I want to do one to be closer to God and to detox my body of all the garbage. So if you have done this, how long was your first fast?? What should I look out for?? Please help, any info whether it be spiritual or physical would really help me. Thank you!!

Do not use Gods name to cover up for this!!!
drug addicts and alcoholics need detox, your body is cleansing itself - thats the way God created it.
when you deprive/starve your body all you lose is water weight and muscle not fat and slow down metabolism not even talking about gaining back more weight when you start eating again.

Hey First talk to a doctor and nutritionist. I went on a 40 days juice fast for spiritual reasons. You will feel hungry going into and will ease up after about a week, you will feel nausau, and get random headaches.....don't do it if it is for weightloss purposes as you will loose all your muscle and your body fat will skyrocket....But if you do fast, listen to your body at all times and break when needed...while breaking fast start with steamed veggies and slowly go into boiled rice and fruits..
Need to know anything else, let me know..
