Hey Phillipa. Yeah, you're right. The more I read about it and think about it, the less appealing a juice fast (or "juice feast" as the fans put it) seems. I'm thinking I'll just stick to a vegetarian diet with lots of fat and but not too many carbs or calories (its possible when you're dealing with plant-based fats) and hope for the best. I think after I drop a little bit of weight I'll be able to start exercising more and then I'll slowly, but surely, get to where I want to be.
Plus, looking back, juice fasting is *stressful*. Your stomach hurts, your head hurts, there's anxiety, insomnia, daytime drowsiness, weakness and generally a feeling of being unwell. I know our ancient ancestors often went without food, but now I know why they started farming: HUNGER SUCKS!
Anyway, thanks again.
