Have you ever completed an extended fast? (14+ days)?

Have you ever completed an extended fast, juice only or water only for longer than 2 weeks?

If so, what were your experiences?

Weight loss? Energy increase? Decrease? Detox?

I'm considering going on an extended fast but want to know what to expect.

(Serious answers only, please.)

It is possible to lose weight fast but you should be realistic and accept that if you lose weight rapidly then you will inevitably put it all back on again just as rapidly. The one thing that definitely delivered for me was green tea, it can be checked out in the resource box below, they have a few free trials in stock, it was reported in Fox News and USA Today. I shed 20 pounds, it definitely does produce results!

No, I haven't and I probably never will. I don't have the dicipline it takes to stay away from solid foods!! I'm sure it's not pleasant. You'd probably be in a very grumpy mood, due to being hungry all the time and from what I've heard, you'd have no energy.

No I haven't sorry, but from what I've heard your body goes into starvation mode, and retains as much as possible and I imagine that if you don't end up doing serious damage to yourself you feel shit at the end of it and will be stuck with a metabolism desperate to hold onto any weight possible, and I'd go with energy decrease because you body would be trying to resevere as many calories as possible.

Sorry if it wasn't the answer you were looking for, and is that the Cheshire cat from the alice in wonderland game in your pic???

(Be really cool if it was, love that game XD)
