Question regarding the meat fast.
I've gotten so tired of the water retention I have been
unable to rid myself of that I have decided to do the meat fast for a few days starting this Saturday in the hopes it will rid my body of some excess fluids. http://www.angelfire.com/ca2/LowcarbingDream/meat.html I have one question regarding the fast. I am guessing that fish is not allowed on the fast or could I eat some while doing the fast? |

Question regarding the meat fast.
I checked out the website and Kali doesn'y say anything about what kind of
meat, except for bacon and the like. So it would seem to me that all meat be it beef, pork, chicken, or fish is acceptable. Or invent the Jamie-style meat fast, for those who like fish!

Michelle 207/199.5/140 I was thinking that while having a shower this morning because I really enjoy my salmon, boston bluefish, mackerel, ocean perch and sardines and tuna and would hate to give those up even for a few days. Okay since most fish is 0 carbs anyway I will incorporate them into a meat/fish version of a meat fast. |

Question regarding the meat fast.
JMO, but I think as long as you are not adding too much salt, fish works for
this. I tend to retain water very easily when I eat too much salt & I notice that a couple of days of eating too much salt sort of "resets" my taste buds to want even more salt. What I do when I am water-bloaty is to drink a lot of black coffee in the am, water all day and a couple of glasses of wine in the evening while eating completely unsalted food. I mean NO salt -- as in a plain hardboiled egg for breakfast, salad with nothing but olive oil for lunch and and broiled meat & salad for dinner. No salt, nothing processed at all, no cheese, no mayo, nothing that can have salt hidden in it. And it always works, after a day (2 at most) my shoes fit right againRobyn |

I hope you're aware that no amount of fighting water retention will ever succeed more than a few days. Folks can fight water retention sucessfully for a week, maybe for two. Beyond that fighting water is like fighting the tides. No matter how much effort you put in there isn't much difference in results averaged over a long enough period of time. For actual tides its several days. For human water retention tides its several weeks. It is *far* better to learn what your water swing is and ignore any weighing in that range than it is to doom yourself to an eternal battle that is a guaranteed loser. http://www.angelfire.com/ca2/LowcarbingDream/meat.html I have one question regarding the fast. I am guessing that fish is not allowed on the fast or could I eat some while doing the fast? Meat is anything cut from an animal, so fish is meat. But I get the impression these folks mean stuff that's zero carbs. Molluscs are around 1.0 gram per ounce and crustaceans are around 0.1 gram per ounce, so that seems to suggest that the meat fast includes fin fish. |
