Fasting Forum

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 also have an Expanded Forum where you can register as a community member, create your own avatar and post links to your website, if you have one. Our goal is to give "fasters" as many tools as possible to communicate and exchange information related to fasting, cleansing, weight loss and overall health & wellness.

We do NOT slash contributions either. We want whatever you write to go live the way you write it ... with your personality and touch. All we look for are typos and general grammatical points. The posts in this forum are queued to go out as an update to the Fasting for Weight Loss Blog. The whole point of that is to "ping" subscribers to The Anti-Prevention Nation Ezine to get the maximum number of people involved in the responses.

This is YOUR forum. We will respond to any questions you have, so your post will not sit there abandoned without a response if it includes a question. Good luck in your fasting and detoxification efforts!

Note: Due to the large number of submissions we receive, and due to the delicate nature of Internet surfing, NOBODY under the age of 18 is permitted to post in this forum, even WITH parental permission. It is always our primary objective to protect our children and youth - and we simply are not willing to take any chances. In short, if you are under 18, please DO NOT post messages in these fasting forums.

Caution! You are making a public post! Every message posted on Fitness Through Fasting.com is built into an actual web page, and will be available to the worldwide public. Do not disclose personal information in your message, unless that is what you want to do. Keep your email address, your phone number ... private!

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


Have a great story about Fasting? Need Help? Have Questions? Looking for a Buddy? You're in the right place! Share with us what is on your mind! Let's build a dynamic fasting forum we can all benefit from!

You can write about anything related to fasting: tips, struggles, success stories, questions - whatever experiences you had with fasting.
