3 day fast anyone?

Answer

I started one last night! It’s been a while for me - I tend to get a headache or feel a touch off, freak myself out about it and bail, so rarely go past 48 hrs. But I am determined to do 72 this time around.

Answer

I’ve been meaning to start fasting for a long time now, but I’ve never taken the plunge. That stops now.

I will join your three-day fast and I will drink plenty of water along the way. BOOK IT!

EDIT: mere hours after posting this I broke down and got a Jimmy John’s. But the journey starts TOMORROW! BOOK IT!

Answer

I started almost 20 hours ago!

Planning for three days. I want to do three of these and do a blood test to check to see if my ANA autoantibodies are still there. I drink warm water throughout the day and black coffee in the morning.

Good luck to you and all your goals too!

Answer

1. Electrolytes (although you should be okay for 36 hours), but its a good habit to start.
2. Unlimited water, iced tea (black or green)
3. keeping yourself busy (physically and mentally) e.g exercise, a long walk, streaming a great new series, reading a book
4. Camaraderie

Answer

I started my 72 on Sunday and will break it on Wednesday evening. This is my 2nd one since I started fasting beyond the daily 20fast and my alternating 48fast. I’m modifying to a 72 hr weekly and the remainder of the week is a 20/22 hr OMAD until I hit my goal weight. Fasting is great and fairly simple as long as you remain disciplined and you can tweak it modify it to suit your needs.
