I just read over all your old blogs - hope that doesn't freak you out- it's ok cause I'm with you on this, if that doesn't sound too weird!

I'm a 23 year old girl, and started a blog on this site too to keep myself on track. It's called "Brightstar, Allowing Dreams to Come True" (the title has personal significance for me!). I'm not water-fasting like you, but my naturopathic doctor put me on a program to lose weight. He's a really great guy, and his program is simple and works for me.

He says that feeding your body small meals of good protein, eg. fish eaten plainly, is the fastest way to lose, because the body doesn't try to hold onto it's reserves like in fasting.

But each to their own. I know water fasting wonderful. I've only ever done a couple of days here and there of it, but i know how difficult it can be. I find it difficult enough to eat a restricted diet!

What i really want to say: have you ever tried the liver flushes detailed on this site? i use them all the time, and they are really brilliant. They help shift the weight like nothing else.

Girl, if you like, though I know this may sound weak, there are other ways you can get your body in order tpp. You know, if fasting is a challenge too big. This is not to discourage you. More power to you if you can water-fast! Good on you!

But just to say that the cleanses here are great. As well as the liver flushes, i did the parasite cleanse, kidney cleanse (both years ago), and do the coffee enemas at the moment, which, for me, are a gift from God.

I am 144 lb now, have been overweight since i was 16, and am committed to getting to 110 lb. That, also, is my doctor's recommendation. He says 10-14% fat is best for a woman, to help the body perform to it's maximum. He says that you don't know you've a tooth until you have a toothache; you don't know you have a head until you have a headache - and so it should also be with your whole body in general - if it's working as it should, you shouldn't know you have one!

This sings to me.

Best of luck sister. Only reply if you want. I'll pray for you. God Bless You.
