Re: Committed Buddies Wanted!

Hello.  I am still going strong.  I have learned through fasting, you have to keep your spirits high along with a postive attitude.  I can do this.  I know I can do this. 

 Last night, I had to prepare dinner for my family as usual.  I don't want to get into graphic details of the lush dinner, but it looked good... I prepared the meal.  I served my family.  I cleaned the kitchen.  While drinking a nice glass of warm water with a straw.

I am truly amaze what my body can endure.  Granted I did have a bit of a weak spell and dizziness while preparing for the fast- and that is inclulding eating.  But now that I am only drinking water 100% of my fast- I feel incredible.

Water fast started: Saturday July 21, 2007 @ 9:30pm

water fast end date: ?

Mini goal #1: 7 days

mini goal #2:  21 days

Ultimate goal:  August 24th- The birthdate of my first child.- end water fast

1 week of juice fasting, liquids, etc.

1 week of raw vegetables and fruits

September 7th-  My 26th birthday 

What a wonderful way to celebrate the joy of life!

 I do not know what to expect with weight loss during fasting.  I encourage weight loss.  But I have made mini goals in obtaining my goal weight of 135lbs by New Year's.

Projected Weight Loss Goals

If I can lose an average of 2lbs per week/ 10 lbs per month.  I can obtain my goal in the month of January.  I won't exactly be my goal weight but I won't be over 200lbs either.  It's a win-win situation!

Who's to tell how much I will lose while fasting?

I will keep every one updated with my progress.
