This is a reply to # 1,463,246Hey there-to me that does not sound like water fasting, rather a kind of low-calorie liquid diet. Regardless, best of luck!

MoreThis is a reply to # 1,463,249hey! yea probably right but mostly water, i just play alot of sports so i think i need the protien (it's only .47 of "powder" worth 30 calories) and then the fiber mix is the same but I can't stand to take pills or those nasty teas so more of liquid version (i dont want to hold on to bad stuff) the lemonaide mix is more of supplement, same as say if you were taking vitamns on the water fast. so not 100% by the book water fast, but this will work for me!
i know i will need encouragement as i go thru this!! so thanks for the feedback! - Re: 3 week fasting starting 230pm 7/... chirontherainbowbridge

This is a reply to # 1,463,249i will go further and say, it sounds like a hoax. a skit. a comedy
of errors. If any of it is in fact serious, (and more than a figment of imagination) then it's seriously probably in the wrong forum. Water Fasting has nothing to do with calories, or fiber... or fixated plans to punish the body with fitness training.
edit:
sorry to be the voice of 'no encouragement'. Your plan sounds ill-advised. Playing a lot of sports doesn't really fit the picture of a water fast.
but, oh well. good luck

thanks for you comment and thoughts chirontherainbowbridge! feel free to check back throught out the next few weeks to see how my hoax is going :)
i feel everyone should do a fast to meet his/her needs and not worrying about confirming to someone else "ideal" fast. this is what i think will work for me based on my research/planning and i suppose only the next 3 weeks will tell...

This is a reply to # 1,463,261Hey there-chiron's point is just that if you are trying to seriously water fast, you're not doing it. This is more of a liquid fast. Water Fasting involves your body shutting down your digestive system and consuming toxins and other dead/ill cells as a fuel source, first, before it consumes healthy tissue.
Yours is more of a low calorie diet...we are just saying that this is more of a liquid diet than a fast, eh? =) A liquid fast is more what it is...but good luck! I hope you achieve your goals!

This is a reply to # 1,463,269i agree it's not a traditional Water Fast its tmichelsea version of a Water Fast and i still think it's better than nothing .......it's 50 calories over the course a day i dont really think that is much of anything :)
so yep it's not 100% Water Fast but my main reson for doing this is weight loss (evil....i know) but that's the truth so i dont much care if i had 50 calories to ensure that i stick to this and am able to keep up with my current active life. so call it a water fast, liquid fast whatever makes you happy :) and i really believe some people fast to get rid of dieases, some for religion, some for peace, some for weight loss, some for attention (aka david blane) etc

thanks for the patient translation :-)
I was really hoping Chris might post a reply here, with something of the basics as to what a Water Fast IS, but perhaps he, like myself would find it hard to even credit

This is a reply to # 1,463,305okay i dont know why all the hate, if it makes everyone feel better i won't post on here about the 50 calorie vitamn supplements that I am planning on taking in liquid form. ill just post about the water..
seems like we are all fans of fasting to cure what ever problem it is that ailes? i don't really understanding the need for extreme rudeness, judgement and being mean? if you dont like my post just don't read it okay? i'm sure plenty others can use your attention and support thanks.- Re: 3 week fasting starting 230pm 7/... tmichelsea

This is a reply to # 1,463,315***The reason I posted here and not the weight loss forum, is because I am doing a Water Fast with a vitamn supplement. You can disagree on the "supplement" issue that is fine, I'm always open to others pov. Also, I feel that there isn't alot of ppl in the weight loss forum that are serious about fasting and it doesn't seem as "active" as this forum.
I am just looking for support or advice, so please feel free to share,give your opinion with a little respect and politness, offer advice, just please there is no need to sound self righetous and be a jerk.
I'm a very nice person and not looking to add any negative energy to my life. If you can't be polite then please don't reply.- Re: 3 week fasting starting 230pm 7/... tmichelsea

in addition i have properly prepared myself for this fast by eating fruits/vegetables for the last two days as well as taking a smooth move laxative tea today to "clear" my stomach. (I just didn't realize i need to qualify every bit of information on this forum not to get assulted)
fballer - i'm not straving myself, i'm Water Fasting the same as everyone else on here. i'm just adding a small amount of "vitamns" in powder/liquid form bc i can not take vitamn in a solid form (which have pretty much the same nutritional content as the powder form) this was recommend to me by a trusted friend who has water fasted many times and knows/understand my medical background
(i understand that most ppl who Water Fast think that vitamns are not a good idea, i'm just of a different opinion on that one, so we can agree to disagre)i'm not a purist but that doesn't mean i am "starving" myself.

We have debates forums where debaters are welcomed!

By taking the vitamins your body won't be able to go into a fasting mode.
This is where a number of functions of the body slow down or shut down as with the digestive system which needs to shut down.
If it doesn't shut down, as by taking things in addition to the water, the body won't make the transition over to living off its stores of nutrients and will only be living off of what is in the diet, this being the 50 or so calories you mentioned.
50 or so calories per day constitute a starvation diet where the body will burn vital tissue including muscle and organs for its sustenance.
I highly recommend the Water Fast and hope that I have been polite with my response.

This is a reply to # 1,463,319tmichelsea,
I agree with the response in this thread to your original post, and especially with the member Donn's/Chirons reply.
You will in fact be on a "liquid-diet" which unless it is comprehensive nutritionally, can easily lead to malnutrition in one form of deficiency or another.
Water-fasting on the other hand does not lead to nutritional deficiencies unless carried too far into the starvation period.
I don't believe anyone is judging you, but I think your post might have been more relevant in the Juice-fasting forum, after all, this is a "Water-fast-support-forum" and where your post might have been better addressed as O/T or off/topic.
If your sole aim is to lose weight as a "must must must" then water fasting, even with the addition of a vitamin/protein mix, is not an ideal choice. In addition, a metabolism-increasing-lemonade-powder will be counterproductive to the efforts of your body, which will be attempting to lower your rate of metabolism with calorie-restriction.
You will be much better off with adopting a juice-fast (or juice-feast) as I often refer to it as, without the consequences of possible malnourishment. This will also maintain a higher to normal rate of metabolism, which, with the addition of exercise will achieve a greater weightloss than your current plan.
With all due respect to your MD brother, he will know very little about fasting/nutrition and its consequences/benefits unless he has interned under Dr Joel Fuhrman MD who is an expert on this subject.

thanks for the info. very well said! :)
again, i'm not trying to say i am doing a purist form of water fast, (read back, i say over and over again this isn't my intent) i know i am doing a variation of a pure Water Fast and i posted here soley bc this forum is more active and has a deeper resource of knowledege. so if you don't like what i'm doing, then just watch, read, follow what I am doing. please state your thoughts :)
(i have no clue how to move this whole thread to another forum at this point, i feel i would lose alot of content if i started over someplace else) so while i respect everyone's point of view but I am going to do what is best for me :)
Everyone subscribes to a certain science/belief in life, i feel it's not my place nor someone elses to negate what works for them. so i'm going to have a go at what i think will work for me and if it doesn't work, i def. will think over some of your ideas/what has worked for you :) Science is relative in my opinion, back in the day doctors "preached" literally to death that bleeding was the only way to get rid the body of the poisionous blood. so i just think you have to pick what make sense to you at the point of time you live in and go with what has work for you :)
okay will tom. will be my first fasting day post :) im not sure ill get up for the am work out as ive been up late working but ill try :)

This is a reply to # 1,463,481tmichelsea,
With your current plan it is likely that a hunger sensation will be present throughout your fast.
This would be due to the digestive system staying active.
With the standard water fast, sensations of hunger are generally not present after the second or third day due to the digestive system becoming inactive.
I give you this here so you will understand what is taking place if you experience it.- Re: 3 week fasting starting 230pm 7/... tmichelsea

This is a reply to # 1,463,479tmichelsea,
yes, everyone does indeed subscribe to a certain
science/belief in life, and of course you are well within your democratic right/privilege to undergo a process which you think will work for you, but just by posting here, you are asking for advice and the knowledge/experience of others who have been there before you.
I for one have over 30 years experience/study with the fast and nutrition generally, especially with a system of healthcare/recovery based on the physiology of the body: Natural Hygiene.
The advice you have been offered by myself and others here is based on a wealth of experience that has worked for them and countless thousands of others, and which dates back to the knowledge and experience accrued from health-qualified professionals from the mid 1800's to the present day; so I would think it would be a wise choice to adhere to that advice which has been proven to be effective/reliable and safe.
However, after saying that, you are of course free to choose your own path, but I find it rather odd that you have posted for advice/support and then chosen to ignore it.
I am sure that we will offer you the best advice applicable to your situation, and I for one wish you well and a successful outcome in your endeavours.
Chrisb1.

This is a reply to # 1,463,246How about just doing a Water Fast (no vitamins and protein powder) and simply resting, meaning no exercise. You will lose weight and detox. AND we will support you all the way. You can do it. Otherwise you are jeopardizing your health with your original plan and we probably won't support it. Sorry just being honest like everyone else. It's not hate, just honesty.

This is a reply to # 1,463,365thanks for all over your advice - donn/monk88 appreciate your point of view. def not rude, i love hearing what other thinks always room for new ideas etc. others where being flat out rude calling me stupid etc (you can clearly see from above) if they don't delete those comments..
i'm going to go with my org. plan for now. as i have gone over it w/ many other people (including my brother who is a MD) that i know personally and they have "okay" my fasting plan for a 3 week period.
as far as exercise, my goal is to maintain what i currently do, neither increase or decrease. if i feel like doing it i will, if i dont i wont (ill def. listen to my body)
tom. is my first official day and i am MORE than excited.
i plan on doing an pre-work excercise (i skip this one alot :)as i'm not a morning a person), doing cardio for a bit a lunch, then i have a class post work I go to.. in between ill be drinking lots of water :)Advertisement
