The Fasting Forum Page for Support and Weight Loss Motivation

This Fasting Forum page is designed to give YOU the opportunity to write about your thoughts, comments and experiences.

Write your fasting story, thoughts, questions, ideas - whatever is on your mind.

Join the discussion and even upload a picture if you wish!

We have still another forum at the bottom of the Juice Fasting Page. If you have any any stories or questions or concerns specifically related to Juice Fasting, go over there and write about it!

We get lots of inquiries about fasting with juice and vegetables.

The goal is to eventually make that particular juice fasting forum grow in equality to this one here.

Any contribution you can make would be awesome.

I am not one for slashing and dicing contributions either.

I want it to go live the way you write it ... with your personality and touch.

All I look for are typos and general grammatical points.

Right now the posts in the fasting forum are queued to go out as an update to the Fasting for Weight L.oss Blog.

The whole point of that is to "ping" subscribers to The Anti-Prevention Nation Ezine and get everyone involved in the responses.

But this "ping" may not go on too long because I obviously do not wish to bombard our subscribers with dozens and dozens of e-mails from the fasting forum posts. In either case, this is YOUR forum.

I personally will respond to any questions you have, so your post will not sit there abandoned without a response if it includes a question.

We so, so wish you the very best.

It is such an honor and privilege to be of service and support to your fasting and detoxification efforts!

Fasting Forum - Write About it! Fasting Stories - Support - Motivation - Questions - Comments - Thoughts - Ideas - This is Your Page!
