Re: honest possibilities (mouseclick or anyone with experience)

I have experience with only one long fast. I am 5'5 and 160 lbs now, 38 yrs old. I was 125lbs just 8 yrs ago and I have never been overweight before. In apr-may '08 I water fasted for 21 day, lost 25 lbs. Most of it I lost in the first two weeks. Started 170 lbs (my heighest so far). As you see, I gained most of the weight (15lbs) back in just a few months due to overeating, emotional eating.
If you start Water Fast today, you may loose about 20 lbs by 12/22.
I had to take the last two weeks of the fast off from work though. It depends what kind of work you do and how supportive people around you are.
I want to fast before the Holidays too and I can't afford taking time off from work or family responsibilities.
We can be fast buddies for at least first two-three days which are the hardest and then just post when you wish. For me it's the only way to get started.
Let me know what you think. Good luck with your decision.
