I'm in the Chinese store as I type this enjoying my last meal for a week plus. Veggie lo mein with brown rice (yes I am a vegetarian). Tomorrow,2/7/13, I will begin fasting for a total of 8 days and am using this thread to log my progress. I expect it to be grueling but enlightening and I'm looking forward to the journey.

Eating nothing for a week? It was nice knowing you. Why would you do such a thing? And where are you going to get your nourishment?

Dang I meant to post this in the off topic forum..sorry if I'm out of order. 8 days is no big deal. Lol Carmelo earlier this year did 15 days while basketball every other day

Whats the fast, eat at nights? Smoothies from Jamba Juice like Cindy Sheehan? What can you imbibe?

I know what you mean...I've been working on half a leftover Veniero's cheesecake since the Super Bowl.

It's a strict water fast. Not consuming anything but water for the next 8 days. I did a 3 day water day fast sometime back and I thought I was going to die. I learned it's all mental and I'm ready this time to go 8 days.

Once you pass the three days it actually gets easier.

why would you or anyone do such a thing?

Good luck man, after your fast you should check out this product called Chawanprash it is like an indian jam, spice tar looking goo that you take twice a day, check it out, good luck again on your fast bro.

"Once you pass the three days it actually gets easier. "

True. Once the body realizes it's starving, it'll start assimilating itself.

Personally, detoxification and healing. Idiosyncratic enlightening, honing will power.

Thanks I'll check on that...what does it do?

Well good luck with it. Not a plan for me, but to each their own.

Thanks. I'll need all the luck I can get. This will be grueling I admit. I'll try my best

my gf turned me on to it, just starting taking it, it has a host of benefits, you can get it in an Indian grocery store or even online.

Go to OT with this stuff.

Post it wherever you want. Good luck with this, it's very difficult but I hear it's very rewarding when you complete it.

Read third post of thread. I meant to post in off topic. Innocent mistake.

I wish you a meaningful and easy fast.

Figured you'd finish the job?
