I tried one a few years ago where all you did was drink the whatever it was. After 3 days I got really queasy and had to eat. I do an herbal cleanse from Advocare every now and then, but it's a drink some fiber and adjust your eating type of thing. Just be careful Kathryn, we care for you and I'm just not sold that fasting on just lemonade is good for. |
Day 10 and I'm A OK!!! But I have to nix it!!! not cause I feel bad.... I feel AMAZING!!!! But because Hubby and I are going to Matt Amsden's place this weekend!! He wrote RAWvolution. He has a Deli / restaurant at the Beach.... And we are driving out for the day... I can't visit and not eat!!!! I'm taking his 6 hour class on Aug 13th!! Its a Raw Food Class. Matt teaches it himself, rave reviews! I know someone who's taken it... She gushed!!! So hubby and I both are signed up... Check it out www.RAWvolution.com So anyway.... Tonight... I had a few sips of orange juice... Ehhh... Not all that great.. And I chewed on a wedge of watermelon about two hours later! That was Amazing!!! Then more orange juice, more watermelon.... bla bla... The watermelon is Fantastic!!! Tomorrow I am going to do watermelon for breakfast and veggie broth for lunch and then a very simple salad for dinner... I should be fine... I have never had issues re adjusting to solids like some people do.... But then again.. I don't hop on the pizza and burgers!!! lol |
God you have WILL POWER!! :p |
Kathryn, just wondering how you are doing? I was thinking about doing this cleanse for a while and your thread kinda motivated me to do it, so thank you. I am half way through day 3 and feeling fine! Yippeeeeee!!!! :thankyou2 |
I've also been kicking this fast around for a couple of weeks. I 'm not sure yet. I understand this is a fast NOT a diet. I haven't been able to get to a health food store to get the maple syrup or the fresh organic lemons, so I guess I'll use that as my excuse for now. I know I can do about 2 weeks, I've done that years ago w/ no food, just water.I absolutely do not want to do the salt water flushes that they recommend.Should I or should'nt I ??:rolleyes: |

All the best if you try it. :) |
I once heard a doctor say that the body is actually set up so that detoxing is not necessary. That if you eat right and drink a lot of water, that the body “detoxifies” naturally. I don’t know about you guys but 9 days without any food sounds so extreme. I can understand going through periods of eating only fruits, veggies and lean dairy and meats just to get back on track (or some variation on healthy eating), but I would run that lemonade diet past my doc before I actually did it. I’m no expert, but it sounds like it would do more harm than good. But on the other hand I’ve heard that some cultures and religions value fasting as a spiritual cleanse as well so….happy cleansing! :) :thumbup: |
I couln'nt stop laughing when I noticed the topic of this thread and the name of the poster above me .:D Sorry. |
I am Jazzed to see this pop back up!!! I did 10 full days and only quit early to go to Santa Monica to eat at Matts place... He is a Raw Food Chef and is amazing!!! Check out his site!! www.rawvolution.com I am now down to 184 lbs... from 267!!! wow!!! its amazing to me!!! I'm a whole different person!! Last time I posted it was 197.... all I have been doing is eating raw... no exercise... But I need to get my butt moving! lol I will do the cleanse again in a nother month or two... I lost all my cravings for junk food and found a total peace within me that I needed to deal with my serious sugar addiction! And I don't miss any of it.... When your body is as clean as it is after the cleanse... you don't want to fill it with crap again!!! You just don't crave it! :D Pm if you need support!! or have ?'s I have never felt better... Its not for everybody... but It really was what my body needed, I was so full of crap! Years of eating crap! I needed to get serious!! And this did it!! |
