LouisianaPG,

Congratulations on making it thus far, 31 days, it is awesome!

Be very careful from here on, listen to your body, at any point true hunger returns, you will need to break your fast right away. Since your fast is a long fast, you should break it with organic orange or red grapefruit juice, half a cup can be mixed with water. Start low build slow. No commercial products, including supermarket juices. Eat all organic foods the way they come from nature. Chewing your foods, including juices is also very helpful.

Here is what Dr. Shelton had to say.........

The care that must be exercised in breaking a fast is in proportion to the length of the fast and to the general condition of the fasting individual. The approved plan is to break the fast on liquid food, using for this purpose fruit juice, or tomato juice, or Watermelon juice, or vegetable broths. Fruit juice--usually orange juice--is used most often.

Orange juice, grapefruit juice, or fresh tomato juice are excellent with which to break a fast. Watermelon juice or the juice of the fresh pineapple or of fresh grapes may also be used. A half a glass may be given at the start. After an hour, another half glass may be given. Juice may be given every hour the first day. The second day a whole glass of juice every two hours may be employed. On the third and fourth days give the whole orange or grapefruit and on the fifth day other foods may be added. Large meals should not be attempted in less than a week. These instructions are for the long fast. A short fast requires less care in breaking and is usually followed for several days by an eliminating diet.

There is a tendency on the part of the faster to overeat, not alone because he is hungry, but also because he is desirous of regaining his weight. His friends also urge him to eat. Sinclair truly says: "A person at the end of a (long) fast is an agitating sight to his neighbors, and their one impulse is to get a 'square meal' into him as quickly as possible."


Good luck.

How are you doing? I would like to hear about your fast. Is this your last day? I am on day 10.

Yes, lots of veggies and fruits. But I’d rather advise you to take them in liquid form than cooked or raw as it might be hard to digest. Try one of the Superfood berry or green drinks. They include a lot of vegetables in one mix.

You can, it’s all about your stomachs digestion. Since you’ve been taking water regularly, juices wouldn’t be hard on you. Just make sure they’re not heavy drinks and are fully liquid.
