In essence, you are going through a healing crisis. If you want to feel better - don’t eat. Try to switch over to a water fast for at least 4 days. Take some magenisum or dieter’s tea to cleanse your colon (this will help relieve the pains you are experience - they are the result of toxins being released into your system). After 4 days of water fasting (or more if you can), switch back to juice fasting for 4 days. After that, re-introduce solids into your diet, STAYING with raw foods for a few days. Be kind to yourself! Others are pleased in you!   [End]

If you can get it, you really should be consuming alkaline water. I have a special machine that splits the water into alkaline and acidic (you are alkaline, inside, your skin is acidic). The only catch, is that the machine cost me about $6,000!! Of course - I do not have ANY medical bills, so it evens out. Stick to distilled/flitered water. Unless you can get your own water FROM a spring (actually go to the spring and get it), don’t dring spring/mineral water. Be kind to yourself! Others are pleased in you!   [End]

Yes - physiologically speaking, exercise is one of the best things you can do while fasting. It helps move toxins out of the system, and keeps your metabolism from slowing down. I always exercise while fasting, putting in at least an hour of cardio a day. This may be too much for some people. A 20 minute walk will suffice. Be kind to yourself! Others are pleaed in you!   [End]

When fasting, you really SHOULD be cleaning your colon out. How else do you expect to get rid of all those toxins? Many people neglect this - and then wonder why they get SICK while fasting. It is because those toxins are literally - just sitting there! Of course you will feel sick! I have discovered that magnesium is the best way to clean the colon. It does not lead to cramps, like sena products. It is very cleansing, and will help with the ”smell” (people fasting tend to have a stong body odor due to toxin release). I like to use a product called ”CALM”. Type it in on the in ...

4 days at most... About 3-4 years ago I was fasting one day a week. I am just getting back into the habbit, preparing for a longer fast. I completed a 4 day fast about 3 - 4 weeks ago.   [End]

Wow! That is all REALLY great!! Your system is doing some SERIOUS detoxing. ENJOY!!! Keep dowing the water. Dirreha is your body’s way of expelling toxins. ENJOY the experience...lol! You are NOT harming yourself. You are actually doing yourself a great service. The exhaustion comes from detoxing. It takes a lot of energy to ”clean house”! Nap when you need to - even if it is only 10 minutes at a shot. Try to stay active - it helps burn up the toxins (and avoids boredom). Be kind to yourself! Others are pleased in you!   [End]

lol...Hummm... Nap, watch movies, exercise, go shopping, read, write in a journal, surf the web, have long talks with oneself, write letters to people you PROMISED to write to 5 years ago, make up your Christmas wish-list now (why wait!?), paint, draw, color, do something nice for someone, have sex (or just fantasize)... I know what you mean about the boredom thing. You are not ”unusual”. Fasting kind of forces you into ”getting your head together”. It is hard to fight the urge to going back to the ”old ways”. Keep trying - with practice, it DOES get easier (I’m one who has ”practice ...

That was a very thoughtful message... Here is my positon. First - I am a model. It is my job to be fit and trim. I am not anorixic or bulimic. Basically, I eat a balanced diet, with suppliments, alkaline water, and lots of exercise. I am VERY healthy. I practice alternative medicines...which brings to my ”problem”. Like everyone else in this world, I handle my distress by eating...and eating, and eating. Lately, my life has been a little more distressfull than normal! THAT is what the real issue is. The second I eat a little more than necessairy, I know there is something ...

Thank you for the encouragement. Here is what happened... I started my fast - went two full days. On Day 2, I had to travel out of town. It was a LONG drive, as I was very tired. I went into SERIOUS detox late that night (spent lots of time in the bathroom!). I had informed my friend of my fast (who’s home I was staying in). Her FIANCE was so upset at the notion - that on Day 3 I gave up. Since then, I have only fasted for one full day. All this is good, however! I proved I COULD do it! And that I should NOT do it when in the presence of conservative company (and when a bathro ...

Hey, folks. I am at wits end, here... I am a model, and have gain 6 lbs in 2 weeks time. Basicly, I am extreamely distressed. So I need to loose weight quickly, and calm my nerves. And I most definitely could use a cleansing! I have fasted before - about 4 years ago!! At that time, I only did 3 days. I hope to go a minimum of 4 days - more if I can handle it. My problem, is that I really am terrified of fasting. I am one of those people who eats out of distress - and KEEPS eating. I work-out LOTS (as you can imagine - with my profession). But if you can’t stop stuffing your ...
