Great job! :clap: :clap: :clap:

It’s all about building that fasting muscle. When I finished prepping my body for prolonged fasts, my first one was 4 days long so you did better than me!

Round 2; So this is the second week that I want to start fasting again. I think I want to go to Friday again and perhaps make this a pattern for the rest of the month but lets see. I kinda know what to expect so I hope Friday will come quickly.

I feel good and ready to roll. lets do this!

Thanks @Cassandra_G. I’ll post an update.

Dear Fasting Family!

I hope everyone is well and kicking it!

Following my post on the 8th of June, I only fasted 3 days. I was trying to get a more holistic view in trying to get by boys fitter as well as me.

I changed my tactics. I began doing long walks and then eventually jogs. I would walk and my boys (who are teenagers) would go on their bikes along side me. This way I would get them off the computer too.

My kitchen cupboard is still junk food free. We’ve replaced the sugar with stevia. cereal with granola, and just less carb foods. Much more veg and meat in my diet. All a win for me here.

In terms of fasting im on the 16/8 protocol. I want to do another water fast soon but not sure when. Meanwhile, at the time of writing this post, I’ve jogged 4 times a week for the last 4 weeks roughly 5k at a time. I joined the gym 10 days ago and I’m enjoying that too. I feel a million percent better and look it now too. my weight is 124.5 (which is down 10KG since the begining of May) which is making people notice… and yep I take every compliment. If they say anything i say “hey look at me! lol”.

I came off from posting here to focus on building a following on my Instagram @somalistudent which is a bit of fun for me as well as speaking to the community about questions I get asked. I’ve enjoyed it. check it out if you wanna see what I get up to.

I want get back on here though, I remember the energy of this forum really helped me ignite my new change in direction - You guys made me feel so welcome and that I’m not alone on this journey. It means more than you all realise, a kind gesture that I’ve been reaping it’s fruit ever since.

So that’s my update so far. Love you all. lets keep it pushing! Hi 5!
