Starting my 21 day water fast today (or last night)

#1

Hi! Im Lacey, a 26 year old Advanced EMT. I have two daughters (4&1) and I’m an overweight binge eater.
I’m finally doing this. I’ve started and quit so many times after a day or two because I get into my head so much. I also think its because I feel alone. I have always used food for comfort so when things get hard I bail and binge eat. I want to do this for my mental health and to reset my body. I’ve treated it horribly with crappy foods and stress. I just want to feel better. I know I will need accountability and motivation from others during this fast, so is there anyone who wants to join with me?

The weight loss is a bonus for this as I’m about 80-100 pounds overweight. Ive struggled with weight my entire life, and I’m just to that point where enough is enough.

Anyone wanna join? I’ll post here every day!

Hello Lacey!
I wish you good luck on your water fast. I just started mine yesterday, also 21 days. I have never done a fast this long before, my longest was 7 days. So I am nervous. I hope it all goes well for you and look forward to your updates!

Hi Ladies,
I’m new in the forum . I am in the same journey 21 days fast . Today is my day 6.
I’m happy to join this group .
I am 54 , 4 children , overweight, I am powerless over the food .
I started at 111,8 kg = 246.4 pounds=17.6 stones.
So far I lost
I have already tried , once water fast and dry fast but not more than 7 days . I do regularly religious fasting 18 hours.
My goal is to improve my health . My legs seems less swollen since I started . Less pain in my joints , knees. I noticed improvement that’s good sign .
I am too nervous doing 21 days water fast , knowing I have to cook for the children .
I haven’t yet started exercising. I will when I’m les heavy in weight . I don’t want to damage my knees and joints .

Hi! I’m new here and I would LOVE to join in on this. I’m hoping to do a 25 day water fast. I’ve struggled with weight my whole life, lost about 127 pounds and then had a baby and gained about 90 pounds. I’m ready to do this and join with people who are as well!!
