    Are you taking any supplements with it? I heard that you can get pretty sick doing a just water fast without any vitamins for an extended amount of time.

    Taking supplements would not be fasting. And taking supplements during a fast is not necessary. It's helpful to have a lead in diet, for a few days before the fast, with a lot of micro-nutrient rich food.

    I have actually always wanted to try this but I'm scared to because I have a baby and I need to have energy for her. Think it's possible? If anyone has any input on my situation I would love to hear it because I really really want to. Juice fasting was incredible for me! Good luck on it OP!

    You should not be "water fasting" for weight loss.

    I only do it when I'm doing a cut. Or bored. Or lonely.

    ^This. It also says you have an 18 month child. How long are you doing this and are you being monitored by a doctor?

    I water fast quite often, as least once a week.

    ... For about three hours. Then it's eating time!

    Water weighs a pound per pint. Don't drink it, you'll gain weight.

    I think I might be doing it wrong. Maybe the OP has some advice for me.

    I dont think it is advisable for more than 1/2 day or 1 day. I have been never into fasting but people at my place do these for religious reasons and I researched into it, and I came to know occasional fasting is good for you. Might be one of reason is we eat spicy food at other times and the occasional cleanse is good for u.May be once or twice a month, not more than that.

    The only thing your are doing with this is flushing out minerals and vitamins out of your body, and starving yourself for no reason..

    Or. You could just eat food and not do a pointless water fast.
