Day 1

Day 1
Weight 257
Today is my first day of fasting. I plan to continue for 40 days. I woke up at 3:45 with the runs from drinking too strong of tea from the colonix 30 days. Hopefully I won't have a problem at work today.

I'll post later how I am doing appetite and tummy wise. My first "home" project, while Leah is gone, will be to clear/clean out the refridgerator/freezer. I am excited!

Well tomorrow I have to title this thread with my name rather than my days!
So far so good @10:39am. I do believe I am allergic to the Colonix that I started on Sat. morning. My nect and eye are swollen from exzema and I feel my tongue is wierd, and the only new thing is the Colonix. So I will return it to get my money back.

Curious, how much weight did you lose from the fast ?

heywoodwalker · 10-29-2007, 02:22 PM

I haven't really been on it yet. Today is the first day for the water fast. I have read that whatever you loose on the water fast, that when you begin to eat again that you gain 1/2 back. So I believe I'll need to loose 160lbs in order to loose 80? Just kidding about the 160. I plan to try a 40day fast, that will bring me to December 10th which is a special day for me. I do not know how much I will loose, but I will keep posting my progress here. Currently it is 1:21pm and I am hungry. I will continue my water (filtered) and pray that I can get through today. The first 2-3 days are the hardest hunger wise. After that, Ketones kick in and appetite drops.

Urgh! I feel like I'm starving and I want to quit. It is 4:22pm and I have had my 64oz of water so far. Tonight I am going to also make brownies (my boss' birthday is tomorrow)to use up my mix from Sam's Club, and also through out most of the left over food in the house. Old stuff mostly. I am hoping and

that I can make it through tonight. Help me higher power to not give in to this body's cravings. Give me strength to get through this evening.

Hi Brenda, just wanted to check in to see how you were doing on the fast
I would love to do one, but I know I could probably get thru one day only without food, Hang in there

Well, I gave up the fast as of 6:20pm. I had actually fasted 20hrs though

Now I'm going to switch to WW flex. I am so crazy with this need and want to loose, yet not want to give up food. I got a book that talks about the internal reasons why I am not losing. Perhaps it can shed some light on my emotional stuff that keeps me putting my hand to mouth, spoon to mouth, fork to mouth.

Thanks for your interest Joybird. Good luck on all of your weight loss.

Hi Brenda, I have started a 24 hr fast today, Im not sure if I can do it, but will give it a go. My problem is that Im not losing weight, Im not cheating, Im exercising and I havent lost anything for 2 weeks, so Im wondering if a fast will shock me into losing.
Good Luck with WW
