Real WEIGHT LOSS
Regenerate your digestive system and organs. Speed up your metabolism...
Hey everyone! ok here's the deal..I'm 19, somewhat experienced with Water Fasting (the longest I've ever gone was 21 days) and I've also done variations of "fasts" for much longer (i.e., 1 blended fruit & ice drink per day for 2 months). I've been dying to start a longer fast for quite a while now, but never did make it past a few days. I don't think I was prepared before, but I am now. I'm currently 5'7.5 and 130-135, I don't know for sure b/c but I won't step on the scale since I'm so hideous, and it really really depresses me. My normal weight is around 110-115; last year I weighed 98, so I've obviously gained a significant amount in the past 6 months, and I really just want to lose what I gained recently from eating so excessively. I also want to cure a stomach condition that I have, and clear my head (i always feel so "enlightened" during fasts), then start eating Macrobiotically again when it's all over and I feel rejuvenated. (plus a whole bunch of other reasons, I could go on forever). So that's my status- I'd like to know more about you guys too so we all know where we're coming from!
I just read Sindy's post about starting tomorrow (Saturday January 29) and I decided that I'm 100% in! Tomorrow's as good a day as any...I'm tired of postponing it. So...I am starting the second that I wake up tomorrow, and I would love love love to have some encouragement from you guys- and to have someone to report back to.. that always helps me stay motivated and feel more responsible for sticking with it.
From what I read, here's the list of people that will be starting this together:
-Sindy
-angelsdreams
-37074
-aliczek
-Jenni19
and anyone else who decides to join tomorrow, let us know!
I'm also wondering what kind of fasting each of you are planning on doing. Only water, or are you consuming fresh juices too? I don't have a juicer so I might have to go with all water.. I was considering the Master-Cleanse that I've heard about, but I don't know much about it. does anyone have experience with that?
Have you guys been preparing at all? eating less than you usually do..raw foods or anything?
Good luck everyone!

This is a reply to # 691,426I'm 20, 5'2, 125 lbs. I used to weigh 105, but was put on anti-depressants because of herniated discs, fibromyalgia, PCOS, chronic fatigue, etc. I am looking to lose 20 lbs. The meds totally messed me up. I am off of them, have been for about 4 months, but I have not lost the weight. I feel horrible. I have been eating excessively and I need to stop this and get my emotions under control once and for all. I also have pleurisy right now (an inflamation of the lungs)and am in a tremendous amount of pain. Honestly, I have been eating HORRIBLY for the past 3 weeks and haven't gotten on the bandwaggon and just fasted! I need to do this for myself: for healing, weight loss, emotional control and sanity. I also enjoy the enlightenment I get while fasting. I plan on drinking about 80-90% water, and possibly a bit of cranberry juice and green tea per day. I desperately need encouragement and someone to talk to during this time, as I am depressed and fed up with it all. I would like to fast until I lose the weight, but I just plan on fasting for 10 days to start. I sure hope we all stick together and get going on this! Good luck to you all. Blessings!

This is a reply to # 691,428heyyy! yay..it sounds like all of us have really similar goals...getting in control of our eating habits/emotions, healing health problems, mental clarity, and obviously dropping excess poundage... It sounds like you guys have the right idea...not setting goals that are too extreme. I know in my heart that I can make it the full length too- but I think I'm gonna try to divide the days into increments. Like..just train myself to think of this fast in periods of 5 days at a time, or 10 days a time, either way. Just because it seems less far-fetched if I feel like I've accomplished something every few days..and that'll help me keep going.
and personally..I'm not even weighing myself until at least 10 days from now. I don't care about my exact weight right now, all I know is that I need to feel better, and I know that I will once this gets going...so my condition right now is irrelevant for me. Anything will be an improvement...
So I was reading all of these excerpts from the "Fasting to Freedom" book online, and I printed out like 20 pages of info, and just reading about it seems to really help me focus and direct my energies toward this goal. I think I might buy that book.. it could really help me stay motivated the whole time, even when my energy starts dropping. I also have a book called "The Circle" by Laura Day which is really inspiring and can help you achieve anything you set your mind to... I read it everytime I start a fast. Inspirational books could help if you all are interested :)
alright well today I've had 3 glasses of water so far...I'm sure I'll have endless water, and probably the occasional cup of hot herbal green tea. I also drink 100% aloe vera juice daily, and I think I might still do that... it's only a few ounces, and it is a big-time internal healer...it helps with everything and has 0 calories. very pure. I'm not sure about taking vitamins.. do you guys think that would be okay?
good luck on day 1 ladies.. It's already 4:00 so half of the day has gone by...
Think of how our lives will change 20-30 days from now! :) hehe

This is a reply to # 691,431FOr the first 2 posters....I hate the break this to you but you 2 are not significantly overweight to be doing a long term fast for weightloss? 5'2 @ 125 is healthy range and so is 5'7 at 135. The fact that you guys are saying you are depressed well it sounds like you have an eating disorder or the beginning stages of one? You should not be using this to make you not depressed.- Re: Introduction + Final List for Sa... seangel

This is a reply to # 691,440I'm doing it for a long list of reasons- weight loss is one of them, but the primary one is health. I'm not extremely overweight but my health is not great, and I would like to resume healthier eating habits/lifestyle habits afterwards. I've talked to several experienced fasters as well as a doctor and they said that it would be safe, and that I'm a good candidate for fasting, especially with my stomach disorder. I appreciate your "concern" but we know what we're doing and do not need any discouragement. Thanks, and good luck with your own fast.

This is a reply to # 691,440Yes, I am overweight for my body size. The docs have told me to lose some weight. I have put on over 20 lbs in a matter of months. I appreciate your concern, but I know where I feel healthy and am healthy. I also have some conditions such as PCOS, Pleurisy, Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue, Insomnia that only improve with weight loss and maintaining a healthy weight. Since gaining, all these conditions have been exacerbated. I look forward to getting down to where I started before the meds and my unhealthy choices combined began my pattern of packing on the pounds.

This is a reply to # 691,440I just read some of your previous posts, and I found that you suffer from an ED. I hope you can dig your way out of this. I wish you all the best. God bless.
