then when im done i will slowly bring healthy food back into my food rutien

Answer 1

I don't think you should eat any chicken with the salad. Vegetables are completely beneficial for your body, and while chicken is good too, it won't put you at the highest advantage. Let it be purely vegetables.  

Answer 2

um.. fasting means not eating anything

"clearing your system" is kind of can't really be done, or done that way, considering that your enterocytes (cells lining your intestines) turnover every two weeks and your blood and lymph all in different intervals.

it can take weeks to months for you to feel/ get rid of effects of bad diet.

You should eat lots of healthy food and for life to stay healthy. like keeping the room clean instead of trying to have a massive cleaning sweep every month. Our body just does not work that way

Oh if you want to clean out the bowels, then try fiber supplements or powders that dissolve in water or drinks.  

Answer 3

When changing your diet, you should always consult with your Doctor first.

Answer 4

Stop fasting and bring healthy food into your routine now.  Fasting for two weeks will damage your body.

Answer 5

That would be okay for maybe a week but two weeks is damaging-

Answer 6

Fasting is NEVER recommended by nutritionists/dietitians because it is not healthy for your body.

It is strictly an untrue rumor that fasting "clears out your system"

I suggest that you forget about fasting right now and just start trying to eat healthier. It would be better to eat unhealthy for a day than to fast for a day because fasting not only affects you mentally all day, but also deprives your body of nutrients.

So yeah, just start eating healthier and you will be fine... No need to fast.
