I am curious to find out how much people lost on their 21 day fasts?
I am embarking on a 21 day fast of my own and want to get an idea of how much weight I can expect to lose. I know that it is different for everyone and I won't necessarily lose the same amount as others. I just would like to get an idea of what others have lost on their fasts'. And even if yours didn't last that long ( 3 or 7 days) or lasted longer (30 day) I still would like to hear your story.
Thanks guys :cool:

Hi Jen,

I lost 5 kilos on a 1 week fast.

jenjenn, last spring I did a 20-something-day juice/water fast (5 days water in the middle of it), and lost around 10 pounds.

This winter, I did a water-only fast for 8 days and also lost 10 pounds. I'm pretty light already, so when I got down to 103 pounds, I knew it was time to end the fast. For me, most of the weight returned fairly quick--which I was glad for, as I wasn't fasting for weight loss.
