49 Days/7 Weeks Completed on a Cleansing Fast and I'm Still Kicking!

On Dec. 28, 2009 I started a 40 day cleansing fast but it ended up being 49 days! It was one of the hardest things I've ever done for myself and I'm happy to tell you I survived!!! For the first 2 weeks I was nearly bedridden as I was dumping so many toxins.

I started off insulin resistant w/high blood pressure and overweight. I choose to fast w/my own homemade organic meat/veggie broth and raw milk. I consumed 2 to 3 servings of 8 oz of broth daily and one 8 oz raw milk daily for 4 of my 7 weeks of fasting. During my 4th week I added fresh young coconuts and their water to my existing fast for the electrolytes as my neck was very stiff and painful. When one fasts the toxins go to the weakest part of the body and that just so happens to be my neck.

Weeks 5 and 7 I did water only, man oh man was that hard yet very satisfying. Week 6 was broth and milk. During the entire fast I consumed copious amounts of good clean water.

I no longer crave sugar and my BP is now normal. I was rarely hungry and I had a lot of support from my husband but a lot of naysayers popped their ugly heads up to criticize me. I initially lost 30 lbs but I'm up 12 lbs. Over all I'm down 18 lbs and just at the high end of normal weight for my height and age.

I'm eager to go on another fast to finish cleaning up this body and getting rid of the last few lbs to a lower normal weight. If I can be of assistance to you please don't hesitate to ask.
