How much weight will I lose?

The main benefit offered by a fast, to those who wish to lose weight, is the speed of the weight loss. To see a person drop 30-to-40 pounds in a 30-day juice fast is to see a person totally transform his life. Self-esteem is given a boost and for the first time in their life, discipline becomes a lifestyle. The fast becomes a catalyst for a total life overhaul. People start dressing better, showing more confidence, becoming more organized, more dedicated in relationships and more at peace.

Initially, weight loss can be as high as three-to-four pounds per day, but as the fast continues, the average loss will be one pound-per-day. If you are juice fasting and not losing weight, the juice is supplying all the calories you need. You may have to cut down on the juices or alternate between water fasting and juice fasting if losing weight is part of your goal. The slower your metabolism is the slower the weight loss.

Try to stay focused on the healthy things you are doing to improve your life rather than being consumed with the number of pounds lost each day. Water retention can vary your weight five pounds so watching the scale can be frustrating. The best motivation to fast is for physical and spiritual health. Be patient; the fasting process is slow. Be thankful the toxins are leaving your body. Do not have unrealistic expectations. Give your body the time it needs to do the work of cleansing.

Fasting And Metabolism

The fear is that while fasting, the metabolism will slow down and afterward there will be more weight gained than before the fast. Initially, any calorie reduction will cause a lowering in the BMR or base metabolic rate. Cleansing will bring health that will increase metabolic performance and energy output. In other words, you will eat less and feel more energetic.

After fasting, the body is more efficient. Digestion is better due to a cleaner colon. The colon walls have been cleansed of impacted feces, allowing improved absorption of nutrients. The good news is that greater efficiency equals enhanced energy. Healthy people burn more calories. They also eat less because they are more active and feel better about themselves. They don't need food as a security blanket.

The greatest impact you can have on increasing your resting metabolism is exercise. After a workout, you can be sitting on the couch reading while burning calories, as the muscles are grabbing glucose from the blood to replace glycogen supplies. The key to weight loss is fewer calories and more exercise. A diet high in raw food provides fewer, low-density calories, and higher-fiber, more-filling foods.

Oh, by the way, a slower metabolism diminishes aging. A tortoise can live to 400 hundred years of age.

Water is 0 calories, soy milk isn't, so water.

They have a water fasting support thread at the Kimkins site. Some people do a 3 day, others are trying for 7-10 days.

Water, especially distilled water. However, you have to have eaten a healthy diet beforehand to have built up the nutrient reserves for a fast. Some of the answers I read to this question are medically ignorant, so be careful what you do and research people's recommendations first. I have a book that you should read if you are considering a fast, called Fasting and Eating for Health. The author takes a lot of medical facts and translates them into common English so almost anyone can understand. Water fasting also, as it says in the book, has definite health benefits, like helping the body to detox from all the crap and chemicals in the typical American diet. I hope this helps.

Water... Water has no calories. Both types of milk do. Losing weight is all about calorie intake Vs Calorie output.

None of them. The healthy fast is to take a gallon of water put a 1/4 cup of maple syrup, a 1/2 cup of lemon juice, and a sprinkle of cayenne pepper in it. You won't taste the cayenne pepper! Good luck!!

I was able to lose 72 pounds in 3 months. I ate one meal a day no matter what it was. If you try to eat the same thig every day you wont have an urge to eat other things. Then if I got hungry before or after I ate a drink alot of water. Drink Enough to fill you up. Another thing to do when your "hungry" is to keep busy, your really not hungry, your just bored, if you keep yourself busy you can avoid eatting. It worked for me.
