You could pretty easily lose 2-3 lbs a week. If you want to set a date for March 15 you can say say you want to have lost at least 10 lbs. and I only have a week or so to get my abs rockin cuz Tobias and I got a competition goin @@
Hell probably win, ive never had abs but maybe thisll get a good jump start goin. I plan on getting to about 6% body fat for that day :) should rock pretty hard |

i fast, i work out and run 7 miles a day :p I dunno if thats easy
edit: and it takes the human body 1lb of fat per day to run once you go int ketosis. It isnt just a me thing. |

Could that be potentially damaging, though? |
|

depends. a 3-5 day fast is nothing. The human body can sustain a 40 day fast before it dies :p
Ive done a lot of 3 day fasts. If you read any medical stuff and/or fasting books they talk about what is happening. Just keep hydrated and dont work out/exercise and youll be fine.
And trust me, most people will absolutely not have the will power to do this, so :D |

| How long does it take to go into ketosis? |
|

| for women it happens on day 2, men day 3. This is on a water only fast. Ketones are the by product, or "ash", from fat being metabolized in the body. You can get glucose test strips from any pharmacy because normally its something diabetics use. |

their called Ketostix
