Today was a fail.
(First, Attempt, In, Learning)
Cuz shark week, aka The Periodt, is coming. So a week and a few days before the great bleed, I swear, I go THROUGH a fridge.
And lawd, I woke up today and went to town with confidence XD
I used to say “Never dieting or fasting near shark week”
But tomorrow is gonna be Day ONE again.
it is SO hard to beat the mental game but Imma research hard. Even if I have to cheat a lil and put salt under my tongue.
Any tips from pro-dry fasters are appreciated and even beginners alike are welcome.
I SO wish we had a discord.
Imma keep my eating window 10-12pm
I had to work on it slowly like a muscle. If I had mild thirst, I would endure it until it moved into intense thirst then I would drink water, each time I did this I would be able to go longer without thirst. The thirst point moved from 12 hours, to 16,24, 2 days. Was actually stuck on 2 days a couple times until it stopped and then I went 5 days easily. Just like lifting weights, if you want to bench 300 lbs, don’t go straight for it, go from 200 or w/e you can do to get there.
I’m not sure if I would combine OMAD and dry-fasting, that seems like a recipe for dehydration and digestive issues.
That being said, I’m right there with you when it comes to PMS week. I swear I can out-eat competitive eaters during that week.
I feel you! I had to cut fasting short when mine started last week because the cramps totally take me out.
And someone did start a discord! Not me but I joined it. Not sure how active it is. Try this link or search the group if it doesn’t work it should be there https://discord.gg/RDJQ9f3g
