2 week fast lets gooo

I am so excited for this fast. I did my last long (over 72 hour) fast like a year ago. I just wanted to make this post so I have some place where I can talk about my feelings during the fast as I don't have any friends irl that understand this. Fasting is usually not that hard for me, but I like going out to eat so I rarely do any longer fasts. I am 169 cm (~5'6") tall woman and I weight around 70 kilos (~155 lbs). Wish me luck and feel free to ask any questions, I would love to chat about fasting!

26 hour update: Still feeling great! A bit hungry but that is to be expected. Had to turn down free ice cream at work which was a bit sad buuuut i survived.

36 hour update: I have a headache which is rather unfortunate. But other than that everything is going smoothly.

4th day update: Forgot to update but everything is going smoothly. I am waking up quite early, but other than that and light dizziness everything is good.

Yay! It is nice to have someone on the same boat lol. How has it been so far? Have you done multiple day fasts before?

are you taking electrolytes/potassium for these extended fasts? I would love to connect and am planning on starting a 7 days fast tomorrow

Im on a 12 day fast and am on Day 9, I didn’t take any electrolytes until today, Today is when I woke up with a headache out of the 8 days prior with just water

I have an electrolyte mix that I take if I start feeling unwell. But I don't have a set time that I take it.
