liquid fasting
today..yes today..is the first day of the liquid fast
"In a liquid fasting diet, generally everything you consume is run through a juicer or blender. In fact, most experts on the liquid fasting diets recommend you invest in a good juicer if you plan to try this diet. They caution against using a blender since blended foods still contain fiber which causes the digestive system to have to work just as it would if you were eating whole foods. A juicer will result in a product that is purely the juice of whatever you intend to consume.”

"How exactly do I go about a liquid fasting diet? First, you should decide how long you want to fast. Obviously, the longer you fast, the more toxins you will remove from your system and the more fat you will likely lose. A liquid fasting diet can last anywhere from three days to 40 days. Next, decide how much juice you will need to drink each day. This amount will depend on how much work you plan to do and how intense you wish your detoxification to be. The smaller the amount of juice you drink, the more intense your detox will be. However, you also need to take into consideration how much activity you will be doing and increase your juice intake accordingly."

Im assuming that this liquid diet s more geared to losing weight rather than gaining weight.
Im looking into investing on a juicer as well. Any good ones out there?
