Ok I'm not sure why I'm getting such negative feedback, also not sure what the difference is between the word juice or smoothie, I just watched the documentary, really fat people were losing lots of weight doing this fruit/veg fast for 60 days and I think one guy did it for 6 months who was like 429 pounds to begin with and got down to 220 pounds eventually.
It will be down to the amount of calories he is taking in over a sustained period of time being lower than his maintenance, nothing to do with his fruit and veg diet. You could do the exact same thing eating steak and chips every day if it was the same calories and it would probably be healthier!
You guys seem to have some big issues and problems with me doing this juice fast. The way you're all coming across is pretty much how you've always come across with me over the years. It feels like you're flaming me and you're basically laughing at me?
Not really sure where this anger and hatred is coming from? The thread title is "Starting a 10 day fruit/veg juice fast - Few questions" I was hoping someone would reply and say something along the lines of:
Because you're being taken in by one of these quick fix fads that single mums see on daytime tv and think oo yay i too can have that beach body in a week. If you want to lose weight, get on a healthy well balanced diet with a caloric deficit and do something that will last.
You can also find 20 sites and youtube videos saying how the shake weight is the best invention ever for bodybuilders and how doing 10 thousand situps a day will give you a flat stomach, doesn't mean it's true.Well I'm just seeing it as an investment, a one off, I also found a post on bodybuilding.com about fasting for bodybuilders and how they recommend we do it for 7 days once every 6 months. There's thousands of websites and forums talking about it, I must have read over 20 sites and watched youtube videos etc in last few days.
