Doing a 3 days water fasting would be nice to hear some history from y'all
I’m trying to incorporate 3 fasting days a week. Is there a noticeable difference between doing it for 3 days straight vs doing a 2 day fast, eating as normal for a couple of days and then doing a...
It's my third day of fasting. I'm struggling here. I want some PHO so badly lol.
Ay so Im starting a 3 day water fast for clear skin and I need someone to hold me to it. If I feel alright at the end of it then Ill extend it.
About to start my first attempt at a 3 day fast. Posting here to hopefully keep myself accountable
Yeah, the tytle says everything. After 3 days i plan to eat for one day and than do another 3 days.
Let me know please. Also can i just rehydrate on those days instead of refeeding?
Just salt on everyday or just after the second? And is pink Himalayan salt ok for 3 days?
Which of these will help you retain more lean muscle? I read somewhere in a study that participants who exercised and water fasted for extended periods of time lost only 10% of lean mass and 90% fat. Compared to...
Today I'm on my second day of dry fasting, aiming to 3 days or more if I can. So, the day before I started, I prepared my body with a day of juice fasting and cleansed my colon with an enema...

My side hurts bad i dont know if its a muscle problem or something wrong with my kidneys.
Hello guys...Soon I will try dry fasting for 3 days for religious reasons. I am quite used to water fasting for long periods, and I could possibly go a day without water as well easily, however I never attempted dry...
Does that mean you get all the health benefits of a 21 day water fast with just a 7 day dry fast? Iknow this question might seem self explanatory
yesterday i finished my first 3 day fast and had chicken parm to break it, today i was expecting my hunger to return to normal but i haven’t been hungry at all, should i wait untill i’m actually hungry or...
Looking to get into fasting, but only want to do 3 days per week. Timing is more or less between 7pm - 11am next day. Goal is not necessarily to lose weight, just other benefits such as metabolism, mental clarity etc...

I got tongue sores (looks like blisters) after fasting, I thought it was due to electrolytes deficiency. I repeated a 2 day fast this week after supplementing b12, iron and electrolytes for a week. Unfortunately it didn't help, I got...

I don't take any supplements besides vitamin c
So I broke my 3.5 day dry fast today with electrolytes, bone broth, coconut water and two smoothies. I was wondering if I could continue this cycle of dry fasting, liquid refeed, and dry fasting again. My body stores too...
This was my first attempt, I've been 24 hour fasting for about a week and very new to it all,, so I guess I shouldn't be that upset with myself, but I'm still bummed. I could use some support and...
Day 3 done. I don't actually feel that thirsty, but my mouth is more dry which is kinda annoying. Overall, I'm doing well and my energy levels are about the same, although I'm starting to get some vertigo when I...

Would fasting every weekend (Fri, Sat, Sun) be too much? I know 24-48 weekly fasts are best but would a 48-72 hour fast be too much? Eating lightly but enough Monday through Thursday and then fasting for the next three...

Hi, Height: 178cm Weight: 185 lbs / 83.91 kg Let's assume I stop eating now and I will drink water + salt for the next 3 weeks. How do I calculate my fat loss?
I’m 180cm 90kg, I’ve been “fasting” for 3 days but there’s been no scale weight loss, I’ve been drinking diet drinks that contain very minimal calories, like less than 10 cals, so I’m not technically fasting, but I’m not intaking...
the most I've done is 56 hours and feel ready to go beyond. either the 72 hour or 5 day. Which one would maximize benefits or does autophagy really peak at 72 hours?
From Day 1-5, I’ve had only mineral water, green tea, water with lemon, and a little cold brew coffee (black), and water with Nuun (electrolytes, 15 cal). I’ve walked (approx 10 miles/day) and had 2 HIIT workouts. I lost weight...
The *habit* of eating is usually the most challenging to me, suddenly I have this “extra time” I’m not sure how to deal with during the day, multiple times a day. I’m thinking of filling these eating windows with something...

First fast ever, I picked 4 days which I felt it was long enough to feel the gamut of fasting. There is also no point of being stubborn if you don't put it to a good use; once I started...
Newbie here. I’m on my first 3 day fast. Feeling great so far but I’m curious about what results you all have gotten so I can manage my expectations

As the title states I am 3 days into my first dry fast, and my first realization is that this is exceptionally easier than a water fast. I do have some questions as I am for 7 days dry fast. ​ the...
Having surgery sucks, especially having a surgery that significantly impacts your day-to-day functions. I had to get my tonsils taken out this week so eating is extremely difficult. I'm mildly thankful that I've been fasting on-and-off for the...

I just discovered the world of water fasting last week, and after an early dinner on Saturday I decided to go for it—and my first-ever fast just hit 72 hours. It was surprisingly easy for me, aside from some sleep...
Last meal I had was yesterday @12pm, I had a half a chicken, brown rice, and black beans with two bananas. Longest I’ve ever fasted before was two days, so another day should be just fine. I’m not doing this...

Basically the title but I’ve been more or less doing keto with lower fat meats and staying under my calories that I need for the day on my refeed days. Does keto improve weight loss while fasting or does it...
Hi all, Frequently after a 3-day fast (or 2- or 4-day), my energy drops as soon as I break my fast. That appears to be a common occurrence, according to other posts I read. However, the next day after breaking...
My thirst is quite moderate, perhaps even slight. It is the tedium of being slightly thirsty for days that is so freaking boring. I am pretty sure that others feel this way. The tedium is almost unbearable....
I’m experienced with these lengths of fasts but I haven’t fasted in a month and a half and need to lose some weight. What kind of foods would be most ideal to eat when breaking my fasts? I’m thinking steak,...
