Good luck! I'm in a similar situatiion as you - lately, college stress has led to binging and I am just not happy with my body..so after being inspired by all the recent successes posted on here, I am going to begin a fast of my own tomorrow!
I've tried to get myself to fast in the past, but I honestly just wasn't ready...I'd make it through a day and a half or so and then lose control and binge. I've spent the last 2 weeks working on (better, still not great!) portion control and cutting out processed and junk food, so I feel that I am ready this time :)
SkinnyStick - I was just wondering if you are fasting only on water or allowing other 0 calorie drinks (ie. tea) too? Thanks and congrats on your progress so far!
