Yeah, keep goin' man!
I don't think I could do 5 days. You've got some control. 
Glad to hear all's well. Keep up the good work.

No smoking tobacco? How about cannabis?
Your thread has me interested in trying this now. Thanks.

Let the first step be one you believe in, and the second one might be profound.

Yeah thanks guys, the rewards of fasting make it worth it.

Ya im not smoking at all. After you get near the end of the fast you lose much of the desire for tobacco anyway because the chemicals which trigger the addiction are being flushed from the body. The same goes for junk food, caffeine, mcdonalds etc. However for the first birth you crave hard because those chemicals are in your blood stream before they exit the body.
This is why fasting is a great way to try to kick old habbits and start a better life style.

Nice man you tried it! 4 days that is not bad, that is what I did the first time I tried the seven day fast a few years ago. Hard to blame you about he tobacco, I was googling to see if I could get away with smoking but apparently its pretty dangerous considering your blood pressure and the fact you are light headed already.
Yeah, that's the main reason I stopped, but to stay in the spirit, I stayed only on low amounts of raw fruit and nuts/seeds to complete the week. I'm working on the tobacco habbit right now.
Cudos to you sir!

So that's why? I found it odd. Why would I crave junk food instead of something nutritious, it kept boggling me.

Hah interesting, your confusion is understandable. I'm still craving the junk food abit, I don't even care for burgers and last night while watch 'park and rec' (top notch comedy) the greasiest burger looked so damn appealing.
You should checkout the book 'Tao of Detox' it's packed full of information about detoxing, great read.
