30+ Day Fast question & Tongue
Posted by: Raine ()
Date: October 08, 2006 02:06AM

I do my best to maintain an 80% raw diet.

For those of you that have sucessfully fasted for 28-40 days, have you noticed anything different about your body towards the end of the fast that you don't normally notice if a short fast is done?

I've accomplished 3-5 days fasts and am now on day 6 of a 30 day fast that I hope to complete.

I can't recall where - it was on a different site though - I recall reading that mucus from the colon walls expells near the end of a month long fast. Have any of you experienced this?

Also, approximately how long does the tongue have the whitish coating?

raine,

when i fast i am prudent to scrape my tongue clean
several times a day to accelerate the detox.

and in the past i've seen plenty of mucoid plaque
eliminated. mine looked like long white string.

30 days is very impressive. best of luck and keep
us posted.

I'm on day 7. Only 23 days to go!

So far so good. I was doing this for health reasons so I have been surprised by the emotional/spiritual side of things that have arisen. I've also had a couple days where I have wanted to sleep a fair amount and I'm tired by 10:30pm -- I'm normally very nocturnal by nature.

I've also lost 11 pounds and 7.5 inches....yeah! I am doing pilates every morning to keep the muscle tone.

How long of a fast are you going for?
