I fasted for 3 to 4 weeks on numerous occasions but I was living in the mountains and did not have the 9 to 5 life etc. I talked about fasting to my cousin awhile back as he had put on about 40 unwanted pounds. I just saw him recently and he had lost the 40 lbs. He started doing it 1 day a week but said he switched to 3 days a week after having some good results. He does have some liquid soup in the evening.
There are 2 kinds of fast. One is just water and the other is on fruit/vegetable juices. I believe the fruit/vegetable juice is better as it provides some nutrients and minimal calories so you don't feel weak.
There are some good books on juice diets in the health food stores. I knew a doctor in Michigan who had bowel cancer. They said he was going to die within months. He happened to hear about fasting as a cure for cancer. Being a doctor he decided to try it and ended up curing the cancer.
While I believe in modern medicine if I got cancer the first thing I would do is go on a long fast while consulting with a physician.
