Should I fast (after sickness)


(Michelle) #1

I had a stomach bug Friday night, :face_vomiting: everything I ate that evening. Saturday I still had fever and body aches, ate only dinner. About 500 calories, 37 grams of fat. I felt better Today (Sunday) but had very little appetite. HWC in my coffee. I had 1/2 of a 1100 calorie Cobb salad at O’Charley’s for lunch and a little chicken salad and fresh cut up veggies for dinner. Not much fat.

I know I haven’t fed my body well this weekend, but I really wanted to fast Monday since it felt so good last week. Should I wait or try and see how it feels?

I would refeed now if you are hungry and still go ahead with the fast.
There’s no saying you can’t, but if you don’t feel well to begin with then I wouldn’t go ahead with it.
I’ve just started too and I am so addicted to it, I love feeling this way, more than I love food.
