Re: HELP! Desperately need to flush.

Crane, I love this advice! That's what I needed to hear. The woman who works for Julia Chang told me she did them with two young kids. But I can do it. You're giving me hope!

I've been so conflicted b/c I want that time she's with her dad to really just have the house to myself and relax, read, etc. and not be worried about a cleanse

Thanks!!

Anthony, I have estrogen dominance and it seems to stick around until I cleanse - I think my liver is sluggish in removing toxins, and I've been trying to lose weight. I gained 40 lbs during my pregnancy, and NEVER LOST A POUND - despite exercising and eating right. I nursed my daughter for three years, and b/c of those nursing hormones, I still didn't lose weight - even after I quite nearly a year ago (nursing) I've only lost maybe 12-14 lbs (because I juiced and worked my butt off) -When I've cleansed in the past, the weight has come off much more easily.

Plus I just want to rid toxins, detox, and "start fresh" :)

I have another question, though, and I've always wondered this - why doesn't it matter what we eat around the cleanse? Leading up to it is there fasting?

I prob. will do malic acid -
