    You don't like food, I can't fall for that one. Everybody loves an enjoyable, tasty meal. Fasting isn't against healthy food - it's pointing at another goal.

    I'm very much of the Orson Wells school of thought when it comes to fasting and diet:

    Seriously I have never intentionally fasted, I have been Ill and not eaten.

    Maybe someone could tell me, If you go on a fast to lose weight, don't you kust put it straight back on again when you start eating?

    Yes, fasting will definitely affect your physical, earthly form. That green substance meant your body was indeed cleansing itself and now functioning on a higher level. Nothing to be alarmed about.

    You will put back even more. When you fast, your metabolism slow down. Also, your body will burn muscle instead of fat for fuel. Once you start eating again, you body will store extra fat to prepare for next fast. At the end, it will get worse than before

    I can never those green stuff came out from my body because it smell so bad. Like you put two pound of dead fish and let them rotten for a few weeks

    I fasted for three days but gave in to hunger after that. Never attempted it again because it was too torturous.
