If you decide to fast just to lose weight it is very important to read up on how to prepare for the fast and how to prepare to start eating again. It is easy to lose weight fasting, but you have to be very careful when you begin eating again, or you could gain more weight then you had to begin with.

What is usually recommended is very slowly introducing foods back into your diet after fasting... and you usually want to start with very easy to digest foods, like fruit. Then add small amounts of veggies, then tiny amounts of rice or wheat, then protein and so on. Depending on how long your fast is, it should take about half the time of the fast to be eating regularly again...

Fasting is also a very easy way to change your diet. If you are unhappy with how you're eating, water or juice fasting is an easy way to start over with what you put in your mouth. Which also helps with lifestyle change to maintain your new weight.

Long story short, please research and read a lot about fasting before you start doing it. "Googling" water fast or juice fast is a very easy way to find information and books about fasting.

PS. Other things will definitely improve during a fast. Your digestive system will be very efficient after fasting, and most toxins in your body will be released. You should also notice your mind clearing and small ailments clearing up.
