I would worry about the persons who would be so cruel as to set up a Bar-B-Q across the street. That would be cruel and inhuman. I only wish I lived nearby so I could be the one to start the coals. Alas, I live on the right coast!

And they don’t even know how to do it correctly.

You could have stopped there. That is a factual as you need to get.

“We’re protesting your protest, but we’re not stupid enough to fast.”

because your body is going to begin digesting muscle tissue to maintain minimal protein consumption to do its daily work of rebuilding all of its systems

Yeah… Right there is a deal breaker for me…

I have fasted for spiritual and political reasons many times during my adult life.
The last thing one should do before beginning a fast is eat a “carbohydrate rich” meal.

Why ? Because it causes a dramatic rise in blood sugar levels. Then after the crash, if you are still awake, you want to eat…..sugars to be exact. The body craves it
to kick start the metabolism, so it craves some “hair of the dog.” Might explain why Cindy SheBiscuit was living on J*mba Juice during her last one.

Want to do it right? And lose weight? Increase your protein consumption to nearly 1g per pound of total body weight. Makes your highly evolved metabolism signal the brain “Not starving. Getting enough protein. Do not store fat.” Increase protein consumption for at least a week before you stop eating. Then during that week, replace 2 of the 8 small meals you eat in a day (1800-2000 calories total if not exercising), with 64 ounces of lemon water (2 lemons squeezed into filtered water).

During the fast, consume 2 gallons of water daily because your body is going to begin digesting muscle tissue to maintain minimal protein consumption to do its daily work of rebuilding all of its systems. And water flushes the kidneys which can get toxically overloaded during a starvation cycle. Avoid fruit and vegetable juices. These will trigger unregulated bowel release and deplete your electrolyte and minerals too quickly.

Four days without solid food, or any food for that matter, can be good for you if you know what you are doing. Out here we fast in lodges for four days without food or water and benefit spiritually, mentally, and physically from it. But this involves some very skillful care from elders and special people among us who protect us from harm. We do it once a year. But we don’t do it for political reasons or to build our resumes.

What Code Winkee is doing is tantamount to saying they are going to hold their breath until Bush is impeached.

I hope they let us know how that’s working for them.
