Water Fast Journey

[Michael Swayne]

Since you so adamant about doing it, who are we to stop you? We are just a bunch of gamers that are worried about a friend of ours.

If I may make a suggestion though. Why not start slow? Only do it for 5 days and then take a break. Then, the next month make it 10 days. And so on. Allow your body to adapt to the changes you are doing to it.

You don't see a novice weightlifter start out lifting 400 lbs. at a time. You don't see someone who has never ran before complete a marathon. They work up to their goal. You should set yourself little goals along the way to the main goal.

Clearly your body wasn't ready for the change you made to it. You said yourself that you collapsed. You have to learn to crawl before you can walk, dude.

Good luck, either way. I am sure that we all are pulling for you.

As much as I talk way too much. I generally avoid these topics because I know I dont have the knowledge to offer.

I think what your doing is great and i envy your determination if your so sure its a good thing.

But on the other hand you collapsed dude. Clealy body said NO. I for one can go without anything apart from water for a week, even without sleep for 5 days at a time under certain circumstances without skipping a hearbeat. But if your blood pressure went all crazy **** - sorry seemed appropriate - what science says, if it sends your body crazy it aint good for you.

But seriously I envy you for wanting and seeming to have the determination to do this

Noone here is arguing your determination, but for **** sake, it could be put to better use. Please site me these sources for your information which claim that water fasting (in that Fasting at ALL) is healthy. Having studied health myself, when im wrong the world makes less sense. Thats how adamant I am about my knoweldge on this topic. If you would, please source this page so that everyone can judge the knoweldge you've come to undertand as being truth.

Although after having blacked out and being in hospital, one would think that it wasn't good for you. I understand you want to do good and its admirable that you would make such a sacrifice, but without credible sources and even on your own practical terms (passing out) it just proves that theres nothing beneficial about it and its harmful to yourself.

Is Fasting Healthy?

This is an article that shows practical information in reguards to fasting.

I have to agree (although I hate doing so when im so uninformed) No matter what sources youv'e found it is probably pritty dangerous like most sources will say... especially since it caused you to pass out. You really shouldn't go through with this.

Medical science is really unexplainable atm. It might be ok for some people to do this but I wouldn't carry on with your experiances, not while theres so much debate over it at least.

Like I said I admire your conviction shit loads. But I cant help but tell you to give it up xD
