Well, I have been sporatically skin brushing and I was scraping my tongue diligently throughout the fast...the gunk is gone now, but the tongue is still white. I have decided to continue the lemonade fast for two extra days for a total of 12 and then I am doing fruit juice (variety of fruits) for another day or two and then raw for as long as I can stand it. That way I will be able to continue flushing toxins out of my body.
today is day 10 (yahoo!!) and I feel good! I definitely think I will do some salt water flushing tonight and tomorrow and Sunday. And perhaps on the days I juice fast too.
As for juicers, I have a Champion juicer which I absolutely LOVE. I don't know how much you want to spend, but there are some others out there that some folks say are better. Champion doesn't do wheatgrass. But it has this great little attachment so that you can turn it into an ice cream/sorbet maker...You can run frozen fruit through it and it comes out like soft serve - it tastes delicious and is great for my sweet tooth days (my favorite is raspberry and banana)
Thank you for all your advice - I'll keep hanging around the post as long as I am fasting!!
