no one?? im going to start the water fast tommarow unless i get a valid pont from someone telling me not to
This may be about a month late, but you should eat hot peppers along with the water fast so you can control your appatite and move all of the crap out of your colon. Also, your doing strength exercise. If you want to LOSE weight, you should focus on cardio and aerobic exercise.
Forget fasting dude. Just cut your calorie intake down to 1500-1700 calories a day, limit the fats to 50g/day (GOOD fats like nuts, oil, and dairy), limit the carbs to like 100g/day (GOOD carbs like whole grains/wheat/etc), and fill the rest in with protein around 250g/day (preferably leaner proteins like turkey/chicken/fish). Keep lifting, but start running 2-3 miles after every lift. The fat will melt off you in a matter of weeks, and it's healthier than a fast.
Not to be a dick, but Step one: Practice English spelling/grammar Step two: Figure out your BMR (google it) and eat about 500 less calories than that (at that rate, you'd lose a lb a week) Step three: Lift weights and do cardio Diet's the most important part, but I'd recommend at least lifting along with it because lifting can actually strengthen your bones (assuming you lift relatively heavy weights for your strength level), which would help with not breaking your bones.
