Day 4. Feeling pretty good. Yet, days 4 and 5 are the days I typically fold. Odd, itās not due to hunger or weakness etc., itās always pressure or expectations from a family member and/or event. There really isnāt a lot of support or acceptance regarding fasting. I find that I frequently use the excuse that I donāt feel well in order to decline food/ which is not at all true. Itās just easier than the truth. Pressing on.

Well done @molly_gonzales on day 4 . I can understand, hiding seems much more easy than causing them to concern and worry. Hopefully once this is all done you will have a celebration to urself with the amount of days you went on, the struggles u had to tackle ie temptations and the benefits of what fasting gave to you , and be like you know Iām glad I did this and proud. A big pat on the back xš ā¦ and maybe u could prove to someone in ur family that this is actually a good beneficial thing ā¦just maybe x .your doing so so well !

Day 1 finished. On to middle of day 2 . Its so hard oh my, also this anxiety is crippling but Iām trying very hard to deal with it - this is where I take a look at what food I have and eat to distract my mind. But to be honest eating only distracts me for a short while then Iām back to my emotions. I am glad Iām being strict on myself. This journey is really about me controlling myself and gaining discipline. 6 hours until day 2 finishes x

Feeling pretty rough today. Iām on day 5/7. I feel super sick, and really stiff all over. Any advice? Iāve been using salt, taking magnesium, drinking loads of water, but nothing seems to be shifting it.

@Sol_Baldi, I suffer from major insomnia when I fast too. Even on Day 1.
The only thing that knocks me out is 50mg of Benadryl or diphenhydramine. Or sometimeā¦ it doesnāt work at all for me.
I just have to ride along the wave of insomnia and understand that my body just has too much energy because thereās no food to burn.
The one thing that I am grateful for is that after a restless night, I still have loads of energy to function for work.
Hope you get some sort of rest soon.

Today I had moments were I went a little blank just for a few seconds . Took some himalayan salt that helped me so much. Trying take it slow especially moving. 5 more hours till day 3 done x

Thanks @ashi_bt Iām sure it is just all the nasties leaving my system. Iām going to try to power through. Lots of places in England that sell electrolyte power suitable for fasting are closed and wonāt open until 15th due to Corona, so Iāll scour the internet and see what I can find.
