I get up and have my green juice.ġ2:00pm: Shooting outfit photos with Lydia and realize I haven’t had my next juice. I haven’t slept that well in a loonnng time. I do some blog stuff and things around the apartment and go go bed around midnight.ĩ:30am: Okay, maybe this is not so bad. I’m still hungry so I have a few slices of cucumber, topped with sea salt. The cashew milk tastes like a (filling!) piece of heaven.ġ0:30pm: After a mug of ginger tea, Alicia heads home. I am drinking water and so hungry.Ĩ:30pm: Our piercings are complete. We are getting our ears pierced to celebrate our upcoming birthday. Back to the green juice… at this point, all I am slowly sipping it.Ħ:45pm: Leave the office, head downtown to meet Alicia. Into the fridge they go… they will be mine on Monday. A thoughtful friend (who had no idea about this little cleanse of mine) sent me the most delicious looking box of macarons. I now hate the green juice.Ħ:10pm: A messenger shows up at my office. Mmm…ĥ:53pm: Feeling hangry, I reach for the last green juice of the day. At Starbucks, even the processed bagel that has probably been sitting out since 6am looks good.Ĥ:10pm: I forgot how much I love the Spicy Lemonade. Disappointed, run to Starbucks for green tea. Encouraged by my enabler coworkers (she said something to the effect of, “It’s your cleanse, you can do it on your own terms!”) I have a handful of Popcorners Chips. Somehow green juice isn’t quite as appealing when you have more than one in a single day. On to Green Juice #2.ģpm: Still drinking my green juice. So many heavenly smells emanating from different areas of our open-space office.Ģpm: Hungry, hungry hippo. I feel ragey.ġ:20pm: And now she is eating a huge, leafy salad from Sweet Green. I sip it slowly through my conference call.ġpm: My coworker is eating a string cheese. Noon: It’s on to #2… Pineapple Apple Mint. Somebody called “coffeenbagels” replies to one of my tweets. I actually really love the green juice… sometimes I buy it on my own.ġ1am: The green juice is gone. (Yesterday’s food intake was positively gluttonous in the best way possible involving Melt Shop, a Milk Bar Compost Cookie, and an indulgent dinner at Soho House topped off with two hearty glasses of red wine.) I feel puffy, gross, and unhealthy.ġ0am: I have my green juice.

I need this cleanse like nobody’s business. The night before I’d had a dinner party and then decided to rearrange my apartment because my new rug arrived. Doing a cleanse helps to eliminate cravings, helps you sleep better, and is just a good thing to do every now and again when you feel like you’ve been going too hard.ĩ:15am: I overslept. To me, the best reason to cleanse is to reset your system.

Do not do a cleanse for weight loss – you will gain it right back. Also, a big question I get is about weight loss, and if it is a good way to lose weight. All food smells more amazing, and you do get really, really hungry. I forgot how much it heightens your senses. So many of you asked me about it on Instagram that I thought I’d put together a little diary for you.īefore we dive in, here are a few things to note. For that reason I decided it was time to hit “reset” and do a juice cleanse. having two miniature grilled cheeses and three miniature tuna tartares as “dinner” at a party and then waking up starving and having a bagel.)
