    Default how to juice fast?

    i think because of stress and pms, and being sick, today i have EATEN! a lot... and last night too. so now i feel very unhealthy and bad and i have to work tommorrow night .
    i am interested in doing a juice fast for a few days to cleanse my system and lose a little bit of weight and hopefully tone up (w/exercise of course.)
    i searched for info on here about juice fasting and couldnt find much, so im sorry if i'm posting something thats already here and i couldnt find.


    just wondering who has done this? and how is the best way to start? if i don't have time or access to a juicer what is the next best thing?
    any help would be great
    thanks

    Lots of water--- supposedly, take your weight in pounds and divide it by two and then drink that many ounces a day. For example, I, at 150, should drink at least 75 ounces. So....if that's a normal day, figure out what how much water during a fast.

    As far as juice, from what I've picked up-- no juice from the stores. Everything should be blended at home to avoid preservatives and added sugars. You might also consider adding some protein powder depending on the demands of your day.

    Also-- there was a pineapple thread I posted a couple days back in body business, and someone had a really kick ass website they suggested that showed sugars/calories/et al of fruit, including what's great about that type of fruit and what's bad. Look there to see what type of fruit (and veggies) you should mix for optimum results.

    good luck.

    p.s. just saw that part about not having a juicer....um, guess you've got to borrow unless you want to have jamba juice your fruits and veggies every day.
