Great pharm info, BG!

bro777- while it's good that you realize there may be different effects from outside sources on your medication, have you tried other options than a juice fast? There's not much wrong with juice, however, it's typically not a long-lasting option for someone with a lot of weight to lose. By simply drinking juice, you're missing out on a lot of other essential nutrients your body uses, and by proxy, your metabolism may not be used to the sudden change, resulting in a less effective metabolism.

The Glycemic Index is a great, healthy, and safe way to lose weight, especially since people with obesity have a higher risk of type 2 Diabetes. It's designed for diabetic people to establish a stabler blood sugar, but it's also great for anyone who is obese. This diet (and by diet, I mean adopting a healthy way of eating foods, not a temporary thing) allows you to use your body's use of insulin to establish a healthy blood sugar throughout the day, instead of peaks and valleys which contribute to hunger and binge eating.

I'm at risk for Diabetes because of a medical condition, and at first, it was a bit difficult to follow, but after the 3rd week of keeping my nose to the grindstone, I began to see a change in energy, mood, and I was losing weight. Slowly, but it's less inclined to creep back up, like with yo-yo diets.

Try Googling some info on the Glycemic index if you're interested. otherwise, bets of luck!
