For health reasons, I like to do a fast for about three days from time to time. I've been reading about seven and ten-day fasts and I'd like to hear more about them.
Has anyone here done seven or ten day fasts? If so, what was your experience? What did you drink other than water? Did you eat fiber?
Else, I've done fruit juice (unsweetened) fasts for up to three weeks. Lots of energy, great weight loss, feels great. Just don't travel too far away from the terlet.

Brown Rice, Water, and all the fruits and vegetables you can eat. I did this once. I did feel great. The downside is that you get really hungary and are allways eating something. It's worth it though.
I'm about to do a "All, Cooked, Flesh Fast."

Interesting topic. I guess it must do good to the body to fast, and get rid of toxins and excess weight.
I' m sure that some illnesses could be avoided if people ate a little less.
Thinking about doing a long fast
do it
Just be sure your ready. It was weird realizing that I missed chewing. Set a date and plan on it, rather than deciding at the last minute by telling yourself, 'ok, tomorrow, I'll do this'.
I only ever lose 5 lbs or so, but do feel better and do not eat as much once I start eating again. I didn't drink anything else, although it advised it drink some kind of tea (can't remember now).
Drink plenty or you will get hungry!
I'll send you the instructions I used.
For a minute there, I thought you wrote..."Thinking about doing a long fart".
Well, maybe that will come later, after your "diet".
I gotta get new glasses.
