Re: I am 297 pounds and made a bet that I could be 230 or 240 pounds in three weeks! Can water fasting save me?

I have fasted for lengthy periods,
albeit modified juice fasting. I did
not have the amount of extra weight
you had and did not have any serious
food addictions either, still, I did
not lose the amount of weight you
want to lose in a longer period of
time.

Seems the more realistic motivation
might be to do it for your health and
not have the pressure of a "bet" to
motivate you. It is difficult enough
to deal with the emotional and physical
challenges of fasting without worrying
about whether you can beat your mom's
scale reading. Of course, if it is that
important as a motivation, go ahead
and bet your mom. She would probably
love to have the foot massages bet or
no bet.

I wish you well with your goal to regain
your health and balance.

best wishes,
Zoe
