Raw fruit and veggie for 2 weeks

My diet is bad so to start a cleaning diet I would go on a raw fruit and veggie diet for 2 weeks with 3 meals per day and throw in a glass of fresh juice then after 2 weeks start putting some seeds and nuts and build from that. Does this sound like a good plan for a newbi?

-My personal experience / opinion is that you should determine (roughly) what percentage of fresh raw plant food you have been consistently eating and comfortable with right NOW.....and make a plan to simply increase this by 1-2% weekly until you reach your goal.

-Do the research & focus on the fruits & vegetables that you LOVE. Don't force yourself to eat stuff you hate. Eat whatever sauces / spices you need to increase your percentage.......and commit to a lifetime process.

-Power to you!

You could also try a Master Cleanse and THEN a raw diet. I have heard that this eases the transition as your body has the time to rid itself of the toxins of your old diet before you begin the new one. Either way, good luck!

Master Cleanse (also known as the Lemonade Diet) is a cleansing fast whereby for a period of ten days you drink exclusively a specially formulated lemondae (fresh lemon juice, tepid water, maple syrup, cayenne pepper) to cleanse your body. You also drink a "cleansing tea" each evening to help, um, speed things up through your colon. Let me see if I can find the link. My wife did the master cleanse (I tried, but couldn't do it, I could not stop thinking about eating food, I guess my will to cleanse wasn't so strong!).

I kind of prefer the idea golden suggested at the beginning - simple but effective. If it doesn't work, try something else. Everyone else's ideas are good too, but I like golden's idea best.

Love, Ally
