• Tammy Lewis, 49 years old female, weighing 91 kg / 200.2 lbs, 51 in /129.54 cm tall, Christian. From Amarillo, United States US

• Doing 40 days of Water Fasting. Starting March 1, 2011

• Reasons for Fasting:
  I'm fasting for a spiritual breakthrough. I also have plenty of excess body fat to get rid. Already dropped 20 lbs in the 10 days I've been fasting.

• Past Fasting Experience:
  I have never done a water fast more than 3 days. I have done a cleansing diet using fiber shakes for 21 days. I have been doing partial fasting for a couple months by having only a protien shake for breakfast and lunch and eating sensible for my evening meal. Avoiding all sugar and strictly limiting carbs.

• Present Diet:
  Water fast. I am using peppermint tea sweetened with Stevia to help with the recent nausea.

• Supplements:
  Usually a good multivitamin, dhea, progesterone, fish oil, grape seed extract

• Relevant Medical History:
  Obesity, Had a recent scare with the heart which after testing was a sensitive valve. Told to avoid cigarette smoke and the likes. Triglycerides and cholesterol are over 200 diagnosed with asthma last summer and allergy issues. Not taking any prescriptions for anything as I believe a healthy diet will take care of most of the problems.

• Present Medication or Drug Usage:
  No Rx meds - OTC for allergies, but limited since it affects the asthma, otherwise only vitamins and supplements

• State of Mind:
  Able to continue working. Still have some nausea and hunger pangs. Feel tired most of the time.

• Limitations:
  Only me

• Questions:
  I did an enema three days ago with the expectation that it would squelch some hunger pangs. I did pass some fecal matter but also something that looked like muscle or tissue is that normal?
