re: any juicers out there?

That sounds good! My family ate raw for a while. We loved it.

Quoting Shannonsfirst:" Im going to do it! I read this on a site and I think Ill start with this for 7 days. If you can eat ... [snip!] ... that I strongly advice you to follow. . Drink AT THE VERY LEAST half-a-gallon of water daily during this pre-fast period."

I think i will do this. I actually went raw for a week(then my mom came to town and i got off track) and am planning on doing it again after doing the juice fast. but i am also doing this to get off my addiction to fast food, processed food, and soda....also caffine. I am so addicted to caffine i cannot imagine my day without coffee or redbull. its hard.

when are you starting?

Ive been dying to detox ever since pregnancy...and then..well life got in the way.

Im going to get the juicer tomorrow, and start eating like that suggestion...upping my water, lean meats. So maybe by this time next week? I read a mans blog who did it for 8 weeks (56 days) and he lost 50lbs!!!
I would give my right leg to lose 50lbs.

yeah definatly!! I will be able to get my juicer by then. For now im on a raw food diet. Nothing processed, no bread, no dairy. I am eating fruits and vegetables whenever i feel like it and drinking strictly water.

I've actually found that i need to do this not only for weight loss, but also because when i eat processed food i get EXTREME stomach pains. Like to the point that i feel like someone is stabbing me in my intestines. And i only get these pains when i eat processed foods and carbs. Today i've done really good and no pain. YAY!

actually funny thing about that. All these processed and fast food companies have scientists in a lab working with chemicals and trying to find ways for us to crave their food. They do it intentionally so that we will be addicted to it.

actually vegetables, fruits and unprocessed foods would taste better to us if we didnt have these foods and chemicals in our body.

I did juicing for 60 days and I lost 85 pounds. I don't regret a moment of it. It was the best thing I did. I have not gain any weight back, and I have not juice in 6 month. If anything I continue to lose weight. I was 290 pounds and know I weight 145 pounds. I recommend it to anyone that really want to lose weight fast. Your body will feel much better and u will feel great about yourself. Go for it u won't regret it.!

are you talking about juicing with a juicer? if so, go for it and make sure you go crazy with different veggies and fruits!
not unhealthy at all, dont listen to that.

I lost 90 lbs about 7 yrs ago just watching what I ate, drinking tons of water, or water with crystal light, and of course working out and changing my work outs...I kept it off even after two pregnancies later. Before I got pregnant with this one I did juicing if I was in a rush or just didn't get the chance to make something else for dinner and I felt a lot better. Also I would check into "Clean Eating" someone else on here got me into it and it is amazing and it really made it much easier for me.
