    Honestly, it's great to find something that inspires you. Heck, even The Biggest Loser inspires me a bit. Seeing someone lose so much weight and become healthier, that's inspiring. But I think it's another thing altogether to jump head first into something without doing legitimate research. I'd also say before doing anything, you should make an appointment with your doctor and get a referral to a dietician too if need be.

    A 60 day juice fast is not something that should be taken lightly.

    As far as the bathroom, yes, you will pee a lot. That's good. Your body is flushing out toxins and fat. As far as the bowel movements, maybe the first few days, you will have a few bouts. Your body is cleaning out. After the first few days, it's easy. But, not everyone does a juice fast. Many juice and eat. I know that once you start juicing, you will be addicted. Yes, you will be addicted to nutrients! Crazy, I know.

    Peeing out fat and toxins. Well, that's a biological first. Someone should write this up for a scientific journal FAST before anyone else takes credit for the discovery.

    That explains why my pee is all greasy and burny.

    Am I the only one that watched the 2nd movie and thought if you needed a "reboot" constantly that meant the plan was a failure and not anything that should actually be followed? It just promotes unhealthy yo-yo dieting - crash diet drinking juice, lose weight, eat regular food, get fat again - time for re-boot! crash diet drinking juice, lose weight, eat food, get fat and repeat - over and over. Why not just eat at a calorie deficit and skip all the nonsense and be kind to your body.

    This is exactly what I was going to say.

    We laughed at that documentary with the full knowledge that it's bull. Plain and simple.

    Eat at a calorie deficit and you will lose weight.

    The only thing he wanted to reboot was the hype and sales of whatever juicer he is recommending.

    As a vegan I only eat a plant based diet anyway, so i'm giving the ten day cleanse a shot. It just means that the food is consumed raw and in a liquid state to allow for quick absorbtion and will keep me off all the nasty processed stuff and sugars that my body craves.
