I'm on a water fast right now and I'm at day 4 going on 5. You do loose weight, but you have to be aware of what your body is telling you and to stop when enough is enough.

The best way to do it is not extend the fast past a week without supervision, 10 days at the most. Then you can break the fast carefully, return to eating solid foods after a few days, and then after a nice length break, you can do another 7 day fast. After breaking the fast in the correct way, the only way you won't regain your old weight is if you realize that now the body can process your food better (more efficient.. slower metabolism) and your stomach is smaller, so it needs less. If you go back to eating the normal amount that brought you to this current weight, you'll be right back up there. Do some research before you listen to uneducated people. Your body won't die unless you go into starvation, and that's after it's gone through autolysis, which is the process where your body turns to unnecessary fat cells, bacteria, tumors, ect., for fuel. It's dangerous when your body has no extra fuel left. Since it can detoxify you and give your digestive system a rest, eating up all the destructive things in your body, fasting is frequently looked at as a healing process.

On average you can expect to loose at least 1 pound a day, but it differs for people. If you weigh more, you're likely to loose more quickly.

Do research, be careful, and make sure you're doing it for the right reasons, which is health.

Good luck.

You will lose tons of weight. You will also die.

Water fasts are extremely dangerous. I beg you - please don't do this.

If you go on a water fast, it completely confuses your body. You run the risk of water toxicity (where the saline in your blood becomes too diluted and causes your organs to fail). You will also not consume enough calories which will make you weak and even nauseous.

If anything, you should fast from certain foods that are bad for you - sweets, junk food, fried food, etc. Replace those with really good fresh fruit and veggies instead.

You're not gonna be able to do it, you'll cop out the first day. If you do it then you will probably lose 15-30 pounds :)

You wouldn't even have the fortitude to do it for TWO days, much less a month...

Um. . .A LOT of weight!!! You shouldn't just drink water, you need protein and fiber, because if you just drink water for a month, your body doesn't get the nutrients it needs

well, you could loose about 30Ibs!......and die! dont do it.

is that possible... i love food, you should also. try a different diet.

Well.. the bigger question is will you LIVE to see the end of the 30 days!

Sounds terribly dangerous, unhealthy, and STUPID! Our bodies need FOOD for energy. You will loose muscle mass MORE than FAT because you will shock your body into STARVATION MODE. This is NOT a good idea!
