Hello all! I’ve been doing IF/OMAD for months now and I’m currently 19hrs into my first long fast (shooting for 5 days). Drinking water regularly so far, though I did add 1/2tsp salt and 1/4tsp of nosalt to 24oz per the wiki. that was rough to get down lol
My concern so far is, BM. I’ve had 2 movements today, both have been liquid. Uhh, what’s wrong? Haha. I’ve read never trust a fart, and that’s fine, but I’m wondering if this should be happening so quickly?
Thanks in advance! 🫡
Too much salt causes unbalanced electrolytes and can cause bloating and digestive issues. It’s happened to me and why I take these electrolyte fasting capsules that have 6 of the major electrolytes you need.

You’ve had no similar issues on IF/OMAD? Have you been taking electrolytes?
My guess is overdoing the electrolytes. That seems to be the only variable. I typically don’t take electrolytes at all the first day I’m fasting.
