    Cool Hi leeleelocs

    I did a 7day 50% grapefruit juice and 50% spring water fast, and sometimes added oj to the mixture. I did it to try to get some detoxing going out of my body and to lose some weight. I lost around 8lbs, and felt some detox, not a lot.

    I did the OJ fast for about 10 days. I had originally planned for 14, but it was driving me crazy. The entire experience was horrible, not anything like I had imagined it would be. I had hunger pangs the entire length of my fast. I've been reading and reading about fasting and it always says the hunger pangs go away by the 2nd or 3rd day. Maybe I wasn't drinking enough? Anyhow, one night I had some terrible detox symptoms--I made a post about it--my heart rate was really fast and I felt so nauseous. I ended up vomitting and felt better, but I think a couple days after I broke my fast. I ended up shedding about 8-9 pounds, which was nice, but I quickly put it all back on afterward as I ended my fast just as bad cravings were kicking in.
