When I first started out about a year ago, I lost most of the fat from my body with water fasting, but it caused a bunch of rashes whenever I had to eat.
I’ve gained A LOT of fat back, but after a year of experience, losing this fat is a cakewalk. I’m not sure if I should go back into a water or a dry fast first, but I remember how awful I felt with water (always cold, body was cramped, rashes, uncontrollable bladder, acetone breath and smell).
Dry fasting makes me light headed and tired, but at least I don’t feel terrible. Should I jump back straight into the dry fast? My blood pressure hasn’t been looking so hot, but I don’t think any amount of fasting will help until I can discipline myself enough to stop my food addiction. I went from 200 to 155 to 200.
I believe oxytocin production is fundamental for the effect of dry fasting (for efficient weight loss and healing).
Oxytocin is also linked to addiction, as it makes them lessen.
It’s also a hormone connected to vasopressin, an antidiureric hormone which might not be as induced by water than dry fasting.
