Going for a 14 day fast. About 24 hours in and am seeing posts about snake juice and electrolytes. What is it? And when should I start taking it? I’ve done fasts before without it and it was bad wondering...
Hello! First post here, having done OMAD since Jan 1 and I absolutely have found my thing after failing to keep weight off long term, I feel so much more energised and clear minded. I'm a 32F, 5'9, current weight...
Hey everyone! The maximum I have ever done is a 7 day water fast. I did my research here on this sub wayyy back and read that to go any longer, salts are necessary. I’m planning a 14 day fast and thought...
Hi, I'd like to start a 14 day fast tomorrow. I've done 2-5 day fasts before so I have an idea what to expect. I live with just my mom and often have broken extended fasts because she cooked dinner...
Hi Amazing people, I hope you are doing well. Male. 33YO. 5ft11in. 121 KG. I’m starting my 14 day fast today. Earlier I did fasting for 3 days, 7 days, 9 days (was planned to do 14 but failed) I think I...
(M/20) So, I've done intermittent fast before and even managed a 3-day fast once. How do I go about a 14 day fast? Is it unsafe? If I'm so energy zapped I can't get out of bed (luckily staying in...
I primarily drank water (@ least 2L daily w/ LMNT electrolytes), had black coffee a few days, and green tea twice. My sleep was atrocious Day 7-10 so I started taking L-Theanine (400mg) which helped a lot! Overall I lost...
I'd been lurking on this sub for many months and tried my hand at intermittent fasting + keto with lots of success in the past, but my insulin resistance made it so that what little progress I made I would...
Hi guys, day 11 now. Definitely deep in this fast... I'm running cold all the time, and I also live in Canada, so yeah... You'll likely find me these days having another hot bath or under my heated blanket. I find...
So I lasted 14 days no problem but my goal was 30. I was hungry my biggest issue was motivation. I had no motivation to do anything . Anyone have any tips ? I'm just starting another 14 days again...
Day 9 of my fast...5 more days to go. I'm going to be honest. I'll probably go longer. You only get so few opportunities to successfully do an extended fast. If my body is okay on day 14, it'll just be another...
Well, almost at day 8, so I'm over halfway there. My body has settled into its fasting rhythm. As my period is now over, the bloat and hunger have both disappeared. I can tell I'm deep into the fast, as my movements...
Heya fasters, So past the 90th hour. I feel nice. I think the worst of the hunger is over. I donate monthly to my local food bank. It's an auto debit out of my credit card every month. Yesterday I made an...

Here once again. Last year did an awesome 15 and 21 days with 1 week inbetween, losing 20kg(44lbs) and gaining it all back *sigh*... Mainly creating this so I keep a log and accountability to myself as I noticed I tend...
Day 14 update: last Weigh in-218 starting - 234 lost - 16 Now I'm not going to lie: I overexerted Myself on (about) day 11 and for the last few days have been out of Comission. As one who Pushes Caution. I've decided to...
This will be my only extended fast for the remainder of the year. ETA: I created a discord for encouragement and accountability purposes https://discord.gg/FnpxkQV9

I broke my 14 day water fast today, however I'm planning to get back to it maybe on Wednesday. Is it too soon? Are there any reasons why I shouldn't get back so quickly after a 14 day fast?

People are starting to notice me “shrinking” which is reassuring because it means there actually is fat loss happening. I do tend to lose weight on my face quite quickly and dramatically though. So that could be part of it....
Happy holidays everyone! Today at my weigh-in I finally dipped into my goal weight range (a 5lb range to account for variance). I haven't seen this weight for over a decade! And I now fit comfortably into my goal weight...
