Questions ... could be TMI

[Raene]

I heard Angela Stokes speak recently about how she was juice feasting and still having bowel movement after several weeks. Can someone tell me...what happens after that? Do you just not have to poop anymore when you're juice feasting or fasting in general? Or do you have really watery diahhrea-like poop? I don't understand.
I know, I'm seeking TMI. But I don't get it and I'm curious since I haven't done a cleanse or fast.

I am by no means a fasting expert however my understanding of this is that if we are just putting into our bodies liquid with no fiber (this would assume she was straining her juice) our bodies will naturally stop producing "poo", thus MOST fasters employ some sort of method to continue to eliminate residue, etc. from the colon such as enemas, Salt Water Flush, Dieters Tea, Colonics, etc. Because even though our bodies don't have the BULK of fiber to help toxins and waste out of our bodies they still need to be ushered out or we aren't accomplishing exactly what we are wanting to accomplish by doing a fast in the first place. There are differing opinions on this subject - this is just mine.

Blessings,

I would check with Aleesha. She is a long term faster and not averse to sharing details.:D The juice fasters thread might have some info as well.
