Answer

Made it to 80 hours, which is the longest I’ve ever gone before! I may quit at supper tonight or try to push until tomorrow and break 100, I’m not sure. Had pretty bad insomnia last night and only slept 4 hours, even though I upped my electrolytes in case that was the problem. I’m fasting mainly for the benefits of autophagy to try and heal from some health issues and it’s frustrating not to know exactly when I’ve hit the full benefit from that…
