Answer
Very exciting day for me. Just hit Onederland! Was doing keto M-F, couldnβt push through a stall around 210, hung out there for a few months, then I started my fasting journey a couple months ago. Finally pushed through. I started crying in the shower after I weighed in. Canβt believe I finally did it. 5β6 M, 34yo CW:199, SW:269

Got a little worried last night. After I drank some electrolytes, then cardamon tea an hour later, I threw up. Literally never threw up during a fast before, so naturally I thought something was wrong and was fully prepared to break my fast this morning.
Thankfully however, Iβm feeling good now and I guess Iβm just not going to drink anymore tea, lol. Would have been absolutely heart breaking to have to break it with just 10 days left. But am happy to report that Iβm on day 23 of 33 and still going strong!
