I started today! And was aiming for 20 days so I’m signing up

I’ll be on day 6 tomorrow but I’m in for 21 days thru October 26th.

I have a halloween dinner party planned so needed to begin my refeed a few days before the end of the month.

Have you stocked up on water? Will you be doing pure water or coffee and tea?

I lose crazy when I stick to pure water. I’m down 15lbs already but I expect this speed to trickle out to a pound a day or half a day in the next week.

I’d love to see somewhere in the 150’s by the fast end and no more than 162 after a 10 day refeed.

@Miramar Do you see differences in loss if you add even coffee? Asking “for a friend”

I wonder how much I can lose 20 days… starting 81 kg, 178 lbs apparently. 170 pounds = 77 kg and that would be suuupercool!

Edit: Just realized, 20 days is ~ 3 weeks. 8 pounds (4 kg) should definitely be possible…

When I was doing the 5 day fasts I started doing some tea and coffee. I was still losing but it seemed like it slightly slowed and I had to be careful as I can go nuts drinking a lot and I feel like the extra caffeine may have been stripping me of nutrients?

I wasn’t talking any vitamins though so…

spull · October 10, 2020, 6:39pm

@Miramar I get that. Could be true… I don’t know the physiology, but caffeine is dehydrating so could be a link there. I don’t drink much, 1 cup / day and no problems staying at that level-ish.

Interesting that you felt like it slowed down though. Pure water is best I guess…

Miramar · October 10, 2020, 6:43pm

If you can stick with one cup then go for it!

I drink up to 2 cups of homemade cold brew or I can drink ice tea all day and it’s almost never enough.

I have a lot of italian fizzy water. I’ll be jumping on that when I get sick of spring water.

Ines, did you link this on the Facebook group?

chelsea_rhodes · October 10, 2020, 7:27pm

I’m planning to do a 21 day as well on the 11th and I’d love to be one of your accountability buddies! I definitely need one too lol

Miramar · October 12, 2020, 12:39pm

Good morning!

I’m on day 7.

I had a rough evening, but I’m feeling better this morning.

There was an acid stomach issue. I don’t do well with acv for that so I had a shot of pickle juice and a mild antacid.

Then my lower back was hurting - and I started thinking it was like a pms or ovaries thing. My cycle cut out on me August 12th.

Anyway I took some ibuprofen. Figured I’d already taken the antacid pills.

Feeling better this morning but it was a long night of waking up and discomfort.

Anyway this has been my most extreme weight loss ever. 19lbs in 6 days. Day 7 just got started.
