My juice cleanse in April left me broke and hangry after 3 days
I saw a video saying a 7-day juice fast would reset my system, so I spent $120 on organic veggies and a new blender. By day 3 I was so dizzy I ate a whole pizza and cried, which totally defeated the point. Has anyone else had a diet backfire so hard it made you binge?

That $120 blender tax is the real crime here. Honestly though, a pizza and a cry sounds like a pretty solid system reset to me.

Remember most of these extreme diets are just marketing. Your body doesn't need a "reset," it needs regular food. Spending that much money to feel terrible and then binge is a clear sign it wasn't worth it. Maybe just try adding a green juice to your normal meals instead.

Tell me about it, I once spent a fortune on a cleanse that basically just made me a very expensive, very grouchy water filter. Ended up so hungry I ate an entire loaf of bread in one sitting, which kinda defeated the whole point. Lucas is totally right, it's just a bad deal all around. My body's idea of a reset is a decent meal and maybe an extra hour of sleep, not some magic potion. Adding a bit of green stuff to what you already eat sounds way more sane.
