@Lunalee13 72 was my first EF goal and once i got there, I was at 120 in no time. You’re almost there :slight_smile:

Well it’s 1am in NZ and I’ve woken from a rather restless sleep and decided to break my fast st 77 hrs. Munching on a bowl of macadamias and cashews to get me through to breakfast when hopefully I can put these aches behind me. I’ve got a job interview today so need to have my wits about me.

(I came for the weight loss and stayed for my sanity... ) #413

Good luck Susie! You’ll kill it!! :metal:

Well done YOU. Broke it properly as well.

Hi fasting friends! Thank you all for the support and encouragement! Shortstuff I’m sorry the migraines are coming around. I get those too and man is it a hassle and also scary.

I had a great day of lounging around and now I’m back to try another three day run, starting now.

#416

Hope the aches go away!

#417

That means a lot! Thank you! Never knew this was even a possibility.

The best part of fasting… beIng busy and the hours fly by! I actually feel like this encourages me to do more. Like tonight, organizing photo frames, can’t wait😃! Been wanting to do this forever. It’s like autophagy for my closet! Haha!

I was with friends at a festival. There were foodstands everywhere and it didn’t even phase me… :heart_eyes::sunglasses:
The power of fasting!

#420

That rules!

Reached 60 hours. Not hungry but the headache is killing me. I just got over the ‘detox hump’ I would hate to break my fast now and have my gut go crazy on me :roll_eyes:

I am at hour 57 and have extreme heartburn and I never get heartburn._

(back and doublin' down) #423

ugh…heartburn/digestive issues is what keeps me going back to extended fasts because it’s the only time I’m assured of not hurting. However!..this last 5 day fast, I started having a little gastric upset towards the end. Maybe someone with more science can explain?

August thread started?

(Allie) #424

August :slight_smile:

(Teresa (turtle)) #425

Thank you Allie! I tried to figure out how to link it here and couldn’t! :rofl:

#426

I had the same thing–toward the end of day 4, I got some acid reflux while drinking carbonated water (which usually doesn’t affect me)

#427

Keto and fasting is changing my life. I just hit 50 lbs lost going from 236 to 186. Who would have thought that bacon, eggs, cheese and butter would be the answer.

(KCKO, KCFO) #428

Just hitting the end of a 36 hr. fast, had one cup of bone broth and some coffee/hwc. Feeling good and not hungry think I will just ride it out and see how it goes.

Hope everyone is having a great weekend, Can’t believe we are burning Aug. days already. Summer flies by.

#429

Anyone wanna start a fast fight now?
