Re: I'm ready to fast again.

I agree....the plans are pretty lofty, and while the length is my ultimate goal (well...fasting to completion would be the real ultimate goal), I have thought long and hard about the time-length I have set out above and it is what I feel comfortable with.

I have, in the past, completed several 3 day water fasts, one 6 day one and one 14 day one. The last time I fasted was the 14 day one, and it was about 3 years ago. It has taken me this long to be ready psychologically to undertake this again.

As far as the weight, I am uncomfortable with myself at this weight and have tried various ways of modifying my diet, including Atkins and just plain ol' calorie counting.

Thanks for the input~!

I will post back here once I commence the water fast...about 11 days from now. I will be happy with whatever amount of time I do accomplish on it, as i said I do have work and school to keep up with, but looking at the bigger picture, i think now is the optimal time for me to do this, especially with the holiday season fast approaching.
