I'm starting to get hungry...
 
I'm doing a 10 day water fast, started today... one day almost gone, about to sleep. Getting hungry though.

Anyone else done one of these?


Don't really know the point of this thread...

Norma J 10.18.2006 12:46 AM

What do you hope to acheive?

Tokolosh 10.18.2006 12:50 AM

I wouldn't do that Golden child. You can food fast for quite a while, 40-50 days before it starts to cause problems, but water fasting can be deadly within days. Watch out with that.

alteredcourse 10.18.2006 01:16 AM

Yeah, what the hell ?
or maybe you eat nothing and only drink water for the 10 days ?

noisemachine 10.18.2006 02:16 AM

So is it only drinking water? Or just no water?
It would be hard to avoid water altogether since its found in so many things.
Either way, its a stupid idea. Really bad for your health and body.

Iain 10.18.2006 08:43 AM

Yes. what are you hoping to achieve? Would be interested to know.

fishmonkey 10.18.2006 08:45 AM

why bother??
are you be sponsored and giving loads of cash to the ikkle black babies of Africa?

sonicl 10.18.2006 08:49 AM

I'm going to have a big fry-up for my tea tonight. Veggie sausages, mushrooms, tomatoes, hash browns, fried egg, toast, halloumi... All washed down with a pint or two of the black stuff. Mmmmmm



Sorry, what was this thread all about again?

ha ha! you evil bastard.

sonicl 10.18.2006 09:13 AM

Oh, I'm full of sympathy, me.

HaydenAsche 10.18.2006 09:19 AM

I should do this. I think Golden/Child means that he's only drinking water and not eating. Right?

I couldn't give up coffee, though.

sonicl 10.18.2006 09:20 AM

That's right. But I don't get the point of the exercise.

HaydenAsche 10.18.2006 09:22 AM

Help starving children?

Easy way to shed pounds?

I'd use it for the latter.

noisemachine 10.18.2006 01:10 PM

Its a bad way to shed pounds, as it will fuck up your metabolism. You will use up the stored body fat, but then when you start eating again everything will go to fat, or something like that. Im sure any respectable doctor would advise against lengthy fasts of any kind.

HaydenAsche 10.18.2006 01:11 PM

Metabolism Shmetabolism.

And blah blah blah Doctors.

golden child 10.18.2006 05:06 PM

cleansing yes.
drinking only water, duh.

golden child 10.18.2006 05:14 PM

ive only been drinking tap water though, and i just read that doing that is useless... so im going to get a burrito and cup of motherfuckin coffee!

Norma J 10.18.2006 06:18 PM

HAHAHAHA

golden child 10.18.2006 06:23 PM

ill see if i can find some water purifier or something, since it needs to be distilled. i was drinking a gallon a day, and i am NOT going to the store to buy 10 gallons of water.

static-harmony 10.18.2006 06:24 PM

Well you could go to the 99 cents store.

Norma J 10.18.2006 06:28 PM

I have a water purifier. They're not cheap things.

i'm fucking starving by the way. looks like we have something in common.

golden child 10.19.2006 06:21 PM

ya, if you dont eat your cells dont have anything to breakdown so they start to breakdown all the toxins to run-on. the feeling you get after not eating for a few days, isnt real hunger, its gastic irritation, real hunger is dangerous and you can go up to 3 months on just water.

the chemicals and minerals in tap water have to be broken down still, so drinking tap water would be counterproductive which is why you must have distilled water.

i still plan on doing it though.

I'm reading the bhagavad-gita right now, but I don't agree with most of the stuff they say. If someone's on your land, you have the right to KILL them and it won't be considered a sin.

It's more along the lines of Chinese medicine.

m^a(t)h 10.19.2006 11:43 PM

Cantankerous 10.19.2006 11:47 PM

there are plenty better ways to detox if you ask me.
