Lemon water.

I'm on day 8 of my 21 water fast and I think I may have made a mistake, I squeezed 1 whole fresh lemon and added it to about 8oz of water. Will this have broke my fast? The reason I did this was because I was under the impression that this would be ok to further myself into detoxing while water fasting, been watching alot of videos and I must have got this mixed up. But i want your opinions and suggestions on this. Should I continue fasting?

Answer

I did a little bit or looking around and it doesn’t seem like lemon water would affect you fast at all. Im actually restarting my 21 day water fast. I was on day 2 earlier today but I had to go to a work dinner. There’s nothing on the horizon for the next few weeks so im good to go. Any advice for me and my first long-term fast? How much weight have you lost so far? How do you feel throughout the day on average? Thanks for the help man! Best of luck!

Im Male, 22, 5’11” and 220 (goal 180)
