Fasting To Tone And Lose Weight Naturally

By Deborah Singer


Making use of fasting to tone and lose weight is a good idea. The process will allow you to get rid of unwanted weight, but it does not mean that it will not come back. You must become aware of how abstinence affects your body and stay committed to be successful. This will ensure that the weight does not creep back.

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 method you choose will depend on your goals, lifestyle, health problems and body chemistry. You may start with one method today and find that it is not suitable tomorrow. The first method is the dry fast, which is also known as Absolute Fast, Hebrew Fast and Black Fast. This is the most extreme of all the methods. It has spirituality as its base and is done by abstaining from food and water for very short time periods. This is a very interesting choice of fast, but is very rarely recommended for newcomers.

Liquid fasts involve only drinking liquids for a certain time period. The simplest liquid fast is drinking water. It offers you a high therapeutic benefit from a physical point of view, in the shortest time period. Detoxification occurs extremely quickly with this method. However, if you are a beginner to this type of diet, you may find this extremely restrictive.

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.

An alternate method of abstinence is a partial method when some solid foods are still included in the diet. This diet is not dependent upon the quantity of food you eat. Limiting or excluding specific food types is what places it in this category. Partial fasts include particular diets, such as the rice diet.

An important factor of the fast is the time you allocate to it. Popular time periods include the three-day fast as it can quite easily be achieved over a weekend. Beginners should consider starting with a one-day fast. This provides you with insight into your body's reaction to this type of diet. The overall fast period should take into account the initial period during which you are changing your normal diet. The transition period when you slowly return to your normal diet should also be accounted for.

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.
