Hi there!
Before I make any comments about fasting for 44 days I need to
ask you few questions. Have been eating a healthy diet for at
least few months? have you done any detoxing and preparations
like juicing and being on raw diet for a week or two? Are you
healthy? Have you had a checkup and have you asked the doctor
if it's OK for you to fast? If the answer to all questionsis NO,
than don;t attempt the maximum time you can go with no food
before irreversible damage is done. If you never fasted for at
least 3 days followed bt 10 days, than you should start slowly.
If this your first fast, stop after 3 days. In a month, try another
for 10 days and listen to your body, then do 10 day fast a couple
more times every 3 months and between fasts stay on whole food diet
rich in produce and then you might try a longer fast. I have fasting
for 3 years now and so far 10 day fast was my longest. Now I am on
day 3 of a 14 day water fast to be followed by 7 days juice fast
and then raw diet for a week and after that back to healthy, whole
food balance diet. Going for 44 days with no preparation can kill
you, especially if you do it alone with no supervision. It is very
dangerous and unnessecary. You can;t reverse lifetime of bad eating
habits (that is how we gain weight) in 6 weeks. You will deprive your
body of nutrients and get it out of balance not talking about your
body consuming all the muscle tissue so needed for healthy weight
loss. Your fast should only be a jumpstart to a healthy lifestyle
and change your eating habits. If you don;t learn how to eat right,
you will go right back to eating the wrong food and all that weight
will come right back. Be pateint and concentrate on your health firts
and you will be surprised how easily you will lose weight.
Good luck.
