Feeling Very Weak

It’s been about 38 hours into my water fast which I plan on doing until the 13th. I’m feeling SOOOOO weak and I’ve never felt like this during a water fast. Usually I’m good to GO and I feel fantastic. Maybe a little hungry, but I normally feel great. 3 days before I begun this, I had been dry fasting for 2 1/2 days. Could this be the reason why I feel so weak? Do you think I should stop, or should I keep going. Yesterday I drank 80oz of water, for some reason it felt like torture trying to drink anymore water than that. I just literally got done drinking my first 40oz today. Help please!

Answer

Are you having electrolytes? The problem is with water fasts is that taking in water, flushes through your system and it can mess with your electrolytes in a way that doesn’t happen with dry fasts. At the very least add some salt to your water, but I believe the fasting sub gives some more details on what electrolytes to take.
