I am joining for a 7 day water fast to detox my body and feel better mentally. My aim is not to lose weight but reconnect with my inner strenght and self.

Today is day 2. It has been relatively easy so far.
I did a 7 day fast two years ago and I remember struggling then. I am not this time. It feels manageable.
I cut sugar out of my diet 6 months ago and I feel this may be helping…

Day 3 has been fine. Just felt a little tired towards the end of the day so I am having an early night!
Today is day 5. Not hungry but feeling tired and light headed.
All my body movements are slower than normal.
7 day water fast completed.
I must admit I felt pretty week the last couple of days, with difficulties breathing.
I am quite thin to start with and this fast made me loose too much weight I think. I took pictures this morning and could see my ribs protruding. Not good. But a great cleanse!

Congratulations on achieving your goal! 
Since you’re slender the next time you may want to limit it to 5 days. Research scientists and doctors I follow like Dr Chachin Panda of the Salk Institute and Dr Peter Attia themselves limit their maintenance fasts to 5 days. For Dr Panda he does it once a year, for Dr Attia he does it every quarter. Just a suggestion.
