Hi 2dreem, j

I just wanted to say a big THANK YOU - you really have been a source of wisdom and support over the past few days - you're awesome!

What you said really hit home because I remembered 'why' I used to fast when I was EDed and it was just so that I could binge as well - I was following a very typical binge/restrict cycle. And what you said made me realise I've got to keep this in mind so that I avoid it happening this time. Which I think made me realise I have to stop the cleanse today. Because I want to break this cleanse properly and to do so I want to have one day of OJ then one day of OJ and soup and then one day of OJ, soup and salad. And I know that if I stay on there is a HIGH chance I will binge because it would have felt I have been cleansing/restricting for too long. Whereas if I stop now I am thinking clearly and know what I have to do.

Thank you for all the info on the minerals and raw food - I am definitely going to stock up on the green veggies when I go to the supermarket today. I doubt I will be able to do 100% raw but I am DEFINITELY going to increase my intake of raw vegetables and vegetables generally because I know very well that the best I have felt was when I was eating healthily (just as the worst I have felt was when I was just eating junk food).

Anyway, I don't have oranges on me at the moment so will wait til after work to have my OJ. I'm kind of excited! But best of all, I think this is the right thing to do.

Thank you 2dreem, for helping me find clarity on the matter! All the best!

PS What does the apple diet consist of? I'm not ready to start another cleanse (like you said I need to sort out my diet and minerals first) but am still intrigued!
