Oh, yes, you can!!!...Re: If I cannot do juice fasting, what is a good diet?
Eurovw,
We have the same kind of muscular dystrophy. I don't know how far you've progressed, but I know you're not in a chair. I'm not either. Listen, I've done a bunch of 1 day juice fasts, several 3 day juice fasts, a 5 day, a 14 day, a 30 day, a 45 day and another 30 day juice fast, all with the same dystrophy you have. It isn't EASY to make the juices every day, but you CAN. It takes me about 1 1/2 hours a night to make a half gallon of juice, dilute with distilled water, pour into jars, place in the fridge, clean the juicer, and then the kitchen. I do the fruits and greens on one night and the carrots and beets on the other night as I make Potassium broth. You just have to schedule it in. SOMETHING in your evening schedule is going to have to give. While I clean up the kitchen at night (oh how I fuss to Uny about having to do this), I can also listen to Schulze dvds, chick flicks, or Youtube videos since my kitchen is open to my family room.
As far as "I have a full time job," what everybody in your situation who is on the IP does is take a cooler to work with them. They put "the day's" juices, teas, Superfood, IF#2, charcoal, and tinctures in there and pull out what they need. It comes out to about a drink every half hour. They do their sunning and barefooting at noon, or they do their workout. You have to learn how to multitask.
As far as feeling weak while juice fasting, you increase the amount of Superfood you're taking. I don't think ANYBODY should do a long term juice fast without adding Superfood(s) to their program.
While you are at work (and I know you work in a medical office), you will have to talk to your supervisor about your program and how you have to do these juice and tea protocols. I don't know if (s)he will let you have a beverage with you at your work station, especially if it is a small space. Perhaps they will let you run to the break room or men's room every hour and let you gulp down your goodies.
If you are going to do the IP, Eurovw, and you don't know how badly I want you to, you HAVE to do at least a 30 day juice fast whether you THINK you will get weaker or not. There will be days when you DO feel weaker (but it's really just your body either detoxing or processing oils, etc). You absolutely will not be allowed to eat ANY cooked food, meat, dairy products, fish, or ANYTHING other than raw fruit and vegetables, raw nuts and seeds, and sprouted raw grains, including dehydrated food.
Dr. Schulze said many times he would not accept a patient who wouldn't buy a juicer and start drinking at LEAST a
quart (a gallon is best) of home-juiced fresh juice every day.
Take some time and decide if you want to the IP or not. I hope you do.
Best wishes for fantastic health,
Wings
