That's so amazing that you lost that much weight. I wondered if I could ask you a couple of questions.
How much weight did you need to lose in the first place? What exercises did you do and how much? Any supplements help out? Any colonics or enemas used? Thanks so much! Congrats again!

Great Job by: Anonymous
Hi Ant,
I want to say congrats as well. I'm glad you have the energy to go to work. I’m starting my fast today and I have to continue to work as well.
Besides allergies and being overweight (235), I’m in good condition. I’ll be getting a little exercise as I take the bus and then walk to work.
I’m just going to see how long I can fast. I’m looking at this like a test of my willpower or resolve.
I would like to go 25 days but will see how it goes.
I’m going on vacation mid July so I want to start juicing before I go. Wish me luck.

Hi Jennifer by: Ant
Hi there,
The fast consisted of good quality spring water only. (filtered would be better).
Occasionally I did drink carbonated mineral water to give me a feeling of fullness. (It really works)
I also used a good hard body brush every evening after a hot shower, brushing towards the heart always, to stimulate lymph drainage.
I was planning to do a light exercise regimen, but found that with continuing to go to work I didn't have the energy.
Breaking the fast consisted of fresh diluted grape juice or apple juice only for the first few days, followed by watermelon and soft veg for the next few.
I consumed only raw food for two weeks, and then introduced fish and some grains.
Doing this has boosted my metabolism, and because of the low calories, I am continuing to lose weight :)
The amount you lose will also be dependent on the amount you have to lose. I was quite overweight.
Hope this helps,
Take care

Wow, Congratulations!!! by: Jen M
Hey there, congratulations on your 36 day fast! That's amazing that you made it that far and lost SO much weight.
I'd love to hear what kind of fast you did??? I just finished a 26 day fast (Plus 6 days after the fast of eating prunes, then fruit, then lettuce/salad to reignite my digestive system) and only lost 9.5 pounds.
I can't believe you lost so much!!!!
I need to lose about 15 more pounds and would love to get your input. Thanks so much.
