Starting 25 day water fast tomorrow.
Hi everyone
After 1 week of eating mostly raw food in small quantities i am finally starting my much needed healing waterfast today.
I tried to start it 2 days ago but broke it again and again...At least i ate little and only RAW foods.
Tomorrow I hit my deadline though, so... here it goes.
25 days, a day for each year of my life. Female, healthy, maybe 10
pounds overweight.
Generally I'm a healthy eater and physically active (just enough) but I've come to feel that 10 years of ever changing lifestyles and diets have left my stomach, liver and kidneys in bad conditions.
I've juice fasted before for periods of 1-2 weeks and i could feel the improvement in energy levels, a descrease in need for sleep and a general clarity and.. lightness. The weight loss was also a huge positive factor.
However, now the main factor is getting healed and thus the drastic zero fuel Water Fast.
I begin the fast knowing it will be somewhat of a challenge - I travel a lot and I'm not going to stop doing it during the fast. I'll be visiting Berlin, then moving into a new place in Switzerland and finally taking a week to see Rome (sightseeing on a water fast?)... but i am a very calm and easygoing person. I don't pick up the pace unless being chased :)
Alright now, we'll see how it goes.
Best of luck to all of you fasters!
