I Am A Giant Cow

That is why I will work my entire life to become thin again

Fast next week? Any takers? 10:16 AM

So I know I'm going to have a food heavy weekend with the family, so I'm definitely going to have to fast next week - anyone want to fast with me? I'm thinking either two or three days...I need to shed some pounds....Summer is just around the corner!!

Also does anyone have any good tips on how to break a fast?

Who's coming with me?!?

what days do you want to fast? I think I can do it if I had some support.

Hey Natasha (and Rachel)-- I have actually just started a fast (I'm on day 2), but I will definitely still be fasting whenever you decide to start. So I'm down!

Good luck on your fast girls!! I would love to fast with you all, but I need to finish my thesis this week and fasting takes all my energy. After this next week, I'll fast anytime you'd like :)

In terms of breaking your fast, I've read that it's best to start with non-acidic juice (usu. cut w/ water), then when you feel comfortable, slowly nibble on a piece of fruit or vegetable (again not acidic). Don't eat anything spicy or meats until your body is adjusted. I try to stick to fruits and veggies and broths for a awhile after fasting so I don't gain a bunch of weight back. The longer you fast, the less hungry you'll be when you resume eating since your metabolism will have slowed. Which is fine... don't eat just because you feel like you're "supposed to."

But just listen to your body and do what you feel comfortable doing :) All my support!!!!

I'm down! I'd like to start Sunday, because that's usually my binge day. But everyday this week has been a "binge day" so I need to shake things up a bit...

How does sunday through however long you can take it sound?
