The purpose of this forum was originally meant to address the health benefits of safe, rational fasting. Almost from the beginning, the weight loss people came in, sometimes with very dangerous advice. The Webmaster created the fasting for weight loss forum for those who wanted only to lose weight with little or no regard for health or safety. Fasting For Weight loss accepts all fasting modalities, water, juice, Master Cleanse or any combination.

Most of the claims for benefits of water only fasting can be true. The problem is that most people are far too toxic to immediately experience the healing and emotional benefits. Instead water only fasting is one long and very difficult detox. Most people fail at their first attempts at extended Water Fasting because their bodies are simply too toxic to safely withstand the sudden onrush of released toxins. The time they spend fasting is spent feeling weak and ill.

The early supporters of water only fasting usually echoed the advice of Paul Bragg who was an avid faster. He suggested starting out with one day a week fasting, followed by three days a month. It could take months or even years before a fast of ten days or longer could be safely attempted. A clean and healthy lifestyle between fasts is essential to work up to extended fasting and its benefits.

One reason this forum has given way to the fasting to lose weight crowd is because so many people have set unrealistic goals for early fasting attempts and very few complete them. Fasting for health is very serious and needs to be done with preparation and care. Results will vary from person to person
and there are no guarantees about the outcome of any fast, it depends on the individual's physical and emotional state when the fast is undertaken.

By the way-fasting for weight loss rarely results in permanent loss, usually all the weight lost and more will be regained within a few months.
