I have been considering the Lemonade Fast/Diet myself and would appreciate all info on this as well as your progress, Mike. Have you been hungry at all (I read there shouldn't be a problem with that)? Since I work full time Monday through Friday, that was one of my concerns as well as whether or not you would start feeling weak and/or tired. Please keep us posted and Good Luck!!!
