3-Day Juice fast

by confuzzled dude Mon May 20, 2013 9:47 pm

Made it through without any hiccups. Just finished the last juice, they say 5-day day fast/cleanse would be ideal nonetheless not a bad deal.

Will it help reduce my weight by 100 pounds ?

Sure but only if you fast for 10 weeks.

by Guest Mon May 20, 2013 10:20 pm

I want to start the two days a week upavasam thing soon. Juice fast is too much and is not something i can stick to. Three of my friends regularly do the 2x/wk upavasam (fasting) and it's very feasible. They eat only fruits/veggies and take lots of fluids until evening and eat something light (eg: sabudana kitchdi) for dinner. Seems healthy.

No need to follow any diets. Be aware of how body works and how/when food/liquid(water) is to be taken.

** nice, very inspiring. but maple syrup juice etc sounds bad, it probably contuse high fructose corn syrup. anyhow, this makes me want to do a 3-day smoothie thing. smoothies are very filling and nutritious. no cayenne and maple syrup and all that weird stuff. I'll let you know how it goes. have a nice day!

That (Lemon/Cayenne) is Master Cleanse diet formula. I do make my own vegetable juice on a daily basis but too much of a hassle to prepare in bulk that lasts for 3 full days so I resorted to pre-made ones yet organic.

Pretty good, feel lighter. Wasn't hungry last couple of days but I'm sure hunger will be back soon now that I started my day with fine homemade Idly.

by Impedimenta Tue May 21, 2013 10:01 am

interesting because of the maple syrup mix. I have my own juice recipe and it includes kale. it's a delightful mixture of tasteless veggies. no fruits. Rolling Eyes

so, what do you have your idlis with? gun powder? TN samabar? or the maharashtrian fake sambar? just an innocent question.

No Maharashtrian fake Samb(h)ar, had with Allam pachhadi (Ginger chuteny). Gun powder used to be one of my favorites but haven't had in ages. Do you know we have our own version of Sambar, known as Pappu Charu. I'm not a big fan of Kale but am fine as long as it is not the only ingredient, I had one yesterday (Kale only) sure enough it did mess up my taste buds for an extended period; what other vegetables are part of your recipe.

Yeah sure. But why a 36 hour journey over a 6 hour one? And that too while starving yourself. You can get the same result while binging on some Chinese or Old Country Buffet. Or butter chicken in Indian buffets.

because it feels good (placebo) to tell one self they've detoxed, with the imagery of all sorts of poisons being sucked out of the body by divine intervention so the protagonist can emerge with a halo around his/her self at the end of the "detox". they dont get the same feeling if they just take a huge dump.

Anything that "works" is bound to have side effects. So, eg. if you have a colonoscopy due, you won't, in your right mind, do a 5-day cleanse before it. You will be handed mg citrate. But you can't keept taking it unprescribed and unwatched. Hence the fear, specially if you are chemical-phobic. Better to take ample amount of things, that may or may not work, but won't hurt. I think that's the difference in approach of these people.

(am just trying to guess different school of thots, and may or may not switch between different approaches. I have personally used neither of the 'cleansings' so far.)

The problem with your cleansing stuffs is that it disturbs the gut flora and balance. And, what is the purpose of this cleansing stuff - if I might ask? If you dont have any GI problem that you can think of and you are regular in your input/output functions in quantity and quality, then you should not even bother about these. Of course, you can skip eating once a week or even some regular timing for eating foods. I know of someone who does not eat anything after 5 PM. Those make perfect sense and the body will adjust to these "routines"

remember - no body likes shocks and surprises, no body.

I can't do a smoothie-diet for three days, especially not on weekdays. I had a smoothies in the AM like I do most days and 4h later I was so hungry I found myself in the cafeteria eating a complete meal that was nice and warm and filling. If I hadn't eaten, I wouldn't be able to do any work.
I feel like even if I did a smoothie thing during a full weekend, I'd need like upto 8 servings of smoothies to get through the day. But I like doing this stuff.

Sure.

As long as one is healthy with no major health problems, and it's not something extreme..three days of juicing up seems to be okay..unless, it becomes habitual like that coffee enema thing:)

cheated in the morning, had sabudana khichhdi for breakfast. Ate mangoes. For lunch, resisted delicious chicken masala made by the div-ex-bil last night. Also resisted puran poli that I gave to kids. Ya well, picked some potato sabzi while serving son. There was a box of un-eaten strawberries in the fridge. Dumped all of it in an osterizer, along with a banana, and some mango. Used a little milk to make it stir, and just drank one FULL BIG glass of it. approximately 12-13 oz. I don't think i will be hungry for another 2 hours. Will eat cherries then and/or grapes.

The thing that works for me: Tell yourself you can have a full meal, without any restrictions, only AFTER you

I. 1. Drink a big glass of fruit and almond milk shake or 2. have a bowl of fruits or veggies or 3. at least two fruits or 4. a bowl of sprouted moong dal before every meal.
II. Drink green tea instead of water during the meal.

The above two make you more than half full and you end up eating very less of your meal. The best part is you won't feel as if you are depriving yourself of anything.

Dinner last night was light italian meal. Following the same model today. Only raw fruits/juice + baby carrots + tea all day. Gonna hog desi dinner and dessert. Then will try to walk. Will try to do this 1-2 days per week.

Side effects: Major loss of water. Either coz of this "diet", or I somehow got uti, lol. Will find out. Gonna weigh myself only after 3-4 days of regular diet.

by seven Mon May 27, 2013 5:56 pm

the problem with all these diets is, when you go on them you also go off them. they will only give u temporary results.
make a lifestyle change and only then you will get permanent results.

eat a lot and work very hard (physical labor). thats the secret to a long healthy life. and this was told to me by a very healthy beautiful 65 y/o
