30 Day Fast: Day One, Part 1

Hello my name is Darris and I've decided to start this blog to document my process of changing my eating habits, cleansing my body, and losing weight In 30 days. I shall consume only water, green tea, and only when needed, supplemental vitamins and minerals.

Day One:
I was going to start this fast yesterday, but put in a room full of my favorite foods, I collapsed under the pressure of desire. I tried so hard to fight it off,but in the back of my head I keep saying just eat a little. A little turned out to be 2 bowls of beans and rice, with 1 and a half pork chops, the very thought of it is making me want more. So today is the day that a buckle down, and drink up....water that is.

My fast know as a Water Fast, feature many health benefits, however my primary goal is to lose weight, cause lets face it at 340 lbs, I really need to lose weight. My secondary goal is to change my lifestyle. I've always had strong beliefs in food, but at this size I find it hard to back them up. Though i don't seek a book publication or anything, it would be nice to tell people of better ways, without them looking at me and saying"Walk the Talk".

The Medical Benefits Includes detoxification, increase in growth hormones(for height), increase in anti agents, and the resting of the digestive tract.

Side Effects, death, nausea, dizziness, drops in energy, and bad breath and body odor do to the lack glucose going to the brain, the lack of nutrients and electrolytes, and the excruciation of toxins.

To circumvent these obstacles and reach the benefits, I am going to drink Green tea, with no sugar, gaining all the benefits of drinking Green Tea. Along with that I will be taking supplements(salt tablets-for electrolytes, and daily vitamins pills) to insure I don't have extreme drops in my bodies chemical balance, and of course brushing my teeth allot more, and taking more than the usual bath. If all else fail, I will refrain from my fasting, and try again at a later date.
