Thanks to everyone for all the input. I did not decide to start a cleansing FAST because of damage I've done to my body. I thought it would be a good way to gain control and detox (just from everyday food/eating). I have decided against a total fast (lord knows I don't want to casue metabolism problems).I will try maybe the egg FAST (I really want to cut out the meat for a week or two). I'll keep you posted on how that goes.
Thanks again for all your advice. I'm really glad I found this forum :-)
