OK I have decided to stop the fast at an even 7 days at 9pm tonight. I felt cold hands and weak all day today. Felt weak yesterday. So I’m calling it.
But at least I have a new tool in my weight loss and health promotion toolbox. Only a week ago I couldn’t get through a 2 day fast and now I can do 7 days. I had grandiose dreams of turning this into a 28 or 30 or 40 day fast and getting down to bone skinny in one fell swoop. But that is not practical. I won’t be entering iOnederland this attempt. Maybe next month. Incremental improvements. Besides, weak and cranky is no way to spend a week at boy scout camp with my son, especially since it is in Colorado so I will be dealing with thin air on top of everything else.
