Onto Day 2 today. Pretty easy so far, drinking tons of water. Nothing to report as of yet!

Well done, you!
I’m halfway through day 3 and just very grateful that the dreaded day 2 is over. Keep going, girl!

Onward to Day 3! After work, I plan to keep myself busy by laying out on the patio and reading (The Obesity Code came in today!), revising my French, practicing piano, and as always, incessantly cleaning. Today feels okay, took my salt and sucking it up.

Today is Day 4! Why does it feel like I’ve lived this day a million times over? Somehow I feel less excited about fasting days where they aren’t a new record, even though every successful fasting day is something to celebrate.
Still planning to fast to the end of the month. Today I’m working on my plan for September, and working around planned refeeds for my birthday!

Great job Shay! I’m on day 3 today and it’s so weird that I had just completed a 9 day and all of a sudden I’m back to day 3… time goes so quick ! You are correct, every fasting day is a success !!!

Day 5 today. Bleh, in bed all day, skipped work as I was feeling exhausted. Just trying to sleep it off. May have some vegetable broth if it doesn’t fix up.

Feel better soon!
You are likely detoxing. Keep on the water and let some autophagy take over.

Today’s Day 7. Yesterday I spent all day in bed with PMS, didn’t see the light of day. I think I’ll be going in for a refeed this evening and then immediately starting another 7 day fast. Excited for September - will start a new journal.

I couldn’t fast during PMS. I can get by with OMAD. You’re so strong for listening to your body and sticking to your goals!

I can change the title of this journal if you’d like. Just let me know.

Strange day to start a Day 1 but at least it’s a Monday? This is my last entry for August. Today will likely be smooth sailing, my goal is to get to bed without eating. I’ll busy myself with every chore ever.
See you in September!
