Just a quick update. I'm doing great on the MC, although yesterday was an unplanned Water Fasting day. Just had the tea at night. My weight is now at 225.5 (from 242.5 and a high of about 252). I expect it to take 6-8 more weeks of liquids to get down to my current goal of 190-192.
I will be using the treadmill again today. I'll also drink my 6 lemonades. Looking forward to the switch to juice fasting, even though it's more work. I am getting bored. I'm switching it up now between lemons and limes. The goal at this point is to add other juices after 2 weeks.
I have mapped out a theoretical progress sheet, based on past experience. When I feel like giving in, I look at it and see where I'll be next week, in a few weeks, etc. This keeps me motivated.

This is a reply to # 700,683Rhonda that's awesome!! I'm only on day three and it's so hard. And i've only lost 1 pound which is the dissapointing part. I thought i'd at least lose 1 lb. a day. So we'll see what happens tomorrow a.m. when I weigh in. You must feel so good Good for you.

MoreThis is a reply to # 700,683Wow you have already made it to a week! Good Job!!! I hope that I can make it that far. I am planning on doing a juice fast the day after easter. I am 5'7 and almost at 240lbs. I really hope I never have to see that number on the scale. I am hoping to lose it all eventually through fasting, but I am not doing it all at once. maybe a 20 day fast and then a week of healthy eating, then another 20 days of fasting. I am hoping it is not as hard as it looks, I just need will power to push myself through it. Maybe seening the numbers on the scale go down will help me. What kind of Herbal tea do you drink? I am looking for some good ones for my first fast! Good luck and Keep going strong! You Can Do IT!

This is a reply to # 700,685Thanks for the encouraging comments everyone! Getting through the first 3-5 days is the key to a successful fast. Just focus on getting past that, and you'll do it! I drink the Smooth Move tea to keep my eliminations happening, and organic mint teas occasionally.
I am hoping to lose the first 50 pounds through fasting, and then lose the other 30-40 with a high raw, small portion diet. I have lost up to 38 pounds before, but because it's so hard to get restarted, I am just going to go for the long fast this time, and break through the 200 pound barrier. In fact, I'm going far enough below 200 that I won't EVER see it again!
You can do it. Just keep your perspective, and remember that 20 days without eating is really not that long. Think about how many days you have eaten without giving your body a break. It deserves the rest, and it will repay you by cleaning house!
