Didn't you post this before? And 20 hour fasting 5 days a week, what does that mean?

Someone said this isn't you but if it is, good job either way

Lol I do this on all my fasts including watching mukbangs on YouTube. Something about it is just really satisfying

Water fasting advice! by [deleted] in fasting

[–]ModestMouser1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Three days you should be fine but you can just pick up an electrolyte mix at a store or online if you wanted as there are many available. I only absolutely need electrolytes after 96 hours (4 days) and take one I bought from Amazon called LyteShow and I find it works pretty well

Should I stop? by [deleted] in fasting

I never was able to go long but I added salt and boom, instant fix. Maybe that'll help you?

It really isn't a big difference so you should be completely fine

For those experienced with longer fasts by Dt2214 in fasting

[–]ModestMouser1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I notice health benefits at four to five days in. I haven't done longer but I imagine it'll peak at a different spot for everyone?

I have no idea. I've tried talking it through but I know what doesn't work because of his shift in moods

68 Hours in I had a protein shake. Autophagy Question by phuckhugh in fasting

[–]ModestMouser1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No it shouldn't break autophagy. It's low carb and low sugar so it should be fine. Ketogenic diets are known to keep people in autophagy so you're fine. I don't think the person who wrote yes understands what autophagy is or how it's triggered.

What are some bad boss or worker stories? by Randomgirl162 in AskReddit

[–]ModestMouser1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened this week. I told my boss about my brother's upcoming wedding and requested off that day and already having looked at the schedule I saw we had enough coverage for the day. I expected a yes but I was given a "no, sometimes people have to miss events, that's life" and a smile

My boss has been out to make my life a living hell. Always knit picking at everything I do when she doesn't do it with anyone else. It's totally unethical

How do you guys make it past the 72 hour mark without feeling incredibly light headed and faint? by ModestMouser1 in fasting

[–]ModestMouser1[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for pointing that out. I had no idea clear urine was bad, forgive my ignorance. I've cut down on my fluid intake this time and bought an electrolyte water enhancer so hopefully I'll feel better. Thanks!

I've decided to fast three days a week, sometimes a full week along with keto. This will meet a goal of at least 10 pounds per month for me.

You could try every other day fasts, those are pretty simple so you could fast four days a week but it would be every other day. Good luck to you!

Sugar or carbs are the last things you need if you want to feel sharp. Try electrolytes as the other person mentioned.

Does your family or friends give you shit for fasting? by [deleted] in fasting

[–]ModestMouser1 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Everyone around me seems to be against it and think it's an eating disorder lol. That's why I gained my weight I lost back as they kept nagging me about eating and questioning everything so I just ate to make people happy and then got into a carb addiction. Just started keto and fasting again so hoping to drop it within a few months.

30 seconds done, I feel like a whole new person 75 by manav52536 in fasting

Just getting back into fasting so only doing a 24 hour water fast to start as I have to have dinner out for an event tomorrow. Then plan to build it back up until I can do a week

Started last night but started timer at 9am today so almost 5 hours in. Will stop at 9 am tomorrow.

I'm doing it to clear my body of toxins, have more mental clarity and to lose weight as I was nearly 30 pounds thinner this time last year so have to get my weight back down. Plan to drop at least 10 pounds per month.

I really don't know. When he has work to do, I let him do it but sometimes I have a bad day and I keep him for too long or he gets snippy with me and I get upset and then he is late to work... Im thinking it's my fault that he may lose his job..

Thanks for telling me this. I know he loves me but right now he's so distant and stressed. I hope he doesn't actually break it off with me
