Re: can i lose 30 pounds in 30 days???
Hi
If you have never fasted before, 30 days is a long time, most people would build up to that, unless their health was seriously in jepoardy. If you do 30 days fasting, you would have to do 30 days of refeeding after.
Although weight loss is going to make you more healthy, fasting is not a quick fix, if you don't change the way you eat when not fasting, especially in the refeeding stage, the weight will go back on and then some. The body has got rid of the rubbish, fat, damaged cells and deposits etc and should be rebuild with quality food, preferable raw. Think of it more of a long term health goal. Fasting and healing, then rebuilding until you reach your goal of perfect weight, health and vitality.
Your sister's wedding is only one day, where you have the rest of your life to look good. I understand that photos and videos will be taken, and you want to look your best but if it ain't happening, just do what you can in the time, 15 days as Chris said will probably give you glowing skin etc. And there is always makeup and a good outfit can hide a multitude of sins lol. If you fast for 15 and eat a healthly raw diet for 15, you might just make it, but you probably have to choose your outfit, and so you will need to include time for that.
Anyway, losing a stone (14lb) would probably make all the difference to how you feel, and it could be a lot more.
Good Luck
