Day 7.8 water fast

For context: I drink plenty of water each day, and 1 tbsp of pink Himalayan salt once a day. I am very active and have a lot to do during the day. Since 2 days ago I noticed myself starting to become weaker and losing my energy, so I started sleeping more. Now today I got up at my usual time and didn’t feel well rested so I had to get back in bed because I just felt so weak. I haven’t been able to get out of bed today because every time I do I just feel like I haven’t slept at all. Does anyone have any advice for me?

Answer

  1. Stop

  2. Take potassium, magnesium and salt.

  3. Take a light meal, try fasting again. And know that this isn’t a competition. Look at the 7.8 days you have completed, not the few days that you couldn’t complete

Answer

I appreciate all of the feedback leading to the same answer. I will be taking everyone’s advice, eat something light, and look for something that has all of these ingredients in it for further fasting.

Answer

Make your own Ketorade (electrolytes) to combate fatigue & headaches! easiest recipe: 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp potassium (Nu salt substitute), 1 tsp magnesium (natural calm or epson salt) sugar free flavor (crystal light, mio) 64 oz water. Sip all day. Bonus tips: due to all the salty electrolytes, sour flavors go best like lemonades, margarita flavor, etc) and the magnesium helps with BMs!
