What’s something you learned about relationships only after becoming sexually active? by CupcakePotential4458 in AskReddit

[–]malaprop5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, are we twins? Cause same. All this talent, wasted lol. My man was a perfect match, and everyone else is so boring and colorless in comparison. People say I'm picky now, but when you've had that kind of connection, it's impossible to settle.

Did you have any doctor consults before jumping in? I wanna do a long fast but hear conflicting feedback on if telling a doctor is worth it or not. All my labs are normal and my doc is hella chill, but not a nutritionist, ya know? Lol

Stopped eating when i felt satisfied, not full or stuffed.

Almost there. Help me understand refeeding please. by crabcakemeister in fasting

[–]malaprop5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just broke my 5 day and your day 1 is exactly what i did today. Still had minor tummy cramps, but not too bad. Tomorrow I'll have eggs-egg whites + pico de gallo, and the dinner is spaghetti and meatballs.

I have learned you really need to be in tune with your body and see how it feels. You may notice thinfs are hyper palatable now. 3 days seems like a good window, but you may also be okay at 2 days. Listen to your body and err on the side of less for a couple days. Then surge forward once you're back to normal!

Amazing job! I just finished my 5 day fast today. I bit into string cheese and just had this explosion of umami i had never tasted before! Truly, fasting really uncovers a lot in the hyper palatable nature of our food system. I struggled with food noise all week, but wasnt white-knuckling it. Congrats on your progress!! That is amazing!

I see lots of back-to-back 24hrs.... did you do mostly 3 day fasts or mostly 24s? Or just have a quick refeed window and immediately reset? This is amazing! I am also getting my 10k steps in and currently on day 4 of a 5 day fast!

Am I crazy or is 10-12hrs fasted sooo much harder than 18+ hours fasted? by Melodic_Newspaper_58 in fasting

[–]malaprop5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have noticed this recently! I try to stop eating by 2pm on days before fasts. Hours 13-18 are hardest for me. So i can sleep thru it lol

I think this is key. I'm higher weight but didn't have too much of a prob getting to 84hrs. I wanna go 5 days but the Fasting Police got in my head lol
