day 52 juice fast. feeling fine.
I am a rawfoodist of 6 months, who has been fasting for the last 52 days on juices that include primarily seeded red grapes, braeburn apples, celery, cucumber, kale, parsley, pears, carrots, and beets(all organic of course). I drink about 85oz of this undiluted juice daily. I have general tiredness and weakness, my feces is allways dark and sinks heavily. There is some mucus in my stools. I take an herbal laxative a few times a week and do an enema once a week. For the first 30 days of my fast, my stools were very much like diarrhea, while the last several weeks the stools are solid. I went through a phase of near exhaustion, have woken up soaked in sweat a few times. Have had heavily coated tongue and teeth for most of the fast. I had origionally planned to fast for 120 days, (3 times my age.) I was slim to begin the fast, and lost 15lbs more so far, though I have lost very little in last 3 weeks. I am 5'9" and 119lbs. I would appreciate anyones suggestions on how best to transition off the fast, and also on how to decide the fast is over. My goal in fasting has been to completely clean and detox my digestive system and every cell in my body, so that I would be finally able to fully digest and absorb the raw vegetable foods that I put in my body. Thanks everyone, have a great day, and happy new year! rawPaul.
