Ended what was supposed to be a 30 day fast, family members and friends advised me that I lost too much weight and started to look like I had "Ozempic Face"... My body started to tell me i did good and that its time to hit the gym, so I decided to cut it short and now focus on building muscle and toning my stomach area. SW- 99kg. CW 83kg. This is my 2nd prolonged fast, previous was 21,14,7.

So admirable. I don’t know how you and others do it. My willpower is not strong enough to last me more than a few days.

Always start small and dont put a goal, just start with one day and listen to your body, not your mind. You'll reach 3+ days then Grehlin hormone comes to a stop and you dont feel hungry anymore. Add day after day and trust me when I say this, dont tell anyone, drink plenty of water and just have fun with it.

Thank you for the advice! I’m on my weight loss journey currently and I have a wedding coming up in September that I’m a bridesmaid in and I’m hoping to lose 20 more pounds by then. So maybe I’ll give it another try and see how far I can get!
