It has been a little over a year since my last Water Fast which ended up being 8 days. I'm not sure how long I will take this one. I'm 6'1", about 215, and although I could stand to lose a 15-20 lbs, my objectives are cleansing and healing. I have had pain in my shoulder for 2.5 years and twisted my ankle about 1 year ago and it still hasn't healed enough for me to jog. MRI's show know tears, so perhaps there is some scar tissue or stuck energy that can be resolved this way.

So far so good, no significant struggles other than missing eating. The white film on the toungue is still present, my lower back aches on occassioon, and my hands/feet are often cold, but otherwise I'm able to go about my daily activities without any issue.

I did not properly ease into this fast, with fruit and juice during the prior days, nor did I did do any colon cleansing prior. Next time I do this, that will happen.

Anyway, back to the questions:

1. I don't know how long to take this fast. Is there any estimate on how long it takes for the body healing to take place?

2. What is the impact on our metabolism by doing this? And what is the best way to increase it after the refeeding? I'd have to assume the body's metabolism slows significantly, and that concerns me with regards to post fast. Any guidance on increasing metabolism is appreciated.

3. My plan for refeed is OJ (half glass every two hours or so) for the first day or two , depending on how long I take it. Then oranges, grapefruit, bananas, kiwis for another day, followed by nuts and salad. How soon can I introduce carbs and proteins? Any comments on this plan is also appreciated.

Thanks in advance for your reponses, may all of you fasters have the strength to achieve your goals, and special thanks for the support team that is here for all of us to lean on.
