Day 19. And stuff...
Hmmm.... Day 19 today... Tomorrow, then, is obviously day 20... A well rounded number. One a guy could call this fast of his off, and slowly and carefully integrate whole foods into his diet again. I'll think about it... Really not sure how far I want to take this. I know I have a lot of detoxing to do, but, how much to do the first time? Should I break things off now? End with a bang and do a liver flush after 20 days of fasting? Go for another 20? In all likelihood I'll continue on... See how much I can get done. Doing OK so far.. So... Any advice from experienced fasters is welcome! To answer some questions, I have lost some body fat, not a great deal as I didn't have much to begin with. I haven't lost any muscle mass that I'm aware of... I haven't been paying very close attention really... You can't really lose healthy tissue on the Master Cleanse though. It contains all the minerals/vitamins/calories/building materials a body needs for the duration of the fast. Supposedly, any and all weight loss can be attributed to toxins, calcium deposits, mucous, fecal matter, water, etc. being cleansed from the body. And there's a lot!
On a different note, I got my DSL connection going on my new computer! 1.5mbps. Not too shabby! I LOVE this thing! This'll probably translate to more frequent blogging, and, sadly... A LOT of wasted time. I've always had a weak spot for losing my self in a good video game... Now I have the worlds best at my finger tips... Blast all this power! My kingdom for some will power! Ha ha. I had previously been doing all my net based stuff at the families house. Now I have set up in my bedroom! Much less hassle not having to venture over there every day... Less wasted gas too... But, I suppose we won't be seeing much of each other anymore. Hmmm.... A good thing?
I would now like to address an issue. To those of you thinking about trying your own fasts, PLEASE! Do your homework before beginning! You MUST prepare! There is also a specific way you need to "break" the fast! You can kill yourself if you don't know what you're doing! I advise you to go buy "The Master Cleanser" by, Stanley Burroughs. Or, head to curezone.com for all sorts of fasting/misc. health info.
