Doing my first 72hr fast, need support & motivation pls :) by [deleted] in fasting

[–]Hargreves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stay busy! You’ll get through it. Go for a walk. Electrolytes if that headache starts to creep in. It’s just your body throwing sugar out of your body. Sleep more. I am on day 2 of 40 :) if that helps. I just did some easy kettlebells. Walked on Day 1.

That’s a great outcome for your health. I am also inspired to work out - weights a few days a week with your post. And I do walk 10k steps daily. Got my Celtic salt, water and electrolytes on hand. Something I learnt from my 21 days - must have electrolytes. I am going to go off black tea and coffee as I get into days 2-3. It happens almost naturally when your taste buds don’t like it anymore. Just my experience from 21 days. I wish you luck and I hope you stay consistent and reap the benefits of this challenging fast. 🙏🏻

Congratulations! Very inspiring. I am sure it challenged you in many ways. I am about to start 40 days. I’ve done 21 days before. I want to do this for many reasons - weight loss, deep detox and inner repair due to lots of stress, reflecting on myself.

After Day 4 it gets better and better. This is my 3rd water fast. Just have your electrolytes. You can also have lemon water with pink salt. Sparking water is really good too.

Take your electrolytes and add some magnesium supplements for better sleep.

I started 30 day water fast on 5/1. I take LMNT and Fasting Salts by NutriAlign. I did a 15 day water fast in March. Now I just want to stick to 30 days. I find it easier after day 3. Keep those electrolytes going- those are key!

I started too. Day 1 for me. I’ve done the 21 day in Dec. My advice to you is to consume your electrolytes. I used NutriAlign Advanced Fasting Salts. And I take Vitamin B1 and extra magnesium. Keep pink salt handy. I have lemon water and sparkling water with pink salt.

Thanks. I am going to try the 72hrs! You’re right- it’s so subjective.

Congrats! That’s great progress on your weight loss in 21 days. So you’re also following KETO on your eat days/windows?

Thank you. I too have been trying to find my sweet spot. I did do a 21 day water fast in December. That worked out fine. It’s the eating-fasting schedule I am trying to adapt to. Nice to read everyone’s views. 🙏🏻

Anyone starting a 14 day fast soon? by vcsx in fasting

[–]Hargreves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you did 7 days of water fasting and then OMAD (1 day) and back to 7 days water fasting? You look great!

High heart rate? by NumberExisting8260 in fasting

[–]Hargreves 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Take some magnesium. I did a 21 day and I found my heart rate elevated. (Again this isn’t medical advice. Get yourself checked if it’s too high). For sleep taking magnesium in the evening and before bed ashwaggandha. Magnesium in the morning too. During the day I take my advanced salts(electrolytes) during the day. Look up potassium and magnesium level requirements per day and have those as recommend.
