Re: First 20-Day Fast

Thank you. I will try to limit stress as much as possible. As for the weight loss, I have been a vegetarian for 5 years and am plant-based, meaning I stay away from processed food. I have a very clean diet, but suffer from hypothyroidism/Hashimoto's, and my doctor had me try new medication over the summer. I have maintained at a comfortable 130-140lbs for years, but with the new medication and lower dose, my weight increased dramatically in 6 months. I am now back on the medication I was taking before the change, and am just wanting to get rid of all this extra weight! I have also been taking chasteberry and ashwaghanda extracts to normalize my hormones... should I stop taking these over the fast? Tweet
