Entering phase 2 of the fast (:

Posted by FreedomStarver on March 11, 2010 at 11:23 PM

So, I just finished four days of strict water fasting. Yay me! But with my family situation I can't keep up the fasting, so I need to start easing back into normal-ish food on the weekend, so I don't:

 

1. Gain a bunch of weight from the lowered metab. from the fast

2. Make my family worried

 

For today, saturday, and sunday, I'm going to do a liquid fast. Which is, I'll drink chicken bouillon broth and watered down organic fruit juices-- not in excess of 400 cals each day.

 

Then on monday I'll eat start eating a small amount of veggies and fruits. This time no more than 300 cals a day. Then on friday I'll boost it up to 500 cals a day, and allow myself unbreaded chicken.

 

From there, who knows?

 

I can't wait for all of this! Ana makes me so happy. Being able to set goals and achieve them is wonderful. I'm beginning to trust myself. I know I can achieve my goals. I can I can I can. I'm losing weight already.

 

Even more excited to be able to exercise once I start eating. My plan is, once I hit a plateau I begin the biking. But right now, as I'm able to lose a lot of weight just fasting&restricting, I want to take advantage of that.

 

I know this is long, sorry! I also can't wait to take a new picture of myself on monday. Hopefully there will be a visible weight loss since last monday.

shuld i do the liquid fast for 5 days?
and then get slowly into eating yogurts after that, like 3 yogurts a day=300 cals
and then get into 500 cal?

Shotgun- Yay! I'm so happy for you. You can do it. (:
Ringlets- Haha, we're all so silly like that on here. Thanks.
Beautyfrompain- Yeah, that sounds perfect! And you'll definitely lose weight all of the days you liquid fast too. You should do well. It's all about easing off the fast.

Sounds like a plan to me! I'm doing the same March 21st. A week of fasting then moving onto soup, oranges and apples. (:
