5-Day Fast Diary / Tracker

#7

12 Hours
Weight was up this morning but I really feasted ahead of time. I was expecting a little jump.
BG was 93 when I woke up. Down to 91 at 12 hours in. I’ll measure every 3 hours.

Coming up with ideas for things to distract myself. Sundays are typically my grocery and cook/prep days. Will definitely be painting my nails to be presentable at work this week, but the rest of the day, not sure.
Here’s my list.

  • Paint fingernails and toenails
  • Clean out closet, get rid of old clothes to donate
  • Clean baseboards and around edges of floors
  • Practice ukulele/guitar (before painting nails)
  • Organize garage
  • Update photos in picture frames around the house
  • Watch a movie
  • Organize office
  • Post stuff for sale on eBay/FB/NextDoor
  • Sleep
  • Follow-up on work stuff

21 Hours
Going well so far. Drinking more water than I typically do, eating some salt. No issues. Tummy grumbly but not too bad. I’ve had about 6 ozs of black coffee twice.

From my distraction list, I’ve been tackling my closet getting rid of clothes in disrepair, clothes that no longer fit, clothes that make me wonder WTH I was thinking when I bought them. Two big garbage bags full and ready for donation. I’ve also rediscovered a few items I forgot about, that were too small and now they fit.

The first 24 hours seems easy since I’ve done it many times. The real milestone for me will be around the 48 hour mark. I’m hoping since I’m doing this during the work week that I’ll be distracted the majority of each day. Fingers crossed. :crossed_fingers:

@atomicspacebunny
Thank you for this! I watched the entire thing and found it interesting, not to mention it helped another hour to pass without food. :slight_smile:

Awesome, this is great, and should also be an encouragement to keep up the good work and the fasting =-)).

Almost 48 hours in.
Just started feeling a little headache coming on. I guess that’s probably normal for this point in a fast. Everything else is going well. Work is keeping me busy. I have also started to give meditation another try. Was eating salt yesterday but just got the magnesium citrate today to make a big match of Ketoaide. So, I’ve started that now, too. Here are some numbers for fun.

Looking good!

I think that is the original video that made people aware of fasting!

Those are some pretty extensive medically supervised fasts they were talking about!

What is so fascinating is the endless reversal of some very serious medical conditions in their medical archives? Main stream medical community will be screaming it’s not possible?

I personally would not even attempt a fast for more than 10 days without medical supervision, I’m too chicken…lol

They were talking about two week fasts or more, that is pretty deep stuff?

Nice. You are definitely tending down

Are you tracking weight loss? :cowboy_hat_face:

#22

@David_Stilley Yes! I was at 162 the day I started and was 158.2 this morning. So four days, and almost 4 pounds!

(Susan) #23

Congratulations, you are doing great =).

Looking forward to your next update.
As your chart is getting long, maybe consider keeping the last 3 entries and then add on from there, just so your post isn’t just a lot of numbers. Plus we can easily scroll for the previous entries.

Thanks for the advice. I think instead I’ll just keep one full chart and will delete ones posted previously with duplicate data. I like being able to see the whole data set and scan down through the numbers in one place.

I actually just kept updating one chart, but do what works best for you :slight_smile:
