Answer
Iβve been doing Monday Fastdays for the past couple weeks and I feel great doing it. So far Iβm about 24hrs in, will probably break the fast around the 48hr mark or so. I do OMAD Tues-Thurs and then I like to go a little wild in the weekends. So the Monday fasts are helpful after a weekend feast. But this past week I definitely went a little wild.
Answer
Fasting feels like a cheat code. I made it to 35 hours, but I wish I could have went longer and pushed through the morning. Itβs incredibly hard to get sleep(increased my fluids and didnβt have any luck).
