Re: anyone who has fasted please help!

anorexics are on a "starvation diet". they aren't fasting... they've gone way past their body's reserves and their bodies are now consuming healthy tissues.

fasting for a fact "resets" your tastes. i've read many posts by Chris and Fonty who attest to the fact that fasting, along with proper re-feeding causes your body to only crave healthy foods in healthy amounts. and when a person who has done this tries to eat former "comfort foods", they are actually disgusted by the sugary or synthetic taste. i also read about this fact in detail in the book "Fasting and Eating for Health" by Joel Fuhrman, M.D."

it's not "magic"... it's biological and psychological.

i never said that you said fasting was an eating disorder. i said that most mainstream doctors would say that fasting is an eating disorder.
