5 minutes past midnight. Just started the dry fast at midnight. The last 6 hours I’ve been slowly hydrating with water, snake juice and psyllium husk in water for fibre (tastes absolutely disgust btw) so this should be 3 days. I’ve only ever done 2 days dry and it was easy but I ate not because I was hungry but I was like yeah just today I’ll eat then I can start again tomorrow but I’m secretly hoping I’ll make it to day 5 then transition to a standard water fast. Wish me luck 🍀
Update Day 1. Woke up with dry mouth, I seem to always sleep with my mouth open but I closed it when I got up and it soon became hydrated again. Hunger 0/10 so far Felt a bit hungry and thirsty by day’s end but it passed. I couldn’t stay away from the vape though. I’m so 😡 but I’m on my last few puffs cause I’m running very low on liquid and I’m not going to get more
Day 2 early hours. Dry mouth, I’m so looking forward to a cold glass of tap water 😤 No electrolytes, just for normal water oof.
Day 3 broke the damn fast as soon as I woke up. My mouth was compels dry when waking up. I’ve already ordered those sleeping tape thing from Amazon. It should be here by Friday.
This is the first time I’ve heard of prepping with psyllium husk for the fibre. I have to say intuitively this doesn’t make sense to me as this would absorb a lot of the water, is this a snake diet thing?
With regards to the sleeping with your mouth open, I used tape when I first started dry fasting. You can find this on Amazon. It is a little weird but really helps keep the mouth closed, and I think it quickly becomes a habit, because you’re very very aware of doing it.
Great job, hang in there! 😊I actually feel that the dry fast should be a sharp tool for quitting nicotine and other addictions (if you want to), seems to take away a lot of the cravings, more so than on water fasting.I quit nicotine a month ago and that is mainly why I do this current fast. Did strong stuff for a long time which affected the health/physique a lot too, wanted to give it a big push forward time-/and healing wise. Haven’t felt any cravings att all for nicotine during the dry fast. Only water and other watery drinks, lol
If you breathe with your mouth open I highly recommend taping it shut while you sleep. Serious. Microspore tape works great for this. Should help a lot.I also tape my mouth when I take a shower while I’m fasting just in case.
