I have been eating two meals a day… A good sized breakfast, with plenty of fats, then a good dinner, about 8-12 hours later. I do try to eat dinner as early as possible, as Id like to be eating for 8-16, but I get caught up in daily activities, and often eat later than I’d prefer, and I end up doing the 12-12 thing…
Anyway, every Sunday, for the last 3, I have had a very early breakfast (after waking up in my car… for work) and have not had another bite of anything until the next morning at 9 or 10am. This makes for a 26-30 hour fast.
So this morning after I woke up, I laid in bed and thought to myself, “Do I really need to eat this morning ? Heck, I was already 26 hours into a good fast. Why stop there, right” ??? And here’s the kicker, its totally not that I was super hungry ! It was just that it just felt so weird… odd… wrong… to “not eat”…
…that I ended up having a nice sized breakfast… and basically ruined my chance at a much better 48 hour fast
I guess my whole point is, physically, I feel like many more hours of fasting, if not another whole day, might have been possible. But the problem was not physical, It was psychological.
Hmmmm. Thoughts and advice ???
