| | Water Fasting

Advice I wish I would have taken more seriously during fasting:

Never trust a fart. Seriously if you are fasting and consuming snake juice, for the love of God if you feel like you have to fart be sure you’re sitting on a toilet. Good luck and God speed.

Answer

I don’t have a gallbladder and I feel like this is even worse for me. I can’t trust a fart and I always have diarrhea on a fast until I’m empty. Then when I’m empty I can sometimes encounter random watery escapes with no warning whatsoever. For this reason I stopped going past 72 hours. I use my eating window to put something inside to block the bile stream.
