    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.

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

    Yep. You definitely have a drinking problem. That's classic problem drinking right there.

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

    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.

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

    No thanks, that sounds like a huge waste of time. If i were to spend an hour completely explaining it, provide peer reviewed medical studies, and show examples of people who have improved their lives through water fasting, it still wouldn't change your opinion. You didn't come in here to be enlightened, and we both know it.

    ^^nice. Promoting starvation while having an 18 month old child to look after. You should be ashamed of yourself. You have no idea what 'research' the OP had done and did not even deign to get any facts whatsoever, yet you encouraged it. Shame on you.

    Oh my god. Please don't listen to your marine buddy. Seriously. He has no idea what he is talking about. You need to talk to a doctor and a registered dietitian before you even attempt something like this. Bad. Idea.
