by: Anonymous

Obviously we could find something bad in almost everything we drink besides water but as for myself, i get the same 1-3 pound weight loss per day by drinking one cup of coffee with sugar free powdered creamer, plain tea, crystal light, and a protein shake. The protein shake has 52 grams of protein and 7 grams of carbs. I'm doing this mainly for the weight loss. So, i guess my point is, keep doing what works for you if it's giving you the results you're looking for, and the best of luck on your journey.

Thank u for all the great comments. Honestly, I did not set out with a plan, per se, I just wanted to have the control, and to drop weight.

I am not even sure at this juncture as to how many days I will be going!

10 days seems like an amazing accomplishment, but after I read all these posts, i.e. 20 or 40 days etc., I feel like a failure - yet , I am so proud of myself to have made it this far (day 7 today) and to be going for the 10 day.

I have cut out V-8 and am going with water with Crystal lite (I know, it is not good for me, but, to my credit, I have never really consumed the stuff up until this point (prior to fast), as I just didn't think I could do it on the water alone, as I get too weak..)

I have now added a few cups of bullian (sp?) broth, which seems to REALLY give me a 'just had a meal" type feeling.

I am truly looking forward to an euphoric type feeling that others have describe, but, alas, none so far ! ;-(

Would love to chat with anyone who would like to buddy up. email, abbysmithny@gmail.com

Good luck! YOU CAN DO IT!

starstarstarstarstar 		sounds good
by: tuprecious

You are doing good -nice start. And I am on a similar fast (day 2) of water mostly with about 3 coffees a day (with cream, no sugar) -so my body can go into ketosis (fat burning, no hunger) and by day 4 I plan on completely cutting out the coffee to do a clean water fast to get the detox happening.

I have tried many times to fast before but usually screw up after 2 days -so this time I am easing into it by letting myself have coffee (to start it off) and hopefully, this time I plan on fasting for a full 23 days. Good luck in your fast -and drinking coffee, V8, protein is still a good way to fast to me.

Powder cream is packed with weird chemicals, V8 is loaded with sodium, and crystal light has aspartame in it.....but hey, if you're accomplishing whatever it is that you have in mind....go for it.

I am on day 2 of a water fast allowing myself a protein shake if needed. As for your fast, do whatever feels good for you and whatever works...
keep up the good work in the end which ever way you go, be proud of yourself it takes alot of courage and perseverance to accomplish a fast...

best of luck

Coffee intake destroys any detox efforts so I can not really say you are detoxifying. I guess you know this and your main goal is to lose the weight, not primarily detox.

So, I would say good luck with your weight-loss plan. Maybe you can try actual detox fasting which basically the aim of a fast is to detox. All the best.
