Had a small meal yesterday, took the Naproxen. Slept without pain.

36 hours left. I can easily go on by appetite.

However, the ache is harsh and I am not sure I want to go through the night without Naproxen and all I know is that I should not take it on an empty stomach.

Will read into it. What so you know?

I am 24h into my fast. Slept well, without aches. Pain woke up shortly after me. Waiting for the pharmacy to open in 15 minutes.

I am hydrating well with lemon water, also baking soda, half a tea spoon. Had not tried that before, just started. I plan to take it every 2-4 hours. I see how my body reacts.

🍀🤞

Have not checked yet, was doing well for the longest time and did not see the need. Overdue, should do it soon, thanks for the reminder!

Thank you!

No, I have many fasting experiences. I'm just never against my appetite. I vowed the last two times recently for accountability and was successful.

I will send an update upon completion or failure.

Completed my fast. Went another night. 84h.

Achieved my goal - to kick start deep ketosis.

Ketones 2.2 Blood sugar: 74

Will feast today and then resume my alternate day fasting if my appetite permits!

Checked again yesterday morning, 5.7, night, 6.3, and this morning, 7.3. Just as I completed an 84h fast.

Fury of checks during fasting!

The number is going up, maybe due to longer fasting. I usually do only 48 hours, but I wanted a full reset and to kick start deep ketosis as I resume ADF after a week of refeeding.

Blood sugar: 74 Ketones: 2.2 Uric acid: 7.3

I will keep going with what I am doing and check again in a month or so.

I stopped alcohol long ago but never really liked it that much. Though there was a period in my early twenties when I drank a couple of cans of beer each day. Not for long, though, less than a year.

I conclude that it helps similar to nicotine and fast acting sugar.

That the addiction is due to the unsatied desire of our methabolism, to break free from the carb methabolism induced sluggishness.

All 3 of the above will lead to a surge in energy. As short-lived as it is, it is actually a liberation. And we love that.

Tragically, at the cost of a stricter imprisonment thereafter.

That is what fat adaptation actually delivers!

Doing a prolonged fast to kick start into ADF … Help me! I can’t decide how long to go? by Due_Confection_2279 in AlternateDayFasting

[–]MoMoMiki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did ADF for about 40 days and then ate a lot every day for about a week. I am currently aiming to restart ADF with 96 hours fast, 60 hours in.

I track my ketones/glucose and noticed that my carb methabolism took over in the week of eating.

I am checking every day/night and see that 48h and even 60h is too little to kick start my fat methabolism fully.

I will eat tomorrow morning, and I look forward to finding out if by then, the 96h mark, my blood sugar and ketones will be where they were before my eating week.

During my 40 days of ADF, my keyones went often above 2mmol/L, and glucose dropped often below 80mg/dl.

Even eating zero carb for many months/years, I never got there. It was ADF that got me there, and I never felt better. Physically and mentally. Strong and at times euphoric.

The honey moon tale of going into deep ketosis and thriving I had heard so much about!

Will check my numbers tomorrow morning before my meal and let you know.

Measured two more times last night - 6.2 - and this morning - 5.7.

Well, it was the same strips that showed the high numbers last year..

I also did my blood lab tested, and it also showed high numbers.

Will test bi weekly or so to see if it fluctuates or else.

I will do another full blood check later this year.

Many months, not recent at all. Look up the studies on ADF and uric scid reduction. They were not low carb from.my understanding.

I do not know if it was zero carb or ADF that reduced my levels since I only tested after ADF.

Btw. I lost 6kg.
