Follow the advice to prep pre-cleanse. This means cutting out all meat, dairy, caffeine, alcohol, sugar and wheat three days before juice time. Similarly, resist the urge to pig out post-cleanse.

Attempt the program only when daily demands aren't too taxing. Decline dinner party invites, scale back on aggressive exercise and don't schedule any major work deadlines in anticipation of cleanse cloud.

Drink plenty of water or green tea between juices.

Avoid gum. The chewing sensation will trick your body into thinking it's getting food, leading to even more hunger.

Some juice junkies recommend a teaspoon of olive oil with a squirt of lemon before bed to help move your system along. Not only is it effective, this small allowance of fat tastes good.

Brush your teeth as soon as you finish your last drop of juice. Nothing helps quell cravings like a minty fresh mouth.
