Message: <blockquote data-quote="Deleted member 532959" data-source="post: 2354768">I genuinely thought that you were being optimistic for me. At least I did the first time you left me a nice little rainbow. This time there was a niggling doubt. I thought I'd ask. Sorry to have put you on the spot.And I get not wanting anything to do with me or this thread, but why come back just to put a downer on my posts? Why not just ignore me?Ok.Firstly, I am actually transitioning over to a fruit version of the diet. Juicing will definitely be a part of that programme. Not sure that changes anything you'd want to say.I'd be very interested to read some solid evidence explaining why such a plan couldn't/wouldn't work. I've read many accounts of people bringing their sugars under control using different fasting protocols, including juice-fasting; certainly on a whole-foods, plant-based diet, even when fruit is eaten ad-libitum.Other than that, write what you want (Though that might need to be done by 'pm')As I come ever closer to my 50th year on this planet, I find I'm far more pessimistic that I'd ever have wanted myself to be (When I was younger, imagining myself as an older guy). I think I'm being pragmatic, in the sense that I think that a HCLF approach makes a lot of sense. However, I can see that in this community that opinion is distrusted.If your point is that I'm being over-optimistic about my own ability to stick to the plan, then absolutely. I've tried to make it work on many occasions before. But others have done it; enough to show reasonable doubt. If it's possible, then barring out the fact that I might have just become too metabolically deranged, then I should at least have the potential to do it.Over-pessimistic? Yeah!

See ya there <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
