just some newbie thoughts...

Hey everybody!I just watched some of the videos of the lady who did the 3 consecutive 40day water fasts...Everything seems great, I mean she did it for spiritual, personal reasons, so I can't judge.Literally who am I to judge...However the transition between the fasts was simply tragic...She starts at 199 lb and lost 50 lb on the first fast. She then ate nonstop, "whatever she wanted", as she said,for one week. Then she went in the second fast, after a big meal (her words)and came down to 122 lb. Now comes the freaky part. Again she let herself eat anything she wanted, and in 4 days she shot up to 138 lb!!!!She gained 16 lb in 4 days!Then she did the third fast, came down to 103 lb, and of course, broke this fast with steak and milk!!I am starting to beleive she really had god's help, since she didn't go to the emergency room with gastritis.I shared all this with you because I have been interested in the subject of fasting a lot lately and I have done so much reading, and researching too. People are so afraid they will die of hunger,but the real danger is the refeeding part. If it's not done right, it is what can push you into a dangerous downward spiral and completely erase all the good that's been done to our body and mind through our fast!Maybe all that is wrong, I will admit I hardly know maybe 2% of the whole fasting subject...
