RE: Ulog: Weight Loss Update! 12 lbs Lost. Going Good :)
Wow, how the heck do you fast for so long? How many calories do you eat on a fast day??
Wow, how the heck do you fast for so long? How many calories do you eat on a fast day??
I went Sunday evening at around 10pm to Friday evening around 6pm without eating solid food. The only thing I ingested during those 5 days was natural spring water with a 1/2 tsp himalayan pink salt, tsp of sodium bicarbonate, and a tsp of potassium chloride mixed in a 1 liter of water. I drink between one to two of those each day, and each morning I drink a 16 ounce glass of water with two tablespoons apple cider vinegar, and squeeze of lemon juice from a half fresh lemon. I'm trying to do my second week now.
I'm not a dietician, so definitely consult with a doctor if you're thinking about doing something like this.
Oh don't worry, I am surely not thinking about doing that! WOW, no calories whatsoever?? How did you deal with the hunger pangs? That is pretty extreme, is there are spiritual element behind your fast, or is it purely to lose weight?
For the most part just weight loss. Believe it or not the hunger pangs haven't been that bad. Once you get passed the 3rd day you have a wierd energy and it feels like your senses are heightened a bit. Everything looks brighter and crisper. Once you get past the first 48 hours it just gets easier and easier.
Man, I get hangry if I even skip a meal! Lol lol. Seriously tho.... How often do you fast? How many days in between? How many times have you fasted? Just curious, I have always wanted to try a fast but never really went for it. It's a huge part of culture for most countries, except for the west.
So far the longest has been 5 days. This week I went 3, and cheated with a very light salad last night. I had 3 hard boiled eggs for breakfast, and I'm making a bone broth for dinner and to sip on over the weekend. I'll also eat fairly normal tomorrow, Sunday snacks during the football games with diety snacks. Eat a decent keto friendly meal Sunday night, then next week I plan on eating every other day. Water fasting for 36 hours, break fast with another keto friendly meal, then another 36 hours. Wash, rinse, repeat till Friday. I posted another Ulog update on my progress if you're interested https://ulogs.org/@the-bitcoin-dood/ulog-diet-update-going-great-close-to-20lbs-lost
Have a great weekend and thanks for your interest :) Cheers
