Day 1
Weight to drop : 50lbs
Remarks : I have been IF the last few weeks to prep for this water fast. My goal is to go until Feb 1st. I will share what herbal teas ive had. Im not sure if folks use herbal teas on their water fast. I plan to include herbal teas.
Way to go Joy!
Day 2
Weight to drop : 45lbs
Remarks : Today I am feeling ok. Its 6am. I rested much of the weekend and hope to get in more water and atleast 3 cups of herbal tea. I plan to have coffee when I begin to feel hungry. So far hunger isnt an issue however my mantra has been “i can have that another day” whenever I have a craving for flash of food. Im hoping to be more mindful about saying “I wont be eating that type of food but ill find a better version another day”. Im being mindful of my craving and hoping to start doing some research. Ive found that sometimes cravings feel like "ohh no ill never have this again…I hope by the end of this 15 days I will have examined the scientific and historical background of some of the foods im craving. I dont see this fast as just about weight but spiritual and about self control and self love. Thankful to be getting back to a healthier me but also a new me. The last two years have been so crazy and I hope to use this time to examine who I am, who I desire to be and how I will present that person to the world around me after first presenting it to myself GRATITUDE: 5 pounds down and my partners support.
Thank you so much Lavana!

Yes I do tras also and bone broth once in a while. I’m on a fast til feb 20 but reading your post maybe I should consider my first week IF makes more sense because I went all the way til 1 pm yesterday and ate. Today I plan to go further and keep it going up and up. I didn’t prepare for this but definitely helps me out with my fast thank you. Which teas are u drinking? I have a tea obsession lol the way people drink coffee. Anyways, the coffee idea is a great one. How are u drinking it though black? I can use tips lol I do like black coffee 
alrighty thanks so much I hope to see you drop by on my post and I look forward to reading yours again :)!!

Weight to drop : 40lbs
Remarks : Yesterday I felt great and got so much work done. When the night hit I felt the pains but just listened to my body that it was time to rest. Im hoping to get some melatonin to help with rest as I know my energy is wild due to the fast. Today im feeling great. Taking it slow and watching tv. GRATITUDE: Wisdom from my late 20s as I find myself resting in my early 30s!

Remarks : A gallon a day is the goal.
Day 6
Weight to drop: 32lbs
Remarks : Gratitude!
Day 7
Weight to drop: 31lbs
Remarks : *****Day 8-14 I will be offline and focused on journaling and taking in less screen time. I will be back feb 1 to let you all know the final result. *Be gentle with yourself. I find this works best with gentle care of self and slowing down if your life, career and family dynamics allows it. I also was noting my goals on another fasting space and added and extra 9 pounds to my goal there. For example here i have my goal set to 50 pounds on the other I wrote 59. I did this because i feel with fasting I would always like an extra 10 pounds that I use as my refeeding shift. Some get discouraged when they go back to eating healthier and gain back. The extra 9 pounds is me engaging with my body and goal with the knowledge that those extra 9 or 10 pounds is for my refeed and my reminder to be gentle and mindful with how and what I refeed with. This is so I do not disrupt my goal to be a life longer faster.
See you all in feb.
