    because relying on testimonials doesn't eliminate the obvious placebo effect and certainly doesn't account for the actual health risks involved

    bad move. the fasting slows down your metabolism, meaning that once you go back to your old habits then you'll gain even more weight.

    this def seems to make sense. im real curious how your body reacts here over next 10 days bukowski, coming out of it and back to "normal".

    Generally it seems people put an average of 5 lbs back on after doing it. It is obv a good idea to kick the old habbits and get on a balance diet w/ reg exersise.

    So 7 lbs net loss per try.... might take a few tries to get to my target weight but this seems better then walking on a treadmill!

    ship it
