Can't you just throw your food into the blender? Solves the problem, now it's liquid

I feel for you man - I really do

Joopster,

About the fast, did you check with your Doctor about what fluids to consume, when and potential negative effects. I am concerned you might strip your body of essential nutritional elements including, electrolytes, complex carbs and protein.

If you feel weak, have muscle cramps, heart palpitations or any other major changes please check with your Doctor.

 

[joopster]

I did not consult with a doctor but am drinking plenty of water, gatorade, protein shakes etc.  I actually feel very good...

Joopster,

I dropped 41 pounds last year in 29 days.

28 of those days were in the hospital after open heart surgeries caused by Dr screw-ups.

Some of it was lack of fluid content from all the diuretics they were giving me for Congestive Heart Failure.

Be very careful !!!

You guys are so cruel.  Thanks for the belly laughs!

Joopster, best of luck on your program!

You must have a stronger will than I do!!

Day 7 - this is surprisingly easy

Oh my goodness, I'm just reading this now!

Dare I ask why you are fasting?

(I know this is SOOOOOOOOO none of my business, and I don't judge it, so please know that, and I am amazed at your stamina and strength, of course; but I am simply curious, since I've never ever fasted - not for one day even - and cannot, but what brought it on, if you wish to share)?

Meanwhile, the food pics have been so very beautiful too! What a multi-faceted thread!

Thank you for sharing your doings. I am amazed at your strength and discipline! Whatever works for each individual is fine! I simply wondered what prompted it all. 

Cheers! -  Leah

I just liked the challenge and I could stand to lose 15-20 lbs.

 

[leah elisheva]

Fair enough, indeed!

You are a disciplined one!!!!!!!

Best wishes with your goals and you keeping to whatever regimen you wish!

Thank you for sharing it!!! I won't post food here, and will simply wish you well!

You're very strong!

Cheers! - Leah
