Im on day 4 of my 6 days waterfast, and what i have noticed is that my energy levels and hunger goes intensely up and down during the day. Like today i felt like death in the morning. I was super tired, lethargic and hungry, but i slept it of, went to the gym and went for shopping. And now i feel super amazing. I have ALOT of energy and im not hungry at all. I feel i could run 10km right now.
Is this normal? I have 2 more days and honestly im super excited. My body looks so much better and i feel like my self discipline has increased a lot. I have so far lost 3 kg. And i think i will hit my goal weight when im done with 6 days :D
Idk if the high energy is normal, but sounds amazing! Only time I’ve ever had extra energy while fasting is when I did rolling 3:1. But typically on extended fasts, days 2-3 I’m super hungry, then days 4-5 I’m lethargic, then from there on I’m just slightly low energy and lazy.
I experience the same thing on longer fasts! I try to work through the lower energy moments with cup of bouillon or a zero cal energy drink.It’s great that your fast is going so well and I hope you’ll reach your goal weight!
