36 hours into my Fast

[Pushbutton2]

I ate at 6am, snacked at 7am, 8am, 9am and just ate 2 packs of peanuts at 10am. Lunch can't get here quick enough!

You need to eat more!!
You could hide behind a blade of Bahia grass :-)

I used to be that way ..

I try to fast for 12-18 hours when I get blood work done......it kills me. My stomach is thinking my throats been cut at 12hrs. I try to sleep for most of the 12hrs.

I work with a guy (an older guy) that did a 40 day fast (religious reasons). All he had was water, a certain kind of tea, and I think some black coffee. He made the 40 days, but got extremely sick when he tried to start eating again. He ended up spending 3-4 days in the hospital getting his internals lined back out. He lost a lot of weight. He was a bit over weight to being with.

There are some studies that point toward it having anti-cancer effects. I am looking into it now and may consider it. Weight loss I don't think would be significant as most of the "quick" weight would be water loss type weight. I can see where it would also have some benefits to the colon

You can also use some MCT oil to get you over the hump

Up to 42 hours and I am in beast mode right now, I have to admit the first 24 were tough and even through 30 was hard. The question was asked why I am doing it? I really just wanted to see if I could do it mentally.

I was doing Keto with 18 hour intermittent fasting and thought why not.

untrue. mct oil yields a metabolic response, therefore breaking a fast

I had to do a 7 day liquid diet in December in preparation for surgery. I lost around 19 pounds in 7 days. It was hard but by day 3 I was losing weight drastically and feeling better. Protein shakes, sugar free jello, Powerade Zero, and Campbell’s soup as long as it didn’t have any chunks.

I have done 12-18 hours before, mainly for blood draws. But have no desire too do 24hrs or more. I could not imagine trying to do anything physical or much of a work out. If you are goal is to loose weight why not just work out and change your life style. It is not a diet. It just means don't put crap in your pie whole all them time and when you do eat healthy and exercise.

My goal was to see if I can do it. I do work out and have a very healthy diet as it is. Just read some benefits of fasting and like a challenge. I just pushed mowed 1/2 an acre and have a ton of energy right now.

No way I could do it. Btw, I’m cooking homemade mac and cheese, wagyu ribeyes and lobster tails for dinner.
