Sounds like you have a pretty clear picture of your goals and they are certainly realistic and doable. Many of us started with a shorter goal but we were feeling so good that we pressed on. For me my first was 14 days and I wound up doing 40 ;+D So if the mood and circumstances are right for you and the you got your mojo woikin. Press on, It takes around 2 weeks before the body is fully adapted to fasting and after that is when the real magic starts happening and you start cleansing at the cellular level.anywhere between 14 and 21 days you'll hit the "zone" and you'll get this peaceful mental clarity that for me it was and still is the coolest thing I have ever done.
You might print out the MC weightloss things for your friends before they mess up and put more weight back on than they lost.
