Starting my ten day Water Fast right now, it's 1.38 am in my country. I had thought of doing a tea fast but then reading all the messages on the forum I realized how important it is to do just a water fast. Hope you will all be very supportive. I tried to make a short term goal but if the fast goes well I'll do it for longer, but I guess that ten days is already a good goal for me.- Re: 10 day water fast Fonty

Hi Nadia
I will be over the moon for you. I'm so pleased that you got there in the end. Was it really easy? You had alot of discomfort, didn't you.
Symptoms however are good signs that the body is healing. As i have been reading, you should welcome these symptoms, and the worse they are, the worse the disease you would have probably got, if you had not done the cleansing.
I am seriously thinking now of doing a juice fast, and may go on to water if i manage that okay. I'm going all out now to kick the caffiene habit, so i have more chance of doing this. I know i will do this in the end, but baby steps for now.
My lower back is really hurting at the moment, so feel a bit sorry for myself lol
Anyway Congratulations again, are you carrying on or breaking after tomorrow, i think you were planning 14 days originally.
I'm buying myself a juicer tomorrow for ten pounds, at lloyds, the chemist, a little compact one, as haven't got much counter space. It may not last long for that money, but it will do for a start.
Have you got a lloyds The Chemist in Scotland. They do some great stuff. Digital scales and blood pressure monitors etc for a really great price.
Anyway Best of luck

Thanks, i've just seen one in Tesco, nearly £30, reduced from nearly fifty. It has a 2 litre pulp capacity and 800 watt motor, but seems quite large.
They also had a value one for just over ten pounds, but only 11/2L capacity 600ml juice and 400W motor. I don't know what the lloyds one is, but will look tomorrow, but it was very compact.
I will check the ebay ones out. One of my main priorities is very easy to clean, and not to large, although i know it shouldn't be lol.
I will start off with the juicing but hope to change to water after a few days if all goes well. And i can use it for refeeding. Actually that is a point i need clearing up, do the refeeding juices need to be pulp free or doesn't it matter at that stage?
I'm actually quite keen to give the water another go, if i feel that bad again, then i'll see if i can get through it and carry on. The only problem is committments, i'm still nervous about getting on buses and attending appointments in case i feel faint etc. Reading Nadia's post has inspired me to try again. I think also i have read info saying Water Fasting you should stay in bed because you feel so weak, but that is not necessarily true is it, as a lot of you on this forum work, exercise etc.
Since that couple of days, my appetite has reduced quite alot anyway. Another thing that i hated was the acid feeling, i'm frightened i might get an ulcer or something. I didn't actually feel that hungry, just strange on waking, and i believe that could have been low blood sugar, as eating made me feel so much better. Now you explained about that in another post, but is that normal to wake feeling awful, and would that have passed, do you think?
Thanks- Re: Bling, I will be over the moon t... Fonty

This is a reply to # 1,116,439The acidity on a fast is not concentrated or strong enough to damage you, it is just a consequence of certain toxins leaving the system. It is necessary and usually passes in a day or two at most. We have read of a few cases on here, I've had it too, but I don't think it is really that common.
You can exercise and sometimes that can even help when you are tired, funny though that seems. If you heat and cool your body, stimulate the sweat glands etc, this can assist in excretion of toxins and relieve other systems of the hard work they are doing thus releasing more energy for day to day stuff. That's the theory anyway, but some people and some times, we just do need to rest during a fast. If your commitments are very unbending then be prepared for that eventuality. There is a good chance you will have the energy, and with a bit of care the dizziness/low blood pressure won't interfere with your life too much at all. It is important to plan for every eventuality though.
It is only on a juice fast you need to be pulp free. Pulp is important when refeeding it helps stimulate the bowels and makes it a more complete food which is what your body really wants and needs after fasting.
Take care and good luck. :)

This is a reply to # 1,115,841Hi Bling and everyone, :)
So I am back from the shop and keeping my promise:)
First of all, I have made my mind up and I will go just for TEN days. Why? - Due to my time frames. My day 10 will be over tomorrow about midnight but I have decided not to break it exactly that time. I will do it as soon as I wake up on Friday morning. I am off that day so I will do it in a right way. I was recommended to drink half of a cup of an orange juice every hour throughout a day. Also I can drink that day (in the same amounts) fresh grapefruit, tomato, Watermelon juices. So I will do it properly this time coz I don't want to mess up all my efforts. Also I was recommended to add gradually the amount of food I eat starting with very small portions. I need to do all this refeading period gradually up till 10 days.
Also partly I want to end my fast earlier coz on 10th of March the main Fast (Lent) according to my believe will start. I am Orthodox and it is very important (main) fast. Ideally we are not allowed to eat any animal products for about one and a half months. So I want to enjoy my salmon and probiotic organic yogurts (without sugar) to the full. Plus I do need time (ideally one week) before I move there (to start my new job).
I have already bought a lot of mainly organic fruits and vegetables. Can't wait to eat them all (gra-du-all-y):)... Looking forward to it, to be honest.
Yes, I could say my fast was not difficult at all. May be even easy. More or less from the very first day I didn't have hunger (it was manageable). Fast was trouble free (with the exception of feeling very cold ones and for the last 3-4 days I have that unpleasant feeling in the area of ribs). My energy level was in 90% was ok. So what else could I wish for?? Time pass very quickly and I just count days:)... I do think I could go for longer. YEP.. I have no doubts about it. But I have to stop... I read somewhere that a fast can't be considered as such unless it is at least 10 days. So tomorrow I will have those 10 days plus (a kind of bonus for my body:)) several hh up till next morning. For me it is quite an achievement. I AM VERY PROUD OF MYSELF:)).. I know, unfortunately, I can't fix my stomach properly now but still some repairs have already taken place there so it is BETTER than nothing:).. My tonque is getting a bit pink. Well, not really but the very tip of it is pink (heart) and getting pinkie from sides. An area responsible for stomach could be cleared on a last stage:(.. but it is ok. I will 'fix' it in the process of eating:)
I didnt loose much weight and I am happy about it!:) I can easily loose 2 lbs and still look not that lean. I guess my body decided so:).. I am quite happy with my skin. It is MUCH better than it has been before. But when I was on right combining for two and a half months some years ago, it was just great! No problem I will improve it. I know THE WAY!:)).. Also today I have noticed my nails are getting whiter but before they had yellowish colour.
What else to add? Today was normal day. Busy at work. Usual amount of energy (like when I am not fasting), didn't feel cold. Pain (unpleasant feeling) is still present in an area of stomach. About midday it was under both ribs for same time then stopped and about 4 p.m (as usual) was back again up till now (left side under a rib and goes a bit down). HOPE main 'fixing' of that area will be completed by the morning of 22nd :/....:)
I hope by this time my candida issue is sorted out. SHOULD be.
Bling, why juice fast? With a Water Fast at least u shouldn't clean a juicer;):D.. I am telling u, eat healthy for just one day (the way I have described before) and u will be fine with a water fast!
Ok, whatever decision u make - good luck!:) If u decide that juice fast is an option then don't forget to remove all pulp from ur juices (with tea strainer with tiny holes, for example).
Ok?:)
