Re: Water fasting for poss. rheumatoid arthritis

Touche, DesertLili.

I kind of wish I had heard this yesterday. I was feeling really discouraged and hopeless about it. I did expect the pain and swelling to go away sooner due to some case studies I had read. I guess I just felt like giving up. Plus my friends were threatening to force feed me.

But today I broke the fast. I had a bit of diluted cucumber juice (not even a full cucumber) and some blueberries (maybe 1/4 cup) and two pieces of raw okra. I'm not sure what to do now. Do you recommend that I go back to it? Or is it too late? Should I refeed and then plan another fast at a later date? But I don't know what I'd do about the meds in the meantime.

I'm sorry if it seems like I disregarded your advice. I just really have no support here. Most everyone I know is really worried about me doing this. I'm not sure what to do. Tweet
