Subject: Fasting for a peroid of time
Written By: joeman on 02/27/09 at 9:55 am
I once did a 3 day water fast and not only did my belly get smaller, but it broke my habit of smoking for a good bit. I am thinking of extending the fast for one week to see if more results come in. I heard people have done up to 40 days of fasting on water alone. Anyone here fast for long peroids of time, and if so, what are you recommendatons?

There is a way to do it without doing too much damage. I think it involves taking muli-vitamins and such. I've never done it because of my blood sugar issues.

Fasting for a long period of time can be dangerous(more than 3 or 4 days). You should have a physical first, and talk to a nutritionist. It is more than just not eating.

I could never because I have low blood sugar. If I don't eat, I pass out.

I went without blogging.
Maybe it was better off. :(

For a start, get the 40 day thing out of your head...that will do you serious damage!
Before you attempt anything radical like this, consult your doctor...

I know first hand what fasting can do. I won't go into it (because it's quite scary), but for health and safety's sake, don't ever fast unless it's one of those surgery type deals where you can't eat anything the day before an operation.
That whole 'lent" thing, I still don't understand the meaning of that, even though I know why (I saw 'Chocolat'). If you went even 3 days without eating, it could seriously damage your stomach. I wouldn't advise it

Gosh, I ccouldn't fast like that. I have no will power. I lost 90 pounds but it was because I was sick with my kidneys and literally vomiting everyday. 8-P
I did "fast" from Michael Jackson for two weeks. When I finally did watch him, it was like the first time I'd seen him. ;D
I felt the same way when I was finally able to eat and keep food down and I scarfed a burger. LORD I was HAPPY!
