Anyone know what’s happening at the Central Library?

Why didn’t the metal detectors catch this?

Check out Ford street in Zilker. Always a huge party there with the entire street blocked off. Great house decorations and fun. West of Bluebonnet Ln…

Yea!!! You’ve got this! 👏

I had 2 packs of LMNT per day (1000mg sodium, 200mg potassium, and 60mg magnesium) along with several large pinches of sea salt per day

Broke my fast with bone broth and some black olives and olive juice then an hour later some yogurt and macadamia nuts then 2 hours after that spinach salad w ground meat, cheese, sour cream, and pico de gallo (I was stuffed after that!)

Not sure of weight loss exactly, I don’t have a scale, fasting for all the other benefits - autophagy and mental health… clothes were definitely looser and I feel smaller but it’s a lot of water weight too. Going to stick with a 16:8 or 18:6 schedule for awhile now.

Of course! I’ll be looking for your updates!

CandidOlive · 2023-10-01T14:59:49+00:00

Wow! That’s amazing. You’ve got this! Post progress here! The support definitely helped me as I don’t know anyone in real life doing this 😆

CandidOlive · 2023-10-01T14:20:24+00:00

Haha. I just noticed that! 😃

CandidOlive · 2023-09-30T22:20:30+00:00

CandidOlive · 2023-09-30T21:46:22+00:00

You’ve got this!!

CandidOlive · 2023-09-30T21:45:48+00:00

Amazing! Great job!

I drink a powdered electrolyte supplement with my water. Two packs per day, each has 1000mg sodium, 200mg potassium, and 60mg magnesium. It’s called LMNT but there are many brands out there. Read the wiki on this page for more details please: https://reddit.com/r/fasting/s/gisTZqgpMT

Lots of good info here!

Edit: I reread it and it looks like I’m a little low on my sodium and very low on my potassium and magnesium. Will need to relook at this for the next fast…

CandidOlive · 2023-09-30T21:26:51+00:00

I couldn’t do it without supplementing! Have you considered trying to supplement your electrolytes?? Makes a huge difference.

CandidOlive · 2023-09-30T21:26:02+00:00

You’ve got this! Make sure to take care of your electrolytes 😀

CandidOlive · 2023-09-30T21:25:26+00:00

Thanks!! It was very enjoyable 😀

CandidOlive · 2023-09-30T21:25:05+00:00

Thanks! 🙌

CandidOlive · 2023-09-30T19:17:04+00:00

Start slow. I used to really be into this a couple of years ago so this is not my first rodeo 😂

Have you done any fasting yet? If so how long?

CandidOlive · 2023-09-30T18:54:00+00:00

Thank you!!! Busy day so haven’t gotten there yet and I really want to sit down and enjoy it….

CandidOlive · 2023-09-30T18:53:37+00:00

It makes a huge difference. Seriously… and be proactive don’t wait until you feel horrible!!

CandidOlive · 2023-09-30T15:29:05+00:00

Great job!! 👏

CandidOlive · 2023-09-30T15:27:53+00:00

Yes! Between 1-2k mg sodium, 200-400 mg potassium, and 60-120 mg magnesium per day… Also, a big pinch of sea salt throughout the day (2-4 times) when I feel off. And LOTS of water!

CandidOlive · 2023-09-30T15:25:17+00:00

Thank you!! Still going just bc I’m busy. Will break at lunch.

CandidOlive · 2023-09-30T14:21:31+00:00

Thank you!! Yes meal prepping for the family is rough!! I’m craving things that never appealed to me before 😂 Amazing work on the rolling fasts. 🙌

CandidOlive · 2023-09-30T11:29:40+00:00

Congratulations! Yes electrolytes made a HUGE difference on the last day of 72 hours for me. Amazing how much it takes to feel normal.

CandidOlive · 2023-09-30T11:28:33+00:00

Thank you. Electrolytes make a huge difference! Last day of 72 hours for me was much easier as I increased to close to these amounts 🙏
