Lorena's 15 or 21 days

My first day will be tomorrow (27.10.2019)
Starting weight 60kg.
Goal weight 50kg.
I will be consuming water, matcha tea, with squeezed lemon, magnesium. I am nervous because I messed up my last progress and I am again starting. I am currently studying and doing exercise but I am scared to feel tired and fail.
I used to be thin but since I moved here, France, I have been dealing with my weight. I gained 10 kg in 1 year, I don’t feel comfortable about myself.
In December it’s my sister’s wedding. I want to feel good with myself again, have a good relationship with food, no more anxiety, wear the clothes that I used to wear before and smile. I need support, that’s why I am here.

Don’t do anything strenuous exercising. For myself I limit myself to walking on a daily basis usually around 1 to 2 miles. Especially if you don’t have much experience exercising while doing a prolonged fast.

I had to restart again so this is my first day. Sometimes I am scared to fail so I really appreciate the support given here. I am at the university, sometimes I feel hungry sometimes but I have been drinking water and being positive.
Today I have training but I will take it slowly.

Thank you so much for your support. Today was pretty good, I am not going to lie that I hesitated to postpone my water fasting for another day but I got right back on the horse. I am not weighing myself every day but I took as reference the weight after breaking the fast (I don’t know if this value is right).
The week coming is pretty busy, exams and long days.
Thank you!

DAY 4: :white_check_mark:
I had so much energy in the morning but in the afternoon I almost break my fast, it was because I was very stressed out but I didn’t do it and anyway, I wasn’t hungry.
At home, I added pink salt in hot water and I felt better

It gets easier from day 5 onwards. Is this your first prolonged fast? Be sure to check in with yourself regularly throughout the day, I have noticed the symptoms of low electrolytes tend to sneak up on me and I suddenly feel low in energy/mood or waves of nausea (despite hunger pangs having dissipated) but sipping some water with salt through the day (I take a thermos to work to keep it cold) and pink Himalayan salt ease these symptoms quickly.

I did one in the past for almost 7 days but I wasn’t studying, no stress, light work out. Today I am feeling really tired, sleepy, I fell asleep in class. However, I am not hungry but I feel I need energy to do all my activities (study, light work out, sleep etc…) today I could still fasting but I need energy to performance everything very efficiently so I will do 2 refeeds per week (OMAD in the middle of the week and Sunday). I already created the menu and I will break my fast tonight.
I want to try this method and I will tell you how it goes :blush::muscle:
