is anybody fasting?

[Guest guest]

I joined here because I thought there would be posting about fasting.

Did anybody start today?

 

My day didn't go so well. I would really be encouraged to hear about

somebody who is fasting. Are you out there?

I asked because I didn't see anybody post about their first day. I

guess I got the wrong impression of what the group is for.

 

Something has come up and I'm unable to fast at this point in time, so

I'll be signing out of the group.

 

thanks,

I will start my fast tomorrow. I never have a hard core stop date

when I start. If I say three days I will go five. So, whats the

point? I will start tomorrow, I guess technically, tonight. When I

do a juice fast I just use store bought juices. I tried the whole

jucer thing and found it to be frustrating and messy. My life, during

the week, is extremely busy. So, I will stock up on juice and hit the

grocery stores around lunch time for a bottle of juice.

 

When I first tried a juice fast I would go to the health food store

for juice during the middle of the work day. What I discovered was

that I was paying twice as much for the same thing I could get at the

grocery store.

 

This may not be popular but I love diet V8 Splash. Yes I know it has

sweetner in it. Whatever. I usually start out the day with a fruit

juice, at lunch time I will have another fruit juice, at dinner time I

will get a veggie juice. I then drink lots of water throughout the

day. As a side perk I lose a lot of weight and can generally keep it

off with a moderate diet and my normal routine of execercise. My

preferred execercise is weight lifting. We have three top of the line

gyms at work and one semi good (read: old equipment) gym.

 

Dont get down on yourself for failures. That doesnt help. The thing

to do is just get back on the path and keep walking. No big

deal.

I have a Champion juicer,which I love. It's very easy to use and I

really like having the fresh juice during a fast. It's

interesting that there is a variety of fasts represented out here.

Nice that the group isn't bound to a single fasting philosophy.

 

I don't see anything that has happened this week as a failure. A

setback, perhaps, but we can learn from most everything that happens.

 

My fasting time will come. I just have a couple of things I need to

work through first.

 

Good luck with your fast!

Yes, I am. Don't worry about false starts, either.

 

Tomorrow is another day.

Thanks. I believe that in the same way the body tells us when to end

a fast, it can also tell us when to (or when not to) begin one. If

the time isn't right, I don't want to start until it is.

Day One, yesterday was a false start!

 

My boss is joining me. I arrived to a Power Size Carrot Orange Juice

from Jamba.

Drink a lot of warm tea such as camomile or peppermint. They are

cleansing and soothing.

 

Your hunger is over, so enjoy!

Agree. I have fasted for 35 years all durations from 7 days to 60 days

following Airola only. Each one has been very special, and this will

be most special of all, as will yours.

Was your 60 day fast done as Airola's juice fast? Best, Timgoldenmike4393 <goldenmike4393 wrote: , "rachd1961" wrote:> Thanks.

Classic Airola, never deviate. Alkaline vegetable juices, mineral

broth, dry brushing, walks, afternoon rests. I lost 60 pounds in

five months last year. I went on the Zone Diet, when I plateaued

twice, I kicked into 30 day fasts each plateau (two times). I am 24%

body fat (healthy) but want to drop to 20% body fat which is another

20 pounds. I am using the Fast to reach my last phase. I lift

weights and ride a bike 10 miles a day. So, it's a combination of

things, but yes to your question: fresh squeezed alkaline juices

(Acme juicerator - had since 1972)

Sounds excellent...yes, those old Acme's are like M1 tanks...I have an old Champion. I have been working down in the Lower Ninth Ward in New Orleans. I came across a mud covered Champion in the ruins of one house...goldenmike4393 <goldenmike4393 wrote: Classic Airola, never deviate.

thanks i love the peperment.it works perfectly

DSL Something to write home about. Just $16.99/mo. or less

[Guest guest]

Notice how much extra time you have fasting? No meal preparation, no

clean up, and a lot of left over money at the end of the month! I can't

think of anything bad about it! I especially love charging my Jamba

Juice card so they make my juice for me. Too cool, like being on

vacation from the drudgery of life!

Did you save it for parts? I have two Acme Juicerators. I bought one

in 1972. I rode my bike 25 miles to a distributor who felt sorry for

me and sold me my machine (used!) Then, about 5 years ago at the flea

market, I found a brand new one and bought it for... (yes) $7.00. I

can interchange the parts. It's nice not having to clean the basket

up before using again. I pull the second basket, juice, then clean

them both when not using Jamba Juice (carrot orange only, none of the

processed stuff).

 

I keep it on my counter along with my other prize possessions: the

huge Kitchen Aid Mixer that cranks the bowl up, and my huge Cuisinart

food processor. hahahaha!

No I didn't save it...I beleive it was probably pretty weel done in by the water and mud. That sounds like a great set-up you have though...

I haven't been in this forum for a long time, but thoguht I would check

in as I am now on day 10 of a water fast.

 

Unlike my previous fasts (only a week each), I didn't start to feel bad

with the toxins beginning to flush until days 5 and 6. I feel fine now,

but was a little trembly early yesterday. I am working normally, which

involves driving 150 miles on Monday and working away from home until

Friday. Hoping to go past 2 weeks, because I really need to get my

blood pressure down and lose a LOT of weight so as not find myself with

diabetes and leg ulcers.

 

Best of luck to everyone else doing the same!
