Fasting makes you hangry

So I posted recently about being stuck, feeling a bit frustrated and came here hoping for some words of encouragement and support. Do you know what I received? Attacks, judgement and a lot of assumptions. What the hell is wrong with people in this group? Does it rock your socks to put people down? Make you feel better? I would suggest stepping down from the pedestal and perhaps not say anything if it isn't helpful.

Answer

I’m sorry that you had to go through that. This subreddit has been very inspirational and supportive for me, and I’d hate for you to write it off because of some bad apples.

If it makes you feel any better, fasting definitely makes you hungry. At least for the first few days. That’s been my experience at least.

Answer

This is really disheartening to hear coming from a community that’s supposed to be supportive.

I’ve had friends/family/colleagues mock me saying that I was purposefully starving myself and I expected that criticism — we really gotta start being more constructive with feedback and cancelling out these negative comments.

Everyone’s journey is different — but we all walk on different paths not too far from each other!
