Hello Rainy Day- thanks for the information about the gum chewing... I have always chewed gum while juice fasting but I guess that was because I did not shut down my digestive system. Makes sense that I should not chew gum during water fast.. Thanks for the information i will definately put take it. Live and Learn   [End]

I find that when I break my fast I feel horrible.. makes me want to start fasting all over again. Today was a great day again and I am still virtually symptom free.. I did have some hunger pains but I was also chewing gum-which apparanently a no no on water fasts... I always chewed gum on juice fasts but I guess that was OK because your digestive system doesn’t shut down. You learn something new every day- so tommorrow no gum! How did you do today... how many days to go??? Stay stong take it one day at a time   [End]

Good luck. Are you fasting primarly to loose weight or for detox... Try to take it one hour at a time... when you get halfway through the day remind yourself that this was the hardest day and that you are halfway there so you don’t want to ruin it now... try to stay focused.. chew some gum if you need to.. again good luck.. talk t oyou tommorrow   [End]

Thanks I will definetly keep you posted. When you break your fast do you feel better- I mean do the syptoms that make your fast difficult go away- I have found that when I break my fast is when I start feeling like crap. I think because I feel so good on the fast- my body sorta rebels when I start eating again Keep me posted I will keep you in my thoughts.. Good luck   [End]

Hello everyone. I started a water fast on Wednesday and so far so good. I have not yet had any negative symptoms at all. I have been juice fasting on and off for the past few months some times as long as 15 days at a time. I am curious as to why I am not experiencing the normal side effects of water fasting? Not that I am complaining but very curious if it has something to do with past fasting experience. I hope to continue this fast for 25 - 30 days depending on weight loss results. I currently weight 157 pounds at 5’3”and I don’t want to go below 130 so the lenght depends on weight. ...

Hello. I too am starting a fast. I will start tommorrow and hope to be able to do a 30 day fast. My current weight is 158 pounds and my goal weight is 130 pounds. I am also doing this fast to break my bad eating habits as I constantly crave carbs and food that is not good for me. I would love to be your fasting buddy- hoping to be there to cheer you on while we keep each other on track. I know tommorrow will be hard but my mind is in the game so I will get through! Good Luck.. I can’t wait to reach our goals!!   [End]

Hello everyone. Today was the first day of my 30 day water fast. It was a little difficult but I am happy to say I made it. I can’t say that I was hungry but I did fing myself wishing I could eat something proving that my eating habits are purely ba habits not true hunger. I am hoping for a 30 pound weight loss which will put me at my goal of 137 pounds. If anyone is interested in a fasting partner please email me. I would love to have a buddy to go through this with! Good luck other fasters!!!   [End]

Hello and good luck on your fast. I have never done master cleanse but I have read alot about it. It does sound good and maybe I will give it a shot. I started a juice fast Monday April 14th today is day 16. I have lost 13.5 pounds and have never felt better. I used to suffer from daily headaches and had a stomache ache at least 4 days a week. Since starting this fast I have not had 1 headache and no stomache aches. This in itself is motivation enough to continue. I am definetly going to do the thirty day fast and hope to continue on to 60 day fast as long as I don’t start looking ...

Good Luck on your water fast. I have been on a juice fast for the past 10 days and have lost 10.5 pounds. The juice fast is so much easier than the water fast as you don’t get the side effects associated with just taking in water. The juice gives me energy and I feel better than I have felt in a long time. You may want to try juice fast instead. I drink 100 percent juice from the store Again good luck   [End]
