Hey Everybody, I got sorta a lot to write so please bear with me...
Last few days I've been researching and reading about Water Fasting to see if it's safe and will help me lose lots of weight. After finding so many real testimonies and stories of people going on long fast (30 days plus) on this site I decided I am going to stand up for the first time in my life and give it my best to lose weight and change my life.
I've got no one to blame but myself for this mess I'm in, my entire childhood I was beaten pretty bad by my alcoholic father (so was my mom) and we were really poor and even after he left when I was 12, I felt extremely depressed and turned to the most available, most addictive and powerful drug in the world...junk food. Junk Food never beat me, it is always there for you, tastes delicious and makes you feel so good,but that is not the case for your actual health & well being.
Sorry for rambling on, here's the important part...
I'm doing a 60 DAY WATER FAST, currently on day 3 (Started on 9/22/15)
My starting weight is 320 pounds and my height is 5'11. I'm going strong, I want to change my life, no more getting treated terribly and being a weakling hiding in my bedroom for months on end because I'm scared to go outside... I want to live, that's my motivation. Every 7 days I'm going to post a mini journal entry of what I've done, how I feel, etc. I also have a few questions I hope ya'll can answer.
Just a speck of doubt in my mind, but is it safe to do a 60 day fast, (320 pounds 5'11) I was planning on going to 75 if I still had the energy to do so by day 60.
Have any of you gone on a 60 Day or longer water fast? If so please tell me about your weight loss and how the experience was! (Also you should be very proud of such incredible progress).
How much will I lose (guesstimate) ?
That's pretty much it. Once again everyone thanks for reading sorry for any mistakes or errors I'm not that bright, just want to lose weight and live life (lol).
I've had a traumatic short life, and missed out on a childhood and so many experiences that I saw everyone else get to have, but you know what? I'm tired of living horrible, scared to leave my house, no friends, being a burden on my mom. It's time I do something about it, It is never too late to change your life, I want to feel happiness,so I'm going to give it my all to make sure I acquire it.

9 Day Fasting Program
Complete with herbs and clay to eliminate hunger and cleansing reactions.
I have mentioned this to another poster already. 60 days fasting with water only is unrealistic goal and a dangerous one especially people who are obese.
I congratulate you on great self reflection. That is a good beginning. People tend to think that because they have a lot of fat to lose, they can go for a long time with water only. In many cases obese people go in starvation mode even when they have excess weight after a long fast of 30+ days.
You should definitely fast, but plan for 30 days, feed for 30 days and then 30 day fast. During feeding period only have juices and raw foods. You will continue losing weight gradually that way.
Meanwhile drink as per thirst, rest and keep warm. Walk everyday for 20 minutes to lose more weight. You can expect to lose 1lb per day on average. Initially you may lose more per day.
Keep up the good job. Yes, please share your experience here for support and so we all can learn from your experience.

This is a reply to # 2,278,744I second Archus in saying that starting off with a 60-day Water Fast is not just dangerous, it is also not the best way for an obese person to lose weight.
For one thing, a Water Fast is much more applicable for someone seeking autolysis, rather than weight loss.
I have never been overweight myself, but everything I have seen about successful weight loss has been through one of two avenues :
1) 60-100 day juice fast. Not water.
OR
2) Gradual ramp up of water fasts, as described below :
One good rule of thumb is to never do a fast more than twice as long as your prior fast. Always start small (say, 2 days), refeed with fruits/vegetables and stay on that diet, then do the longer fast, but never more than twice as long as the prior.
Do 2 days. Then 4 days. Then 8 days. Then 16 days. If you really need more, then 32 days, but you may not need to go that far.
