I have lupus and I did numerous of fast before but this one will be my longest one trying to head for 31 days...20 days water and 10 days of dry fasting, I know it seems intense but over the past few months I've bin doing 14 days fast I don't have to take any meds for my lupus and after years of doctors telling Me I couldn't and shouldn't get pregnant I was bless with my baby boy and my lupus has bin in remission for two years now!!! #FASTINGJUNKY😎😎
That is so true I have loss over 100 pounds in 5 months from researching about water fasting and listening to you and making it a lifestyle. I love it and I have heal so many health conditions that was giving me a hard time and I can never turn back to my old ways because fasting is definitely a lifestyle for me now until God call me 🤙 home
Please do not go back to eating fast food as soon as you break your fast. You will feel like crap and you will hurt. Treat yourself like a new born baby when you decide to break your fast. 🤗 Please try not to weigh often because you will gain weight and it will discourage you. Stay focused and you’ll see your results. After your fast, junk food will not taste the same. If you like salty chips, it will taste like you’re eating a bag of crunchy salt. 😂 I loss 15 LBS in January 2020. February goal is 10 LBS. I’ll try to make it 14 days on water fast. 😁✌🏽 I do breathe better while running. I really need to go back to Africa so that I can eat some real food. 😩😂
The same meats and veggies and fruits are in America as well as Africa. It is not that they have better food it is all about food preparation and like you stated stay away from fast foods..
Some people will never understand how hard it can be for someone who is obese to tie their shoe laces... it's the simple things that improve your quality of life.
Day 1 and Day 2, the hardest but keep drinking water. I had so many first days, and that's okay so be kind to yourself. I found that having a plan, like add your alarm to drink water. Every 2hrs 500mls works for me. Some days I can only take a sip or 2 but do what you feel comfortable with. Also I find if I add 1tsp celtic salt to your drink first thing in the morning, then every other alternative I add 1tsp apple cider vinegar to 1tsp lemon juice. I find this works for me. Be kind to yourself. You got this
Cravings on my cycle are challenging but I lost 40lbs in about 2-3wks when I was sick so I know fasting works I'm a emotional/compulsive eater, I stopped getting high and hanging out though so I know I can do it just gotta keep at it
I’ve not only lost weight, but also reversed high blood pressure and fatty liver with water fasting. Alternating extended fasting and OMAD works best for me! Thanks for another insightful video and helping spread the truth!
Patrice Godfrey I started vlogging my experience on RUclips to help spread awareness. You can click my icon and it will take you to my channel. But basically I started a series of fasts. I’ve incorporated fasting into my lifestyle and I’ve never felt better! I also used to have chronic pain from my liver- that is gone now too!
I'm starting another water fast tomorrow. Refeeding correctly is my biggest downfall. I completed a 14 day and a 48 hour so far this year. I went from180 lbs to 159 lbs on the first water fast. Gained back some weight. Went up to 167 lbs. Second water fast 167 lbs to 164 lbs. Let's do water fast #3!!!
I'm on day 12 have no symptoms anymore! No hunger or weakness. Just hate the taste of water 😅 But I'm not loosing weight on the scale the way I expected, just a few grams from the last 3 days and it was starting to demotivate me! This video was very encouraging...plus I lost many inches, pants that didn't fit me 12 days ago, are now fitting 😃 My goal is 18 days, I'm keeping strong.
Start out slow by cutting out sugar and processed foods and intermittent fasting. It makes it way easier to go into prolonged fasts. I also watch as many fasting videos as I can to stay motivated. Taking starting out weights, measurements, and photos as accountability are a must as well before starting.
I always say that, because in church I have always noticed that none of the oldest saints, particularly the men, are obese. There are, however, “hip heavy” older women though….my understanding is that weight isn’t as dangerous as stomach weight, hence they can live longer with that type of weight…..
Currently on a 15-21 day fast. This information is sooo helpful. This is like my 4th or 5th time fasting and I’m definitely having different symptoms. I’m having chills and am cold. But I’m feeling way more euphoric than I did n the other fast. I’m actually happy with myself idk it’s weird but I’m not complaining lol. All praises to the most high for giving me the strength to get through this.
Last night I made up my mind, I gained 20+ pounds in less than two weeks binging on ice cream after working hard to lose 65lbs. I’ve been struggling with this for a while and I’m tired. My mind is made up. I want to do a minimum of 30 days (720 hours) I’m 16 hours in and I’m not stopping until I undo the damage I’ve caused. I can see that 20+ pounds and I feel it. My back is killing me, I feel like a slob. My goal is to get out of the 200’s and break my sugar addiction. I’m down 5.4 pounds since yesterday.
I actually had to save this video to write down a rough draft to make my prep boards but I’m going to label it wrongs/ Goal/ right on a presentation board from the dollar tree store and come back to this video to set up a month goal.
Make Lemon Ginger Blast (juicing recipe is on my channel). OR, heat 16oz of distilled water, squeeze 1 lemon to the water along with 1/4 Tsp of ginger & turmeric power and 1/8 Tsp of Cayenne and 2 packets of stevia. Shake and drink 1-2 times daily. I add more Cayenne to get rid of the mucus but you can boil ginger slices in the water if you want to use fresh ingredients. Lemon Ginger blast knocked my cough out in 1 week....and I coughed up mucus for 2 years.
This video is so timely. I'm sitting here so frustrated about my weight and want to desperately to lose. Fasting is so hard but I know necessary for healing not just weight loss. But appetite is such a stronghold. You don't know how you have encouraged me to start. Last Sept I managed 21 days. The first 10 were the Master cleanse and the last 11 was water. I was so disappointed with the weight loss results 😫 I got depressed afterwards. Even though I felt good and I had less arthritis knee pain 🤔 I could not get over the seemingly little weight I had lost. So I will try again a few days if fasting each week. And I will listen to this video again as needed for motivation. Thank you and keep up your good work. I'm not on Facebook anymore so I can't join that group.
I would like to say a big thank you to you Chris, your videos have helped me to reverse and overcome diabetes and change my whole life. I started at 106kg and now weigh 80kg. I'm on day 20 of my 30 + water fast. Love your videos they are a big inspiration for me.
That's amazing!! I love that you where able to reverse your diabetes because so many people think they have to live with it!! Wow, I'm genuinely honored to have played a role in helping you along your journey. Thank you for sharing!
I'm currently doing alternate day fasting with omad....so roughly 40 hour fast and eat one meal. In February I'm going to aim for 48 hrs and then 72 hrs fasting 🤞🏽
This info is amazing. Unfortunately I went crazy the night before i started my fast. But I will implement a plan for refeeding. This is awesome. Also not being able to breathe is one thing that happens to me when i gain too much weight. This last time was my last straw. I am determined. I’m on day three now!
Found your channel living here in mainland China. YES! Mental and physical prepping is essential. I eliminated bad foods: flour, white sugar, before my first 10 day.fast last year. Prep your mind. Deeply think about what you’re going to do before you start. I’m on my second 10 day fast. Cleaning out you colon, with herbal enemas - green tea or coffee, REALLY helped to killed my detox symptoms. A coffee enema wiped out my shaky weakness and flushed out accumulated crap.
Glad I found this video! I did a 3day water fast the other day and I hopped on the scale & saw I was gaining and I was so annoyed n confused. Lol I was working out too...now I’m just focused on eating right not even gonna worry about the scale right now.
I took the 40 day wellness class. It’s amazing! It taught me life lessons not just to manage my weight but also my emotions that lead me to use food as a coping mechanism. Highly recommend trying the fasting academy if anyone is suffering from mentally breaking up with the American diet
This might be one of my fav videos of yours. I've fasted a few times and have tried to get started again and can't build up the motivation. Your breakdown of how to approach fasting and coming up with a REAL action plan to my trouble areas is so simple but I wasn't writing down a plan and doing the work. And the heaven/ hell exercise will help me understand my true WHY for getting healthy. Thank you for all that you do.
This is an excellent video teaching. Especially worth listening Thru the whole thing to the “heaven & the hell” analogy. Having a solution does help being able to talk about this reality. Thanks for continuing such high quality, timely information and help.
Chris you have inspired me so much! i fell off the wagon last year and a little over a week ago I decided to get back on track, I gained all my weight back and more, and i am feeling terrible, not just because of the weight but because like you said, i struggle to even tie my shoe laces! i have experience with water fast and I mentally prepared for a 21 day water fast. I have been watching your videos because i find so much motivation on them! this one just made me want to cry out of inspiration! thank you I'm 75 hrs into my fast, i feel great and i have lost 7 lbs as of this morning!!
I've been doing the 5 days water fast for 3 months. lost about 30 lbs since January, but that feeling great and amazing level I have never reached. I constantly feel weak and lethargic and I prep and all, So what advice would you give me to help make it less Exhausting?
All this year I've been fasting. My longest fast was a dry fast of 16 days (no water and no food) but 2 months later I'm on day 10 of my water fast, I have 40 days left but if I am strong enough I am willing to push for 60-70 days. Just trying to get to 50 first.
I fasted 20/4 for 3 months, lost 30 pounds. Have been losing tons of hair. Now only fast a few days a week and put back on 5 lbs. Would like to lose another 30. This video is motivating to get back to it. Thanks.
Great Prepping tool is to do a Parasite and Candida Cleanse (kill) ...these dudes Crave SWeeTs….this worked for me and I did Vegan Keto Foods for 7 Days prior to my Water Fast...it Helped A Lot!! I'm on Day 10 no hunger pangs at all! Love your channelÜ
I need to move because my family over indulges with food and constantly purchases my trigger foods even when I ask them not to. I know that I need to be in an environment that fosters a better eating habit and its not here.
Thank you, Thank you, This was more encouraging than many of those that give their testimony. Not professional enough. How to be secession is more encouraging from a teacher of the fast.
Yes Chris understanding the scale is the key. That’s how I learned about water fasting from watching your videos. And that’s one thing I learned from you understanding the scale.
I'm going to start fasting this Sunday 06/21/2021, for 21 days. I'm going to start with 16/8 and have watermelon and liquids. My liquids will be water, seafood stock, vegetable broth, or herbal tea. For dinner a sensible keto meal. Then I'll proceed to OMAD and water for another 21 days. Then I will ease back to 16/8 with liquids and watermelon for 7 days and then add a keto meal. Not only am I GOING to lose weight but I have lipedema in both legs and I'm hoping the detox will help elevate the swelling from Lipedeama the way it helped Kendice with her Lupus. Help me, Jesus.
Chris you have a really amazing way of connecting with people and wording things. It's a true talent to be able to do what you do. Their are plenty of fasting RUclips pages, but your's feels more like a community therapy channel!
Your channel has helped me for two fasts in the past, I hate to say it but here I am -BEHIND- square one, regressed to a state I never thought I’d reach again. This time, I have an after-care plan.
Totally connect with all your points aside from the statement of people in their 80s. We currently don't see obese in their 80s because they were born in the 1930s and have a different relationship with food. They don't eat all this fast food and factory produced food. They eat clean.
appreciate the info...was surprised how great I felt when I started intermittent fasting and the included water fasting...uses to believe I would be starving but the lack of hunger at times was surprising
Maybe all the walking is causing inflammation and water retention hun, please don't let that discourage you. Google the "woosh" effect, it will show you a picture of fat cells over say three days, slowly losing fat but holding water and then woooosh your body let's go of that water and you drop 6lbs. You've got this. Remember if you're not eating and walking, there's absolutely no way you're not losing fat, give your body time to adjust to the task at hand.
Thank you 🙌... I was so confused about the scale issue... and the heaven and hell concept, definitely a key... thank you again for all that your sharing with us
Thank you so much for your videos. They are not only educational, but encouraging as well. I love your positive energy; it’s infectious. Wishing everyone the best! #WeNeedEachOther ❤️🤗
topbossrenee When I saw Chris reply to you about 14 days water fast then 2 days off the light bulb turn on for me!!! I’m on my first round of 14 days and I have 3 days to end the 14 days and so far I have list 21lbs!! Good Luck!!!
A Healthy Alternative Thank you very much! I was thinking about eating watermelon, avocado, tomatoes and cucumbers mixed together?? On the second day a smoothie with spinach, blueberries and pineapple. Then start round 2 of my 14 day fast the next day! That’s the first thing that came into mind! Will that be okay to break my fast?
Ok, I need more info on two things you spoke of. First, gaining weight while fasting. This happened to me a few months ago (weighed-in on day 6 and was up TEN pounds). Totally baffled by that. Second, what's this about being able to eat fruit when diabetic?! Yep, I'm type 2, so this really intrigues me. I was addicted to (real) fruit juice, especially peach nectar, before becoming diabetic. Please explain.
Thank you so much for this I am starting my fasting Journey once again I know this definitely works😀 Back in 2018, I decided I wanted to look hot when my husband came back home from his Trucking on the road and you're commentary really help me . I went from a fully thick size 22 to a sizzling size 10-12 in 3 months. All with just simply not eating drinking water and going for walks. I'll admit it was difficult the first 3 days especially that I had to cook for my two boys 😣 but when I hit the 5th day it was no stopping me. I did gain a lot out of it by not eating red meat anymore but my main issue now since I don't eat red meat is that I recognize that I have replaced it with snacks and breads and I did end up gaining a good 25lb since then😞 but anyway just wanted to say thank you for making this video 😎 binge watching mode!!! PS will be sending you my pics from the last time I fasted and will be sending before and after pics of my upcoming success for this year 😎
Michelle W that’s awesome. I’m 5’3 weighing 230 pounds and I want to get to 130 pounds. Is it best to start the water fast tomorrow or on a Monday? And you don’t eat anything at all, not even something that’s low in calories?
Thank you for the encouragement. People have to make it a life time change to maintain the weight .go back to ur old eating habits u go back to your previous weight and more .you just have to choose
I've got all the aspects of the water fasting pretty much down and memorized. My only two questions is does it matter or more so what type of water is needed to be the most successful throughout this process and how does this work with medications certain people are required to take? I need this info to help someone in my family but, can't pinpoint those two aspects. If anyone has the answers or if Chris sees this alone that would be great. Thanks anyone who happens to stumble upon this. :)
Chris this eas was Really good information!! I've watched your channel for years and all are good. This one really hit home! Please keep the information coming. Many Blessings to all you do!
I have no problem fasting as far as missing food is concerned. My problem is the horrendous heartburn! Drinking apple cider vinegar and or lemon juice works short term but it comes right back.....I only lasted 8 days. Suggestions???
I do intermittent fasting, and now i dont have heartburn, or GERD. When i dont IF i have all kinds of heartburn problems. Before i did IF i took omeprazole for years.
Real talk bredren a change is imminent in my future with this weight. I'm tired of being called Biggs. Tired of people looking at me funny because of my weight. Yeah bro I appreciate your harshness
I have saved the two more dynamic fast for the last ones for me to do in this rotation the wet fast and the dry fast I know that both of them will work because I’ve done each accidentally and received good results currently one meal a day is where I’m at and I will use it for my health journey until I’m ready to do the last two
When I break my fast I eat whatever I want and however much I want... that is the beauty of fasting is that you can do that! Some times I eat a healthy steak and salad dinner... other nights like last night I went to buffalo wild wings and had a huge wing dinner with a big basket of fries and a huge dessert.... I eat until im full... then the fast starts again.... but I eat whatever the heck I want and the weight just drops off with the fasting.... you dont have to restrict yourself....
@@LivingtheLaptopLifestyle oh wow, okay. So you do 3 day fasts, eat whatever the next day, then go straight into another 3 day fast? I want to lose weight by doing an extended water fast, but I always cave in at the end of day 3. How much would you say you lose around in a month of doing that? (sorry for all the questions)
Water fasting has helped me but why can’t I go no more then 15 days I did it twice my goal was 21 or push to 30 but 15 days seems like I can’t get past it. What is that all about?
I needed this thanks 🥰🤗😘😔I mess up and my stomach go nuts. That put me back right the stomach pain. I only ate half a green apple and omfg my stomach going nuts. I binge ate before lol. Than I finally went into water. Now I'm like I dont want to go backwards it hurts. Your body controls everything and will show you. Larwd you dont want skip back! The physiological pressure there but not that bad. You just have to be consistent and straight up with your self. My journey is for 6 months. I just wanna see where it a take me. My first fast I did 3 months. When i set back i work out and just keep going now!

Hi! Did you lost all that weight in 20days?
I'm currently doing alternate day fasting with omad....so roughly 40 hour fast and eat one meal. In February I'm going to aim for 48 hrs and then 72 hrs fasting 🤞🏽
Hi! Did you loose weight ?
@@TheSamimakeup yes i lost 10 lbs in about a week
This info is amazing. Unfortunately I went crazy the night before i started my fast. But I will implement a plan for refeeding. This is awesome. Also not being able to breathe is one thing that happens to me when i gain too much weight. This last time was my last straw. I am determined. I’m on day three now!
How did it go for you?
Found your channel living here in mainland China. YES! Mental and physical prepping is essential. I eliminated bad foods: flour, white sugar, before my first 10 day.fast last year. Prep your mind. Deeply think about what you’re going to do before you start. I’m on my second 10 day fast. Cleaning out you colon, with herbal enemas - green tea or coffee, REALLY helped to killed my detox symptoms. A coffee enema wiped out my shaky weakness and flushed out accumulated crap.
Fasting to reduce inflammation. And chronic conditions
Glad I found this video! I did a 3day water fast the other day and I hopped on the scale & saw I was gaining and I was so annoyed n confused. Lol I was working out too...now I’m just focused on eating right not even gonna worry about the scale right now.
Yup just keep at it
The detox symptoms ain't no joke. I'm going to juice fast for 3-10days before I fast this time. And keep my water intake hella high as well.
Thanks Chris. On a side note is the little logo tree waving at us now ? 🤔😂
Its certainly is
LOL,....I just saw that too☺️
Today is day 4 for me. I am going to do 21 days. I will definitely have a plan for refeed.
Thanks for this video. I love the fasting lifestyle but I haven’t been constant for a few months. This video made me start my 3 day water fast.
Amazing 👍🏾
Your videos are literally my motivation thank you for uploading new content I’m on my journey can’t wait for 90 days to show my first transformation 😊
I'm happy to be a blessing
EAT TO LIVE 🍴 NOT LIVE TO EAT🍴OR DON’T EAT AT ALL & STILL LIVE A HEALTHY LIFE 🙏 THANK YOU FOR MOTIVATING ME!!!!
I took the 40 day wellness class. It’s amazing! It taught me life lessons not just to manage my weight but also my emotions that lead me to use food as a coping mechanism. Highly recommend trying the fasting academy if anyone is suffering from mentally breaking up with the American diet
Where did you find this 40 day wellness class if I may ask 🙂
@@LR-dh7pm A Healthy Alternative hosts classes. they have information on the channel
You're the best Rae, we gotta have you on the show at some point.

This might be one of my fav videos of yours. I've fasted a few times and have tried to get started again and can't build up the motivation. Your breakdown of how to approach fasting and coming up with a REAL action plan to my trouble areas is so simple but I wasn't writing down a plan and doing the work. And the heaven/ hell exercise will help me understand my true WHY for getting healthy. Thank you for all that you do.
This is an excellent video teaching. Especially worth listening Thru the whole thing to the “heaven & the hell” analogy. Having a solution does help being able to talk about this reality.
Thanks for continuing such high quality, timely information and help.
I really appreciate your videos. Thanks for living out one of your purposes.
😊😊
Chris you have inspired me so much! i fell off the wagon last year and a little over a week ago I decided to get back on track, I gained all my weight back and more, and i am feeling terrible, not just because of the weight but because like you said, i struggle to even tie my shoe laces! i have experience with water fast and I mentally prepared for a 21 day water fast. I have been watching your videos because i find so much motivation on them! this one just made me want to cry out of inspiration! thank you
I'm 75 hrs into my fast, i feel great and i have lost 7 lbs as of this morning!!
I'm happy I could be here to support u. Make sure to take advantage of that motivation and get started right away
@@AHealthyAlternative I totally am! ❤❤❤
Hope it went well.
Day 4 of my water fast down 5 pounds...
I've been doing the 5 days water fast for 3 months. lost about 30 lbs since January, but that feeling great and amazing level I have never reached. I constantly feel weak and lethargic and I prep and all, So what advice would you give me to help make it less Exhausting?
All this year I've been fasting. My longest fast was a dry fast of 16 days (no water and no food) but 2 months later I'm on day 10 of my water fast, I have 40 days left but if I am strong enough I am willing to push for 60-70 days. Just trying to get to 50 first.
How much did you lose on your dry fast
What do you mean dry fast
@@elviemcguire1292 no drinking of water or fluids. Some people don't bathe or brush their teeth either.
You’re marvelous as always and have help countless people including myself keep up the wonderful job
Thank you for ur support!!
A Healthy Alternative you’re very welcome
Being in Quarantine bought me here. Thanks for the knowledge, I now have work to do 💪🏽
This was an amazing video! We always hear about thinking about you whys. But the list of heaven and hell really is powerful!
I fasted 20/4 for 3 months, lost 30 pounds. Have been losing tons of hair. Now only fast a few days a week and put back on 5 lbs. Would like to lose another 30. This video is motivating to get back to it. Thanks.
Great Prepping tool is to do a Parasite and Candida Cleanse (kill) ...these dudes Crave SWeeTs….this worked for me and I did Vegan Keto Foods for 7 Days prior to my Water Fast...it Helped A Lot!! I'm on Day 10 no hunger pangs at all! Love your channelÜ
I water fast every other day the day when I eat my one meal a day it is healthy
I need to move because my family over indulges with food and constantly purchases my trigger foods even when I ask them not to. I know that I need to be in an environment that fosters a better eating habit and its not here.
Thank you, Thank you, This was more encouraging than many of those that give their testimony. Not professional enough. How to be secession is more encouraging from a teacher of the fast.
@11:30 So true" If you're fasting you're healing"
Yes Chris understanding the scale is the key. That’s how I learned about water fasting from watching your videos. And that’s one thing I learned from you understanding the scale.
😊💜 that made me feel really good
That was a really excellent video!!! Thank you so much!!! I'm scared to fast but I am inspired!! God bless you!!
Fear is good, that means you're about to do something that will help you grow
Yes this is the topic I needed. I appreciate it. Still working on this 90 pounds 😑 yes the refeed is the obstacle. The fasting is the easy part.
Mieka! I love your videos... You keep it so real and I'm coming to get my locs done one day.
@@santino_9711 I appreciate that Santino _ I look forward to meeting you and doing your locs ♥️
Yes, same here!
Thanks Chris and you’re glowing love it 😍
I'm going to start fasting this Sunday 06/21/2021, for 21 days. I'm going to start with 16/8 and have watermelon and liquids. My liquids will be water, seafood stock, vegetable broth, or herbal tea. For dinner a sensible keto meal. Then I'll proceed to OMAD and water for another 21 days. Then I will ease back to 16/8 with liquids and watermelon for 7 days and then add a keto meal. Not only am I GOING to lose weight but I have lipedema in both legs and I'm hoping the detox will help elevate the swelling from Lipedeama the way it helped Kendice with her Lupus. Help me, Jesus.
Chris you have a really amazing way of connecting with people and wording things. It's a true talent to be able to do what you do. Their are plenty of fasting RUclips pages, but your's feels more like a community therapy channel!
That really made me feel good! Thank you. I'm very happy we are connecting with you😊
Consistency and re feeds are my downfall
Your channel has helped me for two fasts in the past, I hate to say it but here I am -BEHIND- square one, regressed to a state I never thought I’d reach again. This time, I have an after-care plan.
Chris, These are so very difficult questions that we must ask ourselves
Totally connect with all your points aside from the statement of people in their 80s. We currently don't see obese in their 80s because they were born in the 1930s and have a different relationship with food. They don't eat all this fast food and factory produced food. They eat clean.
appreciate the info...was surprised how great I felt when I started intermittent fasting and the included water fasting...uses to believe I would be starving but the lack of hunger at times was surprising
Today is day 5 for me and I lost nothing 🙄 I walk 3 miles everyday too. My first fast, I lost 13 pounds in 3 days
Maybe all the walking is causing inflammation and water retention hun, please don't let that discourage you. Google the "woosh" effect, it will show you a picture of fat cells over say three days, slowly losing fat but holding water and then woooosh your body let's go of that water and you drop 6lbs. You've got this. Remember if you're not eating and walking, there's absolutely no way you're not losing fat, give your body time to adjust to the task at hand.
Because you're losing fat now your body is losing inches , I Guarantee your waist size got smaller and you lost fat in your face and stomach
Are you on a perimenopausal age?
Thank you Chris this really did help me out so much It made me look at it from a totally different point of view.😉💯
This is my first fast. I start tomorrow in the prep or super-fast stage. January 10th is the start date. .
Thank you 🙌... I was so confused about the scale issue... and the heaven and hell concept, definitely a key... thank you again for all that your sharing with us
Really appreciate your encouraging and succinct talk on mind set for fasting-thanks so so much!
Lol you had me cracking up!!! ‘We have these wonderful things called freezers.’
Thank you so much for your videos. They are not only educational, but encouraging as well. I love your positive energy; it’s infectious. Wishing everyone the best! #WeNeedEachOther ❤️🤗
I need to lose 100 pounds in 6 months .I weigh 243 how many days should I fast ?
100 days straight. Or 14 days straight with 2 days breaks in between
😆
topbossrenee When I saw Chris reply to you about 14 days water fast then 2 days off the light bulb turn on for me!!! I’m on my first round of 14 days and I have 3 days to end the 14 days and so far I have list 21lbs!! Good Luck!!!
Wow!! Go you, that's incredible. Do you I know exactly what you're planning to break your fast with?
A Healthy Alternative Thank you very much! I was thinking about eating watermelon, avocado, tomatoes and cucumbers mixed together?? On the second day a smoothie with spinach, blueberries and pineapple. Then start round 2 of my 14 day fast the next day! That’s the first thing that came into mind! Will that be okay to break my fast?
I completely agree most centennial are all slightly under weight or average weight. You was never see an 200-300lb
Ive lost 4 lbs in just 3 days of prep 🤗🤗🤗🤗
Ok, I need more info on two things you spoke of. First, gaining weight while fasting. This happened to me a few months ago (weighed-in on day 6 and was up TEN pounds). Totally baffled by that. Second, what's this about being able to eat fruit when diabetic?! Yep, I'm type 2, so this really intrigues me. I was addicted to (real) fruit juice, especially peach nectar, before becoming diabetic. Please explain.
I've shared your posts with several friends and they all love it. And plan on following your recomendations
I lost 30 doing 48 hrs every week exercise and eating right
What is it like to see, receive and have happiness beyond something that’s on a plate
Wow, wow.
Well it feels like like freedom of thought, freedom of expression and freedom of creativity. It's like what a bird experiences flying
Thank you so much for this I am starting my fasting Journey once again I know this definitely works😀 Back in 2018, I decided I wanted to look hot when my husband came back home from his Trucking on the road and you're commentary really help me . I went from a fully thick size 22 to a sizzling size 10-12 in 3 months. All with just simply not eating drinking water and going for walks. I'll admit it was difficult the first 3 days especially that I had to cook for my two boys 😣 but when I hit the 5th day it was no stopping me. I did gain a lot out of it by not eating red meat anymore but my main issue now since I don't eat red meat is that I recognize that I have replaced it with snacks and breads and I did end up gaining a good 25lb since then😞 but anyway just wanted to say thank you for making this video 😎 binge watching mode!!! PS will be sending you my pics from the last time I fasted and will be sending before and after pics of my upcoming success for this year 😎
Michelle W that’s awesome. I’m 5’3 weighing 230 pounds and I want to get to 130 pounds. Is it best to start the water fast tomorrow or on a Monday? And you don’t eat anything at all, not even something that’s low in calories?
I start tomorrow. I'm excited
Beautiful
Very GOOD information! Perfectly delivered! Thank you so very much for sharing!
well dave east is in a nice mood.
Thank you for the encouragement. People have to make it a life time change to maintain the weight .go back to ur old eating habits u go back to your previous weight and more .you just have to choose
I've got all the aspects of the water fasting pretty much down and memorized. My only two questions is does it matter or more so what type of water is needed to be the most successful throughout this process and how does this work with medications certain people are required to take? I need this info to help someone in my family but, can't pinpoint those two aspects. If anyone has the answers or if Chris sees this alone that would be great. Thanks anyone who happens to stumble upon this. :)
Chris this eas was Really good information!! I've watched your channel for years and all are good. This one really hit home! Please keep the information coming. Many Blessings to all you do!
I really wanted to add something extra to this video
I have no problem fasting as far as missing food is concerned. My problem is the horrendous heartburn! Drinking apple cider vinegar and or lemon juice works short term but it comes right back.....I only lasted 8 days. Suggestions???
Soccertz1 I want to encourage you to go watch the process of fasting Myles Munroe (Munroe Global)
Yes there are a couple herbal blends I've come across recently that have been working well. Email me for details ahealthyalternative2016@gmail.com
I do intermittent fasting, and now i dont have heartburn, or GERD. When i dont IF i have all kinds of heartburn problems. Before i did IF i took omeprazole for years.
Thanks for this video I have watched you for a couple years keep teaching us about fast is dry fasting better than water fasting
Water fasting is much safer for the body. Do your research to find what works for you.
Real talk bredren a change is imminent in my future with this weight. I'm tired of being called Biggs. Tired of people looking at me funny because of my weight. Yeah bro I appreciate your harshness
I got your back!
@@AHealthyAlternative respect family 💪🏾.
I have saved the two more dynamic fast for the last ones for me to do in this rotation the wet fast and the dry fast I know that both of them will work because I’ve done each accidentally and received good results currently one meal a day is where I’m at and I will use it for my health journey until I’m ready to do the last two
Amazing, you are an expert and are helping so many people in such a meaningful way.
When I break my fast I eat whatever I want and however much I want... that is the beauty of fasting is that you can do that! Some times I eat a healthy steak and salad dinner... other nights like last night I went to buffalo wild wings and had a huge wing dinner with a big basket of fries and a huge dessert.... I eat until im full... then the fast starts again.... but I eat whatever the heck I want and the weight just drops off with the fasting.... you dont have to restrict yourself....
How long do you usually fast for?
@@Blackheartinertia. 72 hours
@@LivingtheLaptopLifestyle oh wow, okay. So you do 3 day fasts, eat whatever the next day, then go straight into another 3 day fast? I want to lose weight by doing an extended water fast, but I always cave in at the end of day 3. How much would you say you lose around in a month of doing that? (sorry for all the questions)
Very inspiring video. Appreciate the tips. This was very very helpful
I enjoyed that Knowledge. Thanks
My pleasure
Great and powerful video! Thanks!!
Great video, super helpful!
Water fasting has helped me but why can’t I go no more then 15 days I did it twice my goal was 21 or push to 30 but 15 days seems like I can’t get past it. What is that all about?
I struggle with refeeding. Getting better but the struggle is hell.
I needed this thanks 🥰🤗😘😔I mess up and my stomach go nuts. That put me back right the stomach pain. I only ate half a green apple and omfg my stomach going nuts. I binge ate before lol. Than I finally went into water. Now I'm like I dont want to go backwards it hurts. Your body controls everything and will show you. Larwd you dont want skip back! The physiological pressure there but not that bad. You just have to be consistent and straight up with your self. My journey is for 6 months. I just wanna see where it a take me. My first fast I did 3 months. When i set back i work out and just keep going now!
