I got 4 old ladies. They do a great job.

Home-made, whether juice or food, is always best. You know exactly what goes into it. Store leftovers in the fridge. Duh.

Todays attempt turned out very nice.

1/2 honey melon
1 medium sized cucumber
2 medium sized carrots

Its allowed as long as its been in the juicer

I just finished watching a <cough cough > "borrowed" copy of the full one and half hour program or movie.
Quite inspiring TBH
That Phil guy looked amazing after losing all that weight

did you buy it in Pattaya?

EDIT, just read you're from Whore Inn, so probably not.

If this is in reply to my post, then i downloaded it from the "bay of pirates dot se"
(And that reference to Hua Hin is just the user level 'cause i dont live there)

Yes. It certainly will unclog the clogged parts!

I decidefd to try another mix was ok but next time I will only use 1 head of broccoli as it has a very strong flavour.

2 heads of broccoli
1 whole pineapple (to mask the broccoli)
1 medium carrot

This one is rather nice,

1 beetroot
1 yellow mango
1 carrot

I just found some in the supermarket at the bottom of Threpasit and I'm sure I've seen them in Foodland.

Don't think I do, spose I'll find out though.

Oh, so they're another "farang" vegetable, i take it?

I bought a juicer, it's got an attachment that does a great job of grinding coffee beans.

Can't be because I bought 4 cricket ball sized ones for 50 baht, must be a local thing too.

Todays blend is a bit sweeter due to my hangover.

1/2 honey melon
1 large carrot
1 beetroot

very nice.

Heres a recipe for a hangover using beetroot, amongst other things:

75ml gin
200ml beetroot juice
200ml tomato Juice
½ tsp celery salt
2 tsp freshly grated horseradish
2-3 drops Tabasco
10-12 shakes Worcester sauce
Freshly ground black pepper
50ml red wine
Celery sticks, to garnish

Pour all the above into a big jug filled with ice, stir briskly, pour into a glass and down it, taking a good glug first, and then sipping slowly, but regularly...like one does with the 1st beer in a session.
Theres enough there for 2-4 people, so its best used after a bar crawl with your mates, or the morning after a good party

I see them in the market in Patong all the time.
Reminds me to pick some up to make a gratted carrot/beet salad with some bits of orange, lemon and fresh ginger all topped with some olive oil. yumm!

This one is quite nice,

1/2 pappaya
1 large tomato
1 yellow mango
1 green apple

I have been reding The Juice Fasters Bible on my Kindel and also took Bung's advice and downloaded Fat, Sick And Nearly Dead. Both are very good and full of information. Thanks for the info Bung.

It looks like I'm going to try a juice fast after Songkran.

When I mentioned it to the wife she was against it in a big way saying I would be dead within a week, that was until I mentioned I would also be giving up the grog.

Now all I hear is how good it's going to be for me and how soon am I starting and for how many years.
