Hi to all who read,
Ive just started a juice fast today which I plan to carry out for 30 days. Im very stoked about it but I also have fears of letting myself down. Im not too savy on the exact way to do this thing, but I have a jist of things from what i have read and researched.
I stuck to fruit juice today as I was just not ready to take the leap into vegi juice land. I will be making a vegi broth tomorrow for more potassium. The main reason I have decided to do this fast is because I have recently found that I have rheumatiod arthritis. Due to my sceptical opinions of the "medical world" and after researching the actual facts about my condition, i realized that i had to find something alterantive to the life sucking drugs my Dr. wanted to start me on.
I would really really really appriciate any help or info regarding how the best way to structure my juice fast would be. I mean, I dont really know when to do vegi when to do fruit and how much of which is ok. today i stuck with fruits, water and tea along with many pages of inspiration from curezone!
I hope the rest of my days will be somewhat a smooth ride. However, reflecting on my entier past life of drugs, booz, and terrible terrible food addictions i find that wishful thinking.
I just want to list a few conditions I have suffered from in case any one can help me further or guide me to the right kind of fasting method.
emotional issues of not being able to let go (anal retentive)
times of sever Depression and isolation / antisocial behavior
suffered from emotional and physical abuse as a child
many many years of emotional eating or "binging"
substance abuse
years of constipation again..anal retentive
instability
anorexia with the help of Ritalin
bulemia
antideressant medication
weight gain leading to more depression
indicisiveness that takes over my life!!!!
never getting around to the things i imagine my self doing, although i dont do jack s@#$% all day!
just sheer frustration in myself
not connected to god or spirituality
lost. IM LOST!!!
i hope my cleanse helps me. I daydream about all the changes my body can go through and i read about other peoples experiences and wish that i can have the same.
anyways...thanx for reading. I hope anyone that can help me would..cuz i really need it.
oh...btw...my name is nikki and i just turned 27.
bye for now.

MoreThis is a reply to # 1,097,486Good luck! I'm on day nine of a thirty day juice fast. I'm duing fruits and veggies the first 15 days and just veggies the last 15. I've got Candida issues so I need to eliminate the sugar. I'll be doing some serious bowel and parasite cleansing when I finish this fast. This is my 2nd juice fast. My first was back in September. It lasted 22 days. I felt great the whole time. Unfortunately, I went back to my old habits (due to stress & the holidays) after the first fast. Keep us posted.

Thanx for your reply. Well i just finished day 4 and i have to say it was better than day 2 and 3. Im still not really sure about how much of what to drink and i keep making sweet juice mixes by nature. no veggie juice yet!!!! I have to have a banana in it or else!
but i dont think im drinking enough. I have had 3 cups of juice and lots of that vegi broth that runs as clear as water. Unfortunaly i have only lost 3 pounds in the 4 days :( after all the starving...i really want to lose 25 pounds by the end of my fast and get really fit and super healthy. I am doing it for reasons other than vanity too!
if you have any dosage recommendations please let me know. I have tones of energy in the a.m but later in the p.m im drained!
my BM's are taking affect with the use of a laxative and they are quite you know...waterey..(sorry) but im not seeing anything other than juice fiber. Hmmm...makes me wonder.
If u know anything i should! please!
thanx again- Re: The first of 30 days 1234567

I am on a day 4 today (well, I am counting days not after I stopped eating but rather when my stomach supposed to be empty after all food I ate digested :/... :))
So now here is around 7 in the morning and my fourth day in the process :)
I heared and read many times here that better to drink fruit juices in the morning and vegi juices in the evening (due to the 'things' the do for a body).
Generally speaking, fruit juices stir up toxins and acids in the body, thereby stimulating the eliminative processes. Vegetable juices, on the other hand, soothe the jaded nerves and work in a much milder manner. They carry away toxic matter in a gentle way (This info from the net).
Juice fiber??? Are u getting rid of a pulp from ur juices???... I strain ALL my juices using tea strainer with very small 'holes' in it. Fiber is a food for ur stomach and if u drink juices without straining them then u STILL give ur stomach food even in easy digestible way. Do u still feel hunger?.. If yes then it could be a reason. Anyways, no fiber - the more rest for my stomach during a fast - the better results :)
I am planning to go for number of days as well. One I have fasted 7 days and it was great feeling after that. I cant say I have plenty of energy but I felt GOOD. Plus I could say my digestion process was (felt) better. So IDEALLY I would love to go for 30 days (coz I read about benefits of it). Though I want to be realistic first of all. My first aim is 7 days and as soon as 'I am there' then 10 days and so on :)
Today after waking up I looked in a mirror and noticed I am loosing weight. Yes I needed to loose a bit but not much. In general a bit of more than half a stone (4-5 kg). Now, according to my weight scale I am almost there and it concerns me coz it is just 4th day and it is STILL a lot of days to go. I know it is not stable weight loss and I culd gain it easily after but I still dont want to be too skinny. My weight loos limit is from now on a stone. I am 5'9 (and a half :)) and my current (not stable) weight is 157 (when I started my fast it was 165). My weight limit (max!) is 143. Hopefully I will stop loosing weight that dramatically :/...
Ok, better to get ready for work. Catch all of u later :))

This is a reply to # 1,099,832Hi mangojuice, congratulations on your progress so far! You mentioned that you have a history of long standing constipation and are taking laxatives.
I would suggest that you consider switching from the laxatives to cleansing enemas while you are fasting. The best and most gentle enemas are the ones using an enema bag with warm salt water a few degrees above body temperature.
I am a firm believer that during a water or juice fast, daily enemas are essential to achieve maximum success.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.
Best wishes for your fast!
Valerie

This is a reply to # 1,097,547Hi Rick67 :)
I am Nadia :).. Congratulations on ur day 9 of ur juice fast! Are u here partly for weight loss?? If no can u tell me is it possible to slow down the process of my weight loss? Well, I know my body is wiser and it is not up to me to decide. I hope it will slow down soon :/... I also have candida issue. But I am drinking both juices. For me the main thing now to stick to this fast and I need to enjoy it. So I drink both kind of juices. May be closer to the end of my fast or at some point I will do about a week being just on water so I could fix my candida issue. Plus it will be easier for me to Water Fast at that point coz my body will have less toxins and, as a result, I could tolerate that fast easier.
Ok, better run an keep us updating! :)))

This is a reply to # 1,099,849Hi everyone... I'm Claudia, on day 2 of an intended 40 day juice fast. I'm pretty excited. I did the Lemon Cleanse for 14 days 2 months ago, and then did 5 or 6 gallbladder/liver flushes, in which I eliminated about 200 small stones. I went back to my bad eating habits as well as drinking (i don't drink all the time, but when I do, I can drink a lot), and am still having problems with my digestion. That is my reason for this fast. I'm toying with eliminating fruits and just having veggies... but I do so like the fruit juices. So... nice to meet you, hope we all reach our goals and end up feeling rejuvinated, as I SO hope to...
