I was told that you should do a colon cleanse before starting a fruit fast because fruit digests fast and will ferment any leftover food that’s in your intestines, do you find this to be true or necessary?
Hi love, that is an excellent question. Funny enough I did do a colon cleanse prior to making this video, which inspired me to continue my journey of cleaning my body & participating in this fast. I def. should've mentioned that in my video. So I will be pinning this comment 💛 Based on my knowledge, a colon cleanse does not seem mandatory in order to do a fruit fast and being that I did this for only 5 days, much prep was not necessary. However, since everyone's diet is different I would say even if you can cleanse your colon using easy at-home methods for at least a few days before participating in any fast, that would be great! Always contact a health professional if you plan on doing a long-term fast. 💐 I like watching @DrMindyPelz & @AHealthyAlternative here on RUclips for fasting methods/tips! I found this article written by healtlline very helpful as well: www.healthline.com/health/natural-colon-cleanse
@@ThatIsKei Fruits has fiber therefore you would get cleanse either way. Over time your colon would get clean out. Especially if it's fruits and vegetables.
Excellent video! I enjoyed how you explained every step, plain. I definently subscriped to your channel and look forward to more healthy experiences! Thank you so much🎉
hey love, that should be fine. I ate until I felt full, the only thing I would keep in mind is how much sugar the fruits that you are intaking in large amounts contain. Mangos are super sweet, so I would balance it with watermelon, cucumbers, and water throughout the week. I hope that helps 💕
I’m going on a fruit fast today but I am scared that going lose a lot of weight, I’m already 120 pounds lol do u recommend for me to do the fast for 3 days instead of 5?
Hey love, that is a good question, I am not a health professional, but I would say to trust your gut. Starting with 3 days sounds good! Then depending on your weight, you can stop or choose to continue, the good thing is if you are not looking to lose weight. You can really bulk up with your meals & add healthy fats such as avocados & eat until you feel satisfied & full. I hope that helps 💕💐
My intent for this fast was not to lose weight, so I didn't have "results" per say, but in my takeaways towards the end of the video you'll see that my mindset towards food shifted. I felt more energized & renewed! 💛 definitely a fast I would recommend.
Great idea!! I usually like to make my own food, but I caved and bought one in the can instead, I will definitely make my own soup next time. Thanks for the suggestion 🥰
That's a great question, yes! I felt more clearheaded when reading the word & I also prayed a lot more on the days I was struggling with temptation of junk food.
Im doing it now and I definitely feel spiritual. I have been doing a lot of unexpected crying and I know it's because God is purging me so things that have been suppressed are coming up. It's painful yet beautiful...
You can purchase it at a local Caribbean/ Asian market. They do sell seamoss online as well such as Etsy, but do your thorough research. I prefer getting mine in person! 💕
My intent for this fast was not to lose weight, so I didn't have "results" per se, I was not paying attention to amount of weight. Sorry! 🥺 I do know that I lost some pounds though,I felt much lighter after this fast.
Most vegetables are actually fruit! Cucumber, avocado, eggplant, squash, zucchini, peppers, and tomato all have seeds inside, which make them a fruit! They just have less sugar than other fruit like mangoes, apples, and peaches. I learned that a few years ago and my entire world was turned upside down. Now every time I am in the supermarket I feel a little empty inside. All of the food I once thought were vegetables, are actually fruit! The only real vegetables are the leafy ones like lettuce and a few others.
I didn't focus on weight this time around, so I wouldn't be able to provide an exact number. I will say I felt much lighter & some pants that didn't fit me by a few inches finally did! 🙌🏾So the more consistent you are the more results you will see, weight wise. 🤍

I didn't detox prior to doing my fruit fast and doing just fine. Day 7

Aw, thank you! 😅💚
Doing a 5 day fruit fast starting tomorrow🩷💪
How was it?
@marahvalus it was awesome. Had alot of energy and went down 5 but that was 2 months ago.
@@tpimministries2012 that’s great. I lost about 7 lbs but it came back as soon as I ate food 😞 hopefully yours stayed off.
@@marahvalusdid you try to keep it off? Like exercising or like keeping a well maintained diet or smth or idk, just curious cuz I wanna try it
Am in 10th day .. I will go for next 20 days. I must have to see my dream body.
Thanks for sharing, what supplements did you take?
Im 19 yrs old and im 44kgs...is it ok if i eat more than 3 mangoes a day???
hey love, that should be fine. I ate until I felt full, the only thing I would keep in mind is how much sugar the fruits that you are intaking in large amounts contain. Mangos are super sweet, so I would balance it with watermelon, cucumbers, and water throughout the week. I hope that helps 💕
Fruit and vegetables don't have a lot of calories, eat until you are full!
I’m going on a fruit fast today but I am scared that going lose a lot of weight, I’m already 120 pounds lol do u recommend for me to do the fast for 3 days instead of 5?
How did it go? Even 1 day is intimidating lol

You don't see the benefit until day 3, so do for 5 days. You'll lose fat not muscle. Just eat more, a lor more.
Goat Milk is great to go along with fruit fasts too
Thank you for this video. I loved how you explained everything. It motivated me to start today. I most definitely took notes. 🙌🏾🫡🥰
Your comment made me smile ☺ I'm so happy my video provided some motivation. I hope you enjoyed this fruit fast as much as I did! 💕
How much weight did you loose
so what happened because you didnt give us any results

Beautiful video, i think its best you make your lentils soups from scratch, its very easy.
Great idea!! I usually like to make my own food, but I caved and bought one in the can instead, I will definitely make my own soup next time. Thanks for the suggestion 🥰
Did u feel anything spiritual about it?

Great eye! 😉 Yes, I am Belizean & so proud! 😅🇧🇿❤️

This is more a fruit n vegetable fast.
I did not have vegetables. Cucumbers, avocado and tomatoes are all considered fruit. I did add garnish which are herbs but that is 100% optional ✨
@@ThatIsKei
Oh wow I did not know that! My apologies… I will do that as well
@@mrsduncan8247 no need for apologies, I made sure I included as much fruits as possible. 😂 I hope you enjoy this fast as much as I did! 🤍
