Juice Cleanse

You guys, I have been eating so much rich food lately. My boyfriend's parents were in town and we have been eating amazing dinners (creamy truffle pasta at Hostaria Del Piccolo, buttery shrimp at Hungry Cat and way too much birthday cake from Susie Cakes, for example) which is great, but I am not exactly feeling my best.

Typically I am pretty healthy so my body is pissed at me. Enter: a cleanse! I did a juice cleanse last year from Pressed Juicery, an amazing LA based juice company offering cleanses and really tasty juices for everyday. I continue to spend way too much money there, but there's something about a fresh pressed juice that makes me feel like it's worth it.


What do you all think about cleanses? I know that they are not a health 'cure' or a stable weight loss tool, but drinking loads of vegetables and fruit can't exactly be bad for you right? Even if it's a bit of a placebo effect, I always feel way better and more refreshed after having one of these gourmet juices.

There are so many different cleanses and fresh juice companies out there now - check out just some of them below, and let me know your thoughts on cleanses:

  1. I go back and forth on this...It does sound like it would feel very good and purifying to do a cleanse but I love food too much to give it up even for a few days :(
    P.S. Hosteria del Piccolo is one of my faves...the nutella banana calzone is KILLER, def need a cleanse after one of those!

  4. @ Kate yes I'm obsessed with Hostaria! Not sure if I really can go without food for a few days but we'll see!

  5. I can't get enough of the almond milk from Pressed Juicery, so thank God it's not SUPER convenient for me. You need to try the new Moon Juice on Rose Ave. The owner is a former restaurant chef I think, so taste was high on her list of priorities and I loved everything I tried. Signed up for a cleanse but have yet to go for it...
