Methods Of Fasting To Tone And Lose Weight

By Deborah Singer


Many people are aware of the benefits of fasting to tone and lose weight. It allows you to drop those unwanted pounds, however, it does not mean that you will keep that weight off. It is important that you remain committed to your program and you should remain aware of your body throughout the process. This will stop you from regaining all the weight lost.

In order to change the effects the food you eat has had on your body, you have to change emotionally and mentally to reverse those effects. Fasting has been termed as a 'reset' button for your taste buds. Your body will be cleansed of impurities and chemicals, giving you the ability to truly taste the foods you eat. There are different types of methods you can choose from.

The type of fast you choose is dependent on your lifestyle, goals, body chemistry and health issues. You may choose one method today and find it appropriate, however, you may opt for a different one tomorrow. The dry method is also known as Hebrew Fast, Black Fast and Absolute Fast. This is the most extreme method of abstinence. It comes from a spiritual base and is undertaken by foregoing water and food for short periods of time. Although this method is not always the recommended first choice, it is an interesting choice.

When you choose a liquid fast, it means that you will only consume liquids for a stipulated time period. Water fasts are the simplest in this category. It offers you physical therapeutic advantages over a short period of time. This method initiates detoxification very rapidly. You should bear in mind that this method can be very restrictive for beginners to fasting.

One of the more popular liquid fasts is a juice diet. It is considered to be a pure, natural detox method. The Master Cleanse and the Lemonade diets fall into this category and have gained popularity over the last few years. These diets obtain calories from the maple syrup which is part of the diet. It offers exceptional intestinal cleansing benefits.

You can opt for a partial method whereby you include some solid foods in the diet. The amount of food you eat is not the important facet of this diet. Excluding or limiting certain types of food is what makes it a partial method. Diets such as rice diets are considered to be partial fasts.

The amount of time you offer up for the diet is an important aspect. The popularity of three day fasts is because it can be achieved over one weekend. Newcomers to these forms of abstinence should consider starting with a one-day fast. This will allow you to determine the changes that take place during the diet period. The total period allocated to abstinence should include the initial transition from eating a normal diet. The time that you take to slowly return to a normal daily diet should also be included in the time assessment.

Fasting offers you the opportunity to lose weight in a healthy way. If you hope to tone your body after the weight loss, you will be required to do suitable exercises to achieve your goal. It may not be possible for you to do the exercises during the period of abstinence, but this is dependent on how you react to the overall process.
