Re: My post-fast plan... feedback please!


Hi Lilacsophia,

If you are comfortable listing your starting weight and amount of weight lost so far, i would be happy to give you my opinion/best estimate.  Meanwhile, you are certainly right that bananas are high in potassium, and there are also several excellent "digestively simple" choices including Carrot juice, Orange Juice and Tomato Juice.  I suspect beet juice and spinach juice are good sources as well.

Foods High in Potassium : Potassium Rich Foods

Foods which are rich in potassium include apricot, banana, baked potato, sweet potato, beet greens, yogurt, tomato puree, prune juice, carrot juice, tomato juice, spinach, lentils, beans, milk, etc. The potassium content in some foods in a serving size are given in the following table/chart. The values above 500mg are considered high in potassium and lower than 500 mg as low potassium foods.
