Swetha's march water fast journey

I have started fasting at 10pm on Feb 29th. This is the first time I’m fasting on a Sunday. I always used Sunday as an excuse to give up 3 or 4 days fast or bingeeat on sundays. I’m grateful to all of u for doing this together. This is my first day. Very happy to do it on Sunday and feel positive to make it happen. So far it’s good. I want to keep electrolytes from beggining. A gram of salt, a gram of cream of tartar and teaspoon of ACV in a bottle of chilled water.

Decided to sleep by 9pm. Had some hunger. Have some dragging aches in legs. This the main thing I hate. I will see how will be tomorrow and will up my electrolytes.

Feel good in morning. I din’t watch the daily update by Yasemen. Which was about self discipline… I thought I wud need more motivation about self discipline in the evening when I get home from work. So I deliberately kept it for my evening. I just wanna watch some videos to keep me on track. The thought that 300 plus members are fasting is another motivator for me to get past the initial days. I got my chums too . . I just hope things will be under my control. I took biotin. And same a gram of salt and cream of tartar in water to sip till evening.

You’re doing good. Keep it up !

Cudnt keep up the fast. I failed. I could not keep my mind away of some/ any food I cud eat. I have deprived myself of so many foods since October 15 2019. I definitely got better control than I was earlier. But I’m failing at extended fasts. I don’t know how to get better control. Will being omad keto help! I’m so sorry. Dont want to be a spoiler. But I’m honest and I failed again

This was happening to me a lot and I found ADF very helpful in getting me back on track.
Try not to be to hard on yourself, you can always start again.

This always happens to me, but this time Im determined to end this fast. What I did was take a picture of myself which I hate how I look and thats what will keep me going.

If you can’t fast, or aren’t currently fasting, you can at least eat in a healthier way.
First, stop eating sugar in any form. That will get you a long way in the direction you want to go.

U guys are right. I was thinking too much about it and stressing. That’s y I cudnt take my mind off food. I have cut down sugar a lot. But now I feel I shud have been on proper keto or keto omad before starting the big event. I dint do it. I ate carbs and everything of whatever I wanted though was not too much. As u said I will try to make a proper refeed. So that this won’t repeat again. My goal still remains … to lose 20 pounds. Will make it. I won’t make any immediate promises but will take easy and do keto omad.
