Null's water fasting journey

Hi everyone, I am Nal
ive been struggling with my weight for last few years. my BMI used to be in normal range and within the last 2 years i have gained so much weight and currently i am over weight. well nearly obese. currently i weigh 157.4lbs. my height is 5.3’. actually at the end of this year june i weighed 169lbs. i saw these water fasting and dry fasting videos on youtube and gave dry fast a try upto this day 24 August 2020 i have lost 12 pounds with dry fasting. I started my dry fast aiming for 5 to 7 days but i could carry on for only 3 days. after that i ate normally for 2 days and again did dry fast. so now i’ve done 4 dry fasts of 3 days which is how i was able to lose 12 pounds.
so now i have started a water fast starting today. i am aiming for at least 7 days. i have still 30 pounds to lose since i wanna be in my normal BMI range. my target weight is 125lbs.
i found fast forward youtube videos very helpful and motivational. TBH i used to listen to the videos continuously until i felt asleep to avoid eating during my dry fast.
so i will be updating my updates of water fast daily on this forum …

i really need the help of you all to continue with this

Welcome to our community! We can’t wait to share your journey! Congratulations on your 12lb weight loss! Not everyone takes supplements but if you think it would be useful potassium, magnesium, and salt can help manage many of the fasting symptoms.

Be gentle with your body and good luck!

Hello Null ! So glad you joined, this forum has helped me so much !! I’m 5’3 and started at 240 so ugh … :cry:. I’m on day 10 of a water fast and the forum and utube videos have been the only thing that’s helped me !! I couldn’t get past 2 or 3 days for the longest time !! You can do this and get to 125!! That’s my goal number too :slight_smile: :four_leaf_clover:
