How Not To Gain Weight After A Fast, Ep131

Last week I received quite a few emails from people asking me how not to gain the weight back that they lost from doing a fast or a juice feast. I’ve also been hosting a 10 Day Juice Fast (click here to sign up for the next one!!), and this topic also came up in discussion at the beginning of the fast. I know that many people run into the delema of gaining the weight back after a fast– mostly because they don’t break the fast gradually, and may even eat some heavily processed foods that their body isn’t ready to digest– we’ve all heard the stories out there of people breaking water fast with pizza– how terrible is that!!!

So, if you plan to do a fast or juice feast, you must be prepared on how you are going to break the fast and what type of diet you are going to take on afterwards. If you plan to continue gaining benefits from the fast and see it as a jump start to your long term healthy lifestyle, I am confident you will make the right dietary decisions and the weight won’t come piling back on. In fact I know many people that actually continued to lose weight after fasting!!!

But if you are the type of person that has strong patterns of binge eating and going to the extreme with food– I wouldn’t suggest doing fasts, instead I would suggest you concentrate on improving your existing diet and continue working on that.

    Just brilliant, brilliant and more brilliant as usual!!
    Well done Natasha. This is exactly the same conclusion I came to after my first juice feast. The second juice now I am doing it differently and after 3 days of straight juice I am doing a liter of green juice a day and really focusing on getting rid of my not so great food habits. Long term success is what I am after now, since I loved my first fast so much.
    Thanks for this great show!!!
