• Doing 10 days of Water Fasting. Starting March 6, 2011

• Reasons for Fasting:
  I am fasting for 3 main reasons: 1) I am overweight and unhappy with my body image as it exists today. To prepare for my fast I have been exercising (yoga and elliptical) steadily since December and working on rehashing my diet towards a much more whole food style of eating. 2) I am looking to detoxify my body from years of abuse. I am an ex-pop-addict (drinking at least 2 litres a day) ex-junk-food-addict (often consuming as much as 5000 calories a day) and ex-drug-abuser (using cocaine, heroin, amphetamines and other substances) 3) I am trying to reinvent myself right now and i believe the focus and discipline a fast requires will help me to achieve my goals in this area as well.
