I really would like to embark on a 40 day water fast for weight loss and to detox. After wards I plan on switching to a raw vegan diet. Given the fact that I am changing my eating habits, is water fasting an effective weight loss method?
I would like to lose at least 40 pounds I currently weight 130 and am 5′1.
While on my fast I plan to go on an hour long walk everyday.

I’ve been on an AWESOME fitness program for the past 11 weeks. I’ve been eating right and exercising according to the guidelines laid out by a fitness expert and the results have been AMAZING. My bodyfat percentages have dropped and I’ve gained quite a bit of muscle–I haven’t lost a ton of weight ‘pound-wise’ (since muscle is denser than fat), but I’m closer to seeing a 6-pack than I’ve EVER been… I’m just wondering, though, where does it all go? I’m sure some of it at first was water weight…but what about the rest? Anyone have any stats in terms of how the fat leaves the body? Ideally, someone would know ‘##% into energy, ##% through urine/sweat, ##% through solid waste…etc.” Any good info? (please provide sources…I can make up #s myself. *smile*) Thanks!

I need to lose as much weight as possible in one week – I don’t care about the after effects, “it’s just water weight” or the fact that it’s bad for you. (I know all that.)
What is the most ideal way to just shed pounds suddenly?
