the idea of enemas makes me feel more than nervous and a little bit sick, never done it. I feel just eating raw is plenty cleansing u know ;) Especially if you do a fast one day a week or something nice and easy like that.

I am a little afeared to us an enema as well.. and considering Im still a big girl, i don't know if it will be hard to do or not. So far today I had a smoothie and i have been munching on veggies off and on. Still waiting. lol. Im going to juice some apples and ginger tonight to take to a weekly meeting I go to.. im hoping that the ladies don't bring anything chocolate because it will be sooo hard to resist. One thing that I HAVE noticed.. even just having juice for 3 days.. is that im craving juice right now, and I don't really want to EAT anything, even though I have craving. Does that make since. I figure as long as i stay raw and juice, I will still be doing my body good and still continue to detox slowly and lose weight.

I just got my juicer, so I'm planning on going on juice for a couple of days, but I've got EXACTLY the same issue... and I'm too scared to use an enema... so it's fibre pills and laxative teas for me...

Wish you the best, keep us posted on your fast ;)

I know I can get an enema bottle at drugstore.. just do not have the money until a couple more paychecks. Its going to be that tight around here money wise until then.

I will definitly read your experience! :)

You can get enema bottles from any drugstore, even Wal-Mart. I did a 10 day juice fast without supplements. I didn't find that you needed them. What WAS extremely beneficial to me when I had a gassy or upset tummy is pure peppermint essential oil. A drop or two on my tongue, and I was fine. Also, I found the simpler juices were muchmuchmuch better for me.

I blogged my experience. Feel free to read, if you like. :) Congrats on your three day journey!
