Date: June 30, 2007 07:29PM Right I have fasted before, water and juice
upto 40 days before , 20 on water and 20 on juice. I am wanting to water fast for majority of July. Any advice or blogs of inspiration to draw my attention to? Is viable to do pure water for 30 days? Or should I consider juice, coconut water or MC? I feel this is the right thing for now Any thoughts, links, ideas would be most welcome Thanks Raw_dancer xxx Re: Water Fasting how long for?

Date: June 30, 2007 10:32PM hi rawdancer im about 2 go on a water fast also, throughout july,, would u like 2 b my fasting buddy? lol,, thats really amazing that you fasted up to 40 days! someday i hope i can make it that far,,, what were your results with the fasts?
i heard that apple cider vinegar can cleanse really well on a fast,i think im going 2 do this at the beginning and end of my fast,, i feel like i need 2 fast bc i am naturally not hungry at all,, ive gone 3 days b4 without eating, not intentionally fasting, but just bc i am not hungry,, so clearly my body is telling me something,,, why did you decide 2 fast?

Date: June 30, 2007 10:57PM I have a throat infection at the moment, havent had much of an appetite the last couple of weeks. Just feels like the right time, let myself heal and then continue onwards- adding coconut water and juices once I am recovered from this
Sure fasting buddies sounds good to me! 40 day fast was amazing but intense, lost 28lb, completly recovered from my crohns and well just got off the transitioning and started aiming for 100% raw. Anyways thanks for the reply!! Raw_dancer xx Re: Water Fasting how long for?

Date: June 30, 2007 11:12PM im sorry you are sick, im sure fasting will heal your throat :]
the coconut water is a really good idea, i think ill do drink that when i break my fast,, wow you healed from chrons that is amazing! so inspiring! and you lost 28 pounds, im so happy for you! haha this is really pepping me up, lol,, im fasting so i can heal from depression, acne, and lose weight so yepp thats what im hoping it will accomplish,,, i just want 2 ask u one more thing,, did the fast heal stretch marks? or scars? im just wondering if it starts to use scar tissue as a source of fuel,, im not saying you had stretch marks, if you did tho i would like 2 kno if it did,, srry for asking ssuch a personal question ok welljust tell me when you are starting your fast,, i suppose ill be starting in less than a week, just have 2 finish up my fruits ;] ttyl rawdancer :] Re: Water Fasting how long for?

Date: June 30, 2007 11:18PM hmm I am not too sure on the stretch marks, they are smoother and faded the ones from pregnancy anyway- general skin elasticity is a lot better.
I would say so I am starting err..today now it is here anyways! lol July Whenever your ready, happy to be ur fasting buddy.. will have to start a thread in the journal section. TY Raw_dancer Re: Water Fasting how long for?

Date: July 03, 2007 02:14AM Hi
Just curious. How do you guys water fast? I have always gotten really faint and shaky easily if I don't eat, although I am a little over weight now I know I would still feel funny. I have cut down on eating alot before during a given time, but it always really consumed my brain power so I didn't study or work so much as I need to do. I mostly can only fast if I have little obligation. Any advice or is this how everyone fasts? thanx. Re: Water Fasting how long for?

Date: July 04, 2007 02:58AM ive mostly slept throught my water fasts .. otherwise any energy expenditure results in me feeling shakey and sick
your body needs fuel to get through the day .. fasting is a time of rest In my opinion you should do nothing but sleep and relax when fasting ...Jodi, the banana eating buddhist Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
