Hope everyone is feeling well! I’m over halfway through day 3, and starting to feel weak but also appreciating how my mind is becoming a bit more clear. My family has expressed some dismay at my decision to fast through the holiday weekend, but I’m excited and feeling great about the decision— I hope they’ll understand.
Hope you all have a nice holiday weekend! Stay strong, if you want to.

Yeah, day 3 is when your glycogen reserve get exhausted and you get into ketosis.
I usually add a teaspoon of sea salt in 1 gallon of water and drink that as well as taking a multivitamin
The first time I did an extended fast taking a mineral supplement helped me a lot

Joining a couple days late but have been fasting since the first and am planning on going 21 days! Also not my first fast. 16 days has been my longest.
I’ve been on this forum for over a year. This will be the first time joining an accountability group other than the zoom calls I NEVER am on Facebook and am so thrilled to have this option!

Hope everyone is doing well!
I broke my fast over the weekend; a combination of exhaustion (lots of hard work outside in the hot afternoon hours this weekend, helping loved ones with house/yard projects), female hormones, and the glycogen crash ~3 days into the fast. I understand why I decided to eat, and I’m still committed to fasting this month. Re-starting my 21 day fast today, and am looking forward to sharing the journey with you all.

Welcome back Jewell! For me 4th to 6th day are bad mainly because ketones spike really high and it takes a bit to get acquainted to it. Especially the lack of sleeping is annoying but with some magnesium and reducing caffeine after 12pm I get by

Thanks for the tips, @fabryxy! Do you find your sleep becomes more normal as you continue past 6 days, or do you just get more accustomed to disrupted sleep? 
Starting today, aiming for 21 days.

Usually from day 3 to 6 or 7 I have a little trouble staying asleep. I mitigate that with Melatonin and Magnesium. From day 8 or 9 I sleep a little better and I do require less hours then usual.

Hope you all have been able to stick with the water fast. Can you share your ketones level after day 3?
Thank you
Hi all. Just a quick update from my side.
Still fasting and is getting easier. Hunger pains were gone for a while and now even psychologically is much easier to handle. The worst days for me were the first 6/8 days until my electrolytes found their new homeostasis.
I do take mutivitamin and electrolytes every morning and melatonin and magnesiu to sleep.
Twice a week I take fisetin and quercetin
My ketones level stabilized around 6.
Hope you all are doing great
