It's been a long time since i did anything remotely healthy but I feel like it now.
I've heard u can detox your body by drinking water for a day and only having apples at meal times but how much water/apples would you need, and are there any other ways ? |

Fasting. Do a 5 day fast. the first two days you burn portein and then switch to fat. You can safely fast up till 40 days. In fact my friend did it when his girl ditched him at his birthday dinner after 2 years of dating.
Ive done it, and its awesome. You just drink water all day long. Totally cleans out your system.
Nothing hard about it. Just dont eat for 5 days. If you are interested in the working of it, just read up about it online, its pretty basic, but fascinating what it does chemically to you.

A 5 day fast is my no means easy. Well, at least I know I'd stuggle :p
Worth a try though. How much weight would you lose in that period out of interest? |

Another way to do it
Eat uncooked food for 3 days, then drink only juice for 3 days after that (only certain ones) .. completely cleans you up, feel so good afterwards. |

sounds icky, I think i could do 3 days of no eating, but i'd rather do water & fruits if i can, just something basic but not too drastic, I'm not concerned bout losing ne weight in it, tho that'd be nice, but trying to get my body into a non-lethargic state more than owt |

you typically lose a lb a day. and fasting is different from eating veggies. Normally you prepare yourself for a fast by eating veggies, But you arent supposed to even use broth when you are fasting. You want your body to stop pumping enzymes and into your stomach.
Also think of how long your intestines are. Give your body a ing break. Its working all day every day. Imagine the inner healing that will take place when HUGE mass of coils and muscle can be dormant. All energy goes into cleaning skin, ditching toxins, etc... |

I seriously need to cleanse my system. I've heard about this Detox thing before, one of my mates did it, and she said it was great. I dont know about not eating though. When you work hard all day (yeah, right!) you've gotta keep your energy levels up, and I haven't got any fat to burn.

im sticking to my guns on fasting. You literally can work 40 hour weeks, and do moderate exercise and not eat for probably 25 days. Youd lose 1-2 lbs a day, so cut it off where you feel comfortable. Most body builders fast for at least a week before a show to get to 0 percent fat. id say 90% of the people at the last comp i went to did that and I know 2 of them. You could see the veins in their stomach.
So it isnt like youll keel over and die. Fasting for 1 day kind of cleans your system, but at day 3 all sorts of interesting things start happening. At day 6 you get euphoria:crazy: its just good . try it. |
