Progress Report ID-8907 by Wiez

• 

• Hilary 29 years old female, weighing 63 kg / 138.6 lbs, 72 in /182.88 cm tall, From Cincinnati, United States US

• Doing 30 days of Juice Fasting. Starting June 23, 2011

• Reasons for Fasting:
  I want to cure my lichen planus and steroid acne. I also tend to binge on sugar and refined carbs occasionally so I would like to break that habit.

• Past Fasting Experience:
  I have done 24 hour water fasts in the past. I've also done raw till supper for awhile.

• Present Diet:
  Before starting the fast I was mostly raw with a cooked dinner. I tried to be as healthy as possible. The week before the fast I had actually slipped up out of frustration/depression that I wasn't getting better. So I was drinking a cup of coffee a day and not eating as healthy as I should. I've been a vegetarian for about two months now.

• Supplements:
  I took a range of vitamin supplements before the fast, but I'm not supplementing anything during the fast.

• Present Medication or Drug Usage:
  I'm taking 100mg of docycyline twice a day. I have two more weeks left of the prescription so I'm going to finish it. I've been on it for six weeks, though, with little improvement to my face.

• State of Mind:
  Optimistic. I feel happier than I have in awhile. I feel hopeful that this may actually heal me. I feel as though I've tried everything else so this HAS to work.

• Limitations:
  I am a stay at home mom with two young children. Though I don't feel like I have any limitations. That is actually a help because I can make juice whenever I need it and rest when I need to.

• Questions:
  I posted this in another post before I saw how to make a progress report, but so far this hasn't been too difficult. The first day was rough but after that I have felt fine. I enjoy moments of pure happiness and the rest of the time I feel balanced and good. Is it normal not to have many symptoms of detoxification? My tongue has been coated and other than a feeling a little light headed here and there I haven't had any symptoms. Hunger pains are not even that bad and I have to deal with food for the three meals a day I make my family.
