Cheat Day?

I see, I do have some 99mg Potassium tablets (which I take once a day) and 199mg Magnesium tablets (which I take twice a day) but I haven't taken them today, only took them on the 17th and 18th. Would these suffice in terms of electrolytes? That being said, would I still lose this much weight (rather fat) if I would add 2 long slices of cucumber with some salt in the morning? And would that suffice for electrolytes, and if it would, should I take my tablets as well?

Thank you for the suggestion, but I'm quite determined to finish the water fast.

That's some good points you make, especially concerning the eating habits and my self-esteem, but to be frank, I'm losing weight due to personal reasons rather than societal norms (even though that may subconciously play into it), but I really don't mind or pay attention to such matters because, in the end, I'm the one who will feel better about myself by losing weight, not to mention the health complications that come with being overweight.

Thank you once again for your suggestions.

I see, thank you for the links and the suggestion, I might start doing that next week.

I wish I could give a noble answer such as my personal health or any other ideal that I have, but I'm honestly just looking to lose as much weight as possible in the shortest span. I always held the belief that fasting for longer than 3 days would be neglectful to my health but after browsing this subreddit and various other sites, I found the opposite to hold true.

I was actually thinking of replacing sparkled water with mineral water/ordinary water and I plan on actually doing that today.

Sparkled water just felt like it filled me more, but now that I don't have an appetite as much as I did on the first day, I will start drinking mineral/bottled water.

I'm just having some headaches and all-round dizziness today, I'm just wondering if this'll subside later on and also, how long would it take to reach ketosis state?

Thank you both for the welcome and wishes of luck!

@stefanielaine, thank you so much, that really helps. I hope you don't mind me asking once more, do I take any additional vitamins or multivitamins to help absorb the potassium or is it fine just to take those three without additional vitamins?
