So I had planned on starting a 21 day water fast yesterday, and I failed miserably. That being said, its 7pm today and I’m going strong. So today is day 1!! I have minimal hunger pangs and im feeling really good. I am going to take this one day at a time. I’ll post here everyday that I continue. I’m 26 years old and weigh 232 pounds. I’m hoping to reach 150 eventually. Ive struggled my entire life with binge eating and yoyo dieting. After having my two girls, its become even harder to shred these pounds. I have severe anxiety somedays and depression isn’t far behind. Social anxiety is a b**ch.
I’m an Advanced EMT and have a pretty physical job while working so I’m hoping I do well the longer I go. Happy fasting everyone, I’m so happy to be here.

Was your last bite at 7?
My last meal was yesterday at 11pm 
so I’m around 21 hours now!
I have social anxiety too, it’s the worst. Although I have to say, it makes fasting a whole lot easier when you don’t have to answer to anybody, lol.
Your determination is half the battle 
Like you said, just take it day by day, hour by hour, minute by minute. That’s the only way to get through it.
I’m finishing up day 1. Im feeling low on energy but I know thats bc my body doesn’t have any carbs/sugar readily available. Today is my last day at work for a whole week which gives me a good break and time to rest (even if it may be impossible with two kiddos). Work has been very demanding the past 3 weeks and im so exhausted. 
Anyways, I’m so optimistic and ready for day 2.
