Comments: I just made an interesting discovery this week. By simply re-scheduling my first feeding period to 2:00 pm, I've given myself a more flexible eating option of either 2mad or 0mad, and either a 36 hour fast, 42 hour fast, or a 48 hour fast. This week I've been able to do 3 rolling 48 hour fasts, and so far, I don't feel any hunger or discomfort. I have also upped my hydration to 3-4 liters per day which also helped break a two week stall. 📷

Great job!! Keep it up and keep us posted!
I have been searching for a home cholesterol kit for awhile now. How do you like the one you are using? Does it give detailed reading for the different types of Cholesterol?
