this has been quite an interesting thread

 

i agree i did not post most of my stuff in this thread it was moved over. but whichever thread you read. Good information in both. other is simply fat sick and nearly dead

 

I have a 375 watt inverter hooked directly to battery, I found a blender with a 300 watt motor, makes a decent size one cup smoothie.

example of one recipe I use.

1 small orange, 1 whole banana, 4 strawberries, a couple spoonfuls of yogurt, a couple pieces of ice

 

hey i have been thinking about doing this cause i just wanna drop 50lbs and be back at 220.. but my question is how much muscle mass is loss doing this. Dont wanna lose my guns lol

 

Whats wrong with chewing food?

 

This is an awesome thread, I stumbled onto Dave the juicer on youtube and have been wondering how the heck you do it in your truck. I mean first, I need to know how "much" of whatever you need to eat a day? How do you store veg/fruit in a truck? We have a fridge but its small. Juicers are expensive but do they take that much juice (as in watts) to operate? We have a 1500 watt inverter. Can get some fruit and vegies from wal-mart but, not every day. Definetly interested in this; Wife and I are a team operation and working out is like almost impossiable. I lost 35lbs while in Iraq in 05 but I worked out twice a day and drank 5 to 6 protein shakes a day. I can do the shakes but no way I have time to work out twice a day, let alone find the place to do it. I can make time to do some excersize at least 30mins a day some how...

 

When you juice you consume much more than you could eat, therefore you are taking in much more nutrients with the juice

 

Ok. I have experierence with juicing-for holistic health and weight loss. Personally only for health, helped
a couple with long term juicing for weight loss. It's a life style and would be difficult on the truck!
Also expensive and time consuming.
HOWEVER, yummy really healthy drinks can be made on the truck relatively easily.
We have a 2000 watt inverter on truck that I use and have recipes, tips and advice if interested.
Im not a nutritionist, daughter is a Chiropractor, reg. nutritionist and holistic healer.
So if I can help translate some of this to our "on the go" lifestyle let me know!
