Re: How many days!
Melanie,
In my experience. I started the fast with the same ideas that you have and the fast turned out to be so much more...Its not about the de-tox its not about the wieght loss those are just bonuses. It turned into for me, about the body , mind and soul becoming one.
On day ten which was my first goal I knew that I was not ready to give up the fast, my mind what not at all where it should have been.(in was in mc donalds parking lot of all places , and to boot I never eat fast food anyways).
So I took a day of reflection the following day, doing a lot of reading and thinking and I finally was able to get my mind where it needs to be. I'm on day 13 and I feel my fasting will be ending soon, however I am taking it one day at a time. If I go till 21 I would not be surprised.
I also plan on fasting every other day for a month or so, as a reminder and just to set in stone that I plan on being a healthy,grounded,spirital person from here on out.
So the answer to your question can only be answered by you.
