Hi,
I discovered this forum two days ago by accident. A friend of mine told me some things about juice fasting and he wanted us to be fasting partners. I was a little reticent because he got the recipe from someone I can't trust. So I was thinking that a Water Fast would be better since you know that it can't cause you any harm; it only makes you feel better.
I used to do short (2 days) water fastings when I was doing yoga. But I stopped doing yoga a couple of months ago because school keeps me busy. And since I stopped I started feeling worse; sometimes I feel sluggish and it's aweful.
I am 18 and I would like to do a 14 day water fasting, starting Monday. What do you think?
Thank you in advance for your answers,
liv.

This is a reply to # 1,104,515Dr. Shelton fasted a 2 year old for 47 days (or was it 57). Anyways, you get the point.
there are no age restrictions on fasting. only some rare precautions for infants and the very aged.- Re: how old do you have to be to do ... liv7130

This is a reply to # 1,104,515Awesome!
since your in school, i would suggest starting on like a friday so you would have the first few "coming-down" days to just chill. i'm homeschooled and couldn't imagine the first days of fasting while in school... just too hectic and blahblahblah. not that i'm saying it can't be done- if you think you can, by all means.
college would be different i'm sure. idk if your in college or highschool :/?? haha, i'm bad with that stuff.... just don't get too overworked, ya know...

MoreThis is a reply to # 1,104,515I also read that an 11 month old was fasted for about 10 days after being overfed formula and suffering from that.
It's great that you're starting out so early! I wish I'd been more motivated at your age, my whole life was ahead of me then and I was in no rush to restrict things too much at that point.
Good luck!

This is a reply to # 1,104,515Thank you for your encouragement :) This week I've been preparing myself for the next 14 days of fasting :) I ate veggies and fruits only, but today I ate 2-3 doughnuts and I got a heartburn which really sucks... I can't wait till Saturday which will be my first day of fasting. :) Tomorrow I will drink some laxative tea so I can be fully prepared for Saturday :)
My friend who was doing the juice fast gave up... He did 3 days... Today he came to school looking all pale and weak... Ah I hope that won't happen to me, but even if it does I don't think I'm going to stop. I really want to do this. Today I even told my mom about the fast and she was very supportive!! She got a little scared at the beginning but now she is supporting me :) My family and I, we are Orthodox Christians and during the Great Lent (the Easter Lent), especially on Fridays we would not eat or drink anything, so I kinda know what fasting means.
Well I guess I'll write back on Saturday night :) (I live in Oregon by the way :P)
Thanks again for your support :)

This is a reply to # 1,105,614In my very first fasting attempts I ended up looking a bit pale. It wasn't from the fasts themselves but from the poor eating that often followed them. So I was ending up a bit anemic no doubt from endless abortive attempts. I've never had a pale face on any fast since or post fast where I've fasted for longer than a couple of days and broken the fast correctly.
Don't be too hard on yourself before Saturday, if there's a major craving there for something junky don't be afraid to give in to it. It may stop that particular craving making you break the fast in a few days!
Good luck. :)

This is a reply to # 1,105,651Thanks for the advice Andrew :) Actually I never crave a particular kind of food; I would crave a taste... and today I wanted something sweet :P guess that's why I ate the doughnuts.
Oh I wanted to ask you guys if chewing gum is OK? (I would think it's not that good, but at school it would be great to make the bad mouth smell dissapear... If it's not OK I think I'll just take my toothbrush and toothpaste with me, to school :) )

This is a reply to # 1,105,689Yeah it's better just to brush. Having any taste in the mouth can effect the fast because the brain can respond to the taste by redirecting energy to the digestive system. I think BlueGreenShimmer on here uses bicarb to brush with which is probably okay because it certainly doesn't taste like any food I know of! :)
