Someone once asked about green tea for weight loss - something else that helps me is juice fasting 1 day a week. It is hard - but if anyone is interested in whats involved, let me know - I can share what I do...

Yes - i just FMd some ladies who were interested... its the best thing to clean you out after all of these parties and dinners...
The best thing to do is to 1st experiment with different juices - fruit juices will be better tasting, butobviously more full of sugar. Experiment with various veg. juices - go to Dr. B Well in Plainview - there are all combinations, plus adding an apple to veg. juices makes them less bitter
sweeter options are anything with beets and carrots... a bit more sugar than other veg. juices, but certainly better than other junk you may put in your body during the day!!!
Ladies - it is hard, you may be hungry at 1st - I know I get hungry - experiment with juices you like 1st before deciding to drink just juices for the day - oh, packaged juices dont count!
you can also drink tea throughout the day along with the juices....

One day a week?
I would think I'd be starving that once the next day came, I'd eat anything in sight. And that would defeat the whole purpose!

That would give me a big stomach ache! I avoid juice in general. Too much sugar.

You cant drink juice with sugar!!! Only vegetable juices - or a citrus juice in the AM and veg. juice for the rest of the day - it must be fresh squeezed - so if you pay for it, it can get expensive... no bottled or carton juices!!!
I find it detoxes me - and I am hungry the day of, but I wake up feeling fine the next day and eating normally - if anything I eat better because I detoxed my body a little, and am emptier of the foods that make you crave things like salt and sugar - that is why we get hungry and have cravings - our bodies are toxic and crave more crap...

technically, yes - I just drink 2 or 3 tops - I buy them and they get expensicve - we have a juicer at home, so if we have access to it, we try and make more - the thing is, it needs to be fresh, so you cant make the juices the night before or anything like that - even frozen isnt the best for nutrients...
