    I just had a stir fry. I lost count of how many vegies we put in, but there were at least 10 different kinds
  • I am starting a juice fast as well. I watched both Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead movies and was inspired. I have been counting calories and nutrients on this website for years and I'm still ticking up on the scales. I have decided to start out slow. I'm juicing 4 times a day with one healthy meal a day, tomorrow I plan on cutting out even that. Wish me luck. Hopefully this will jump start some weight gain that I sorely need to lose. Just counting calories hasn't worked.

    If it's not working for you then you are doing it wrong. It's all about calories in versus calories out. Science

    What are you going to do when your juice fast ends? Why not learn the skills needed to have an appropriate relationship with food from the beginning? Unless you plan on living on juice for the rest of your life, you will wind up putting weight back on when you eat real food again.

    liquids aren't as filling to me. how would you not be starving on an all juice diet?

    People have completely REVERSED many illnesses through juicing. There are a large variety of ways to juice. You can juice and eat or you can just juice and people often juice for 15, 30, or even more days with absolutely no ill effects. You're body is given a break from digesting and your system resets itself and you are getting all of those micronutrients that instantly absorbed into and used by your body. I don't prefer to just juice because I need variety to my diet but I know that many people have done it and after the adjustment period (the first 4 days or so) you can juice comfortably and not be hungry or have any of the side effects that you experience in the first few days of detoxing

    I want to know specifically what diseases are being completely reversed. I would also like to know what are you detoxing from? Is it toxins? And if so, specially what toxins is the juicing causing you to detox.
