Can't get no....satisfaction!

Juicing doesn't satisfy ANY mental or emotional dimension of hunger.  The only thing it does satisfy is the actual hunger pangs themselves.  On any other diet that I've been on, I have attempted to satisfy the cravings for one food with another food -- you want mashed potatoes thick with butter and gravy; you eat a steamed sweet potato instead.  You want ice cream; you eat a bowl of frozen berries instead.  The extent to which the healthy food satisfies the yearning for the craved food is the extent to which you feel satisfied after eating... and frankly, the success of the diet depends on this.  You go weeks and weeks without satisfying the cravings for certain foods, but the cravings are still there, and willpower wears thin.

This is totally different.  No matter how strong my desire for any food is, the ONLY thing I can do is simply deny it.  There is no substitution, no partial satisfaction.
