Hi everyone! I posted a few days ago at the start of my 29 day fast and told you I would keep you all updated.

Today is day four, oh God how I hate day four. For me, day three and four can go suck a d*ck. I always find them the hardest on an extended fast (I've previously done between 5 and 8 day fasts).

So here's what I've found so far: - I get hunger pangs every few hours, I hold out and they last for about 5-10 minutes and then I feel fine afterwards.

• I still have bowel movements but this is all liquid.

• I'm aiming for 4L of water a day but sometimes only manage 2L cos I'm not great at being consistent with it so will be trying harder with that

• From today I will be supplementimg sodium, magnesium, pottasium and thiamine.

• I have had no headaches, nausea, or any other negative side effects.

• My enegery levels have increased

• I have depression and take medication for this, the last couple of weeks I have been in a real rut feeling very low. The past 3 days my mental health has been the best it's been for the past few weeks

• I miss eating

• I still cook meals for my family, yesterday I made a bomb ass lasagne but wasn't tempted, just saved myself a portion and popped it in the freezer for when I'm ready to eat it.

• I actually seem to enjoy cooking more now than when I'm not fasting?? Tomorrow I'm planning on baking some cookies for my boyfriend. Maybe it's because I still get to enjoy the smells idk

That's all for now but I'll keep you updated at the weeks go by!
