Meal suggestions for a fast/cleanse?

I'm currently getting into something of a fast/flush/cleanse for my system, obviously focusing heavily on drinking water/cranberry juice (real, not cocktail), and trying to restrict my diet for a week to fruits, vegetables, and proteins with little to no salts (or other spices), carbohydrates, or fats (olive oil is probably the only fat I'd like to use when cooking).

So basically given that's how I'm trying to alter my diet, I'd really like to try and at least have a bit of variety in what I eat. I'm thinking:

Breakfast: Mostly fruit and/or a 1-2 eggs (whites only).

Lunch: Veggies, maybe a small amount of grilled meat or whole grain pasta.

Dinner: Grilled chicken or beef with a side of some kind of either steamed or sauteed veggie.

I know these are pretty basic - but I am trying to create at least a few different complete meals to fit those kinds of dietary needs. So I'm looking for any suggestions you all might have to help.

Thanks

What are you doing this for? Weight loss? Body Detox?

You are probably better off eating 4-6x per day in fist full sizes of 5 food groups.

Drug test. No carbs, low fat, low salt/spice is an absolute must.

cranberry juice, water, and sweat - sauna, bikram yoga, lots of cardio

Use coconut oil to cook with, as well as to use in other finished dishes. If your trying to cleanse/fast, then u can't be eating a balanced diet. The body won't do what u want it to w/o a serious restriction...with that said, I would do a juice fast for about 3-5 days for a cleanse...or if u think u can handle it, water fast will have u cleaned out real quick, as well as being a bit euphoric

I think this has been mentioned before, but...



This will clean you out, along with a light spinach diet.

By the way, if u are cutting carbs, u better increase your fat intake as well as protein...u will have no energy if u cut both carbs and fat. Again, coconut oil and EVOO are great for the body to run on, especially the coconu oil as its a saturated fat.

Trying to do a minimum of ten miles on the bike a day and about a gallon and a half of water/cranberry.

Huh, never even thought of cooking with coconut oil - pretty good for you?

In any event, yeah - I'm definitely pushing for diet restriction right now, which will probably be hardest just because I absolutely crave carbs pretty regularly.

I don't know much about the cleansing power of wheatgrass, but I know where I can get it fresh right down the block, so I'll definitely indulge.

Thanks guys

Yes its very good for you! Its heat stable so u should use it to cook with, and never cook with EVOO...that is heating it up as it will turn black and then becomes a free radical, and thats no good.

if your gym has it, i'd say definitely jump in the sauna for a good 10mins after every work out/cardio session. It'll definitely open up and clean out your pores.

I also like to cycle this into my diet for a good week every month or so, tons of vitamins

I l-l-l-loooooove that shit!

Fantastic!

Is it weird that I actually really just enjoyed the flavor of my first wheat grass shot?



I was under the impression this stuff was supposed to taste awful. Just a bit gritty, but not bad.

Not awful, just like grass, which isn't what the human palette is designed to enjoy

Posted by nchs09 on Aug-11-2008 20:35:

Not for a minimum of a week, maybe as many as two to three - and two days ago.



And Mario - how is doing what I have to do to get a job a "pain in the ass just for smoking pot"?



It's either pass it and get a job or fail it an be unemployed - as far as I'm concerned, I'd do pretty much whatever I have to to pass.

And you can't use ready clean? I can personally vouche that product works 100% of the time.

That's the thing - I've never used one of those products before, and have had a friend who's failed a test because they could detect the masking agent from whatever drink it was he took.

I'm just wary of them is all, I guess.

I guess if you didnt smoke you wouldnt have to do all this....
Just seems changing your diet sounds like a pain.

readi clean is not a guarantee and i definitely wouldn't chance it

if it's in a week, you smoked two days ago, you exercise, sweat, and drink tons of water, you'll probably be good but i suppose it can't hurt to use the readi-clean shit too just in case. all that stuff does is dilute your urine but add nutrients (so if they decided to test it it wouldn't seem diluted) and maintain its color.

that and you're a skin-n-bones guy so you don't have to worry about it sticking to fat i think. you'll be good.


i'd say do what you're doing and hope you don't get a piss test for two weeks instead of one. diuretics like coffee and cranberry juice couldn't hurt either.

Well that's really a great lecture and all on how I should be living, but it doesn't exactly have anything to do with me or the situation I'm in, now does it?

Job offer came from out of nowhere, little to no preparation time or I would have begun this all much sooner, but there's really no point in even discussing that as it doesn't exactly help me at this point.

Thanks Natek - I'm definitely taking the "do whatever I can" approach for the time being, and I really don't mind changing my diet/pissing every ten minutes for a week to get a job I want.
