Anyone out there who could possibly help me in a water fast for about ten days. I really want to do one, but I need some seriouse support. I normally keep eating....

10 days seems very long. I had a friend who did something similar but she was staying with a well-educated herbalist who created lots of different liquid concoctions that kept her feeling all right all day. I hope that you have a program based on research that you will be following. Fasting will do you no good if you're not putting the right stuff in your body through the liquids you take. I can't be your fast buddy but I'll wish you good luck with it and make sure you take care of yourself!

I assume you are fasting to either loose weight or to do a colonic cleanse. Both of which can be done with water, broths, juices, teas etc. Just water will cause you to lose a lot of minerals and vitamins since most you get come from your food. Plus going on a liquid diet gives you more of a chance for success over a water diet since you have a variety of options in taste. Sometimes you just want a nice cold glass of juice.

I would drink fruit juice-freshly squeezed-no sugar. I have been doing the zig-zag type of diet-I eat whatever I want for 2 days-then eat hardly anything for 3! I am losing weight! It got me over my plateau. I will do it with you if you can't find someone. I would recommend an appetite suppressant-that helps on my low cal days to keep from over-eating. I also have a 6 day diet plan-specifics outlined-that is similar to this. Email me and I will tell you about it-if you are interested.

I would even try a juice fast for 2-3 days first. If that works for you, move to a water fast.

Good luck with that one...I personally plan on nourishing my body rather than starving it. But more power to ya if that's what you want.

10 days is too extreme..try 2 first and then work your way up
