How skinny is skinny? Like, say someone is 5'4 and 130 pounds. Would that be skinny?

Yeah don't fast for more than a day or 2 if you weight that much. It could be fatal without doctor supervision.

Currently planning on doing a water fast for one day next week to see how it goes. Because it's a waking day, it'll be close to 36 hours, and it's probably going to be torturous for me.

But if I can pull it off, it'll be helpful, and might give me the strength to try a longer purge. Who knows until I try?

getting some bouts of heartburn but I understand that

I'll be ending somewhere around 8 or 9pm today.

woooo

I sorta asked that half-heartedly. Thought it'd at least be good enough for 3 days. But at least I get to stop before it supposedly gets difficult.

I mean, if you feel fine, go for it. Just check your heart rate. If it elevates a lot, I'd stop immediately.

so how do you feel, corrik

Great. I ate completely fine like I never even did anything. My weight was 243 prior - 227 after. But, that's deceiving as I was about 231 about 5 days prior, but I did eat a lot those 5 days prior to going into the fast with Easter and all.

Ate a Sheetz Quesarito for the big meal after the 5 days lol.

Last day! Woke up feeling a lil light headed . Definitely shouldn't do this more than this. And yea I can feel my legs starting to tighten now. Hunger definitely wasn't bad yesterday and so far today neither

I slip in and out of a "state " but idk I wouldn't say it's euphoric, nor is it bad either.

Just a state

Like Oklahoma

Also I pooped again

And it's not a normal one it's small

But yea I guess I had some stuff inside me that I'm finally purging or something

I haven't pooped in over a week, but that's not abnormal for me either so.

I'm calling it

My abdominal area started cramping up and I got REALLY light headed in the shower

but hey, my last meal was monday. I'm still giving myself the 5 days then Lol

ate an orange. Just needed something

probably a mental thing but I felt really better immediately, it was like magic

Yeah it's more you know what you are doing than your actual body sometimes haha.

not fancy but my meal was mashed potatoes and ramen. I was afraid to go out in my car.

I'll run errands tomorrow and pick up something special

alright so I actually think alot more clearly now, its really weird. Looking back maybe things were foggy. This definitely was a reset

most astonishing of all

well, when I started having problems back in December, my blood pressure rose to 200

since I have been on my meds, it averages 130 or below

...its now 100

it wasn't like that a week ago, ...this is either a miracle or a scare LOL

but yea man, this shit fixes you, you body really does reset in a bunch of ways

If not pooping for a week is normal for you, then you need to do a cleanse. Id recommend Whole30. Youll poop a lot and feel great.

yea that slipped by

not pooping for a week sounds like its another problem, man

After a bit of a disaster yesterday, I chose to do my water fast today. It's been about 24 hours since I put anything other than water in me.

...I don't think I can make it through dinner and I have something tonight, so I'm going to eat and try to do my full waking day Tuesday.

I go 20+ days without pooping sometimes (often).

Multiple doctors have said they have no concerns over it. *shrug*

20 fucking days without taking a dump!?! I think I average like twice a day...

Please do a cleanse. I will do it with you.

yea, fast is down, do a cleanse now! couldn't hurt

I'm going on vacation in 4 days lol. And I am not backed up. I don't eat much. Doctor said I could eat fiber more if I want to go more often but said nothing else. I assumed the lack of disposal was a possibility for why I am not skinnier, but he was like naw. You good, bruh.

Sometimes when I go to a restaurant I have to go now like now instantly. And other times I go weeks haha. And sometimes I have to go and if I don't go fast enough the feeling goes away and a week goes by lol.

Usually when I gotta go now now now if I don't go right away I start to get super sweaty/cold and shaky until I go. It's weird. Doctors aren't concerned though so who knows. All my numbers are fine. And colonoscopies are always clear besides my initial that had a benign polyp. It's easy as hell to prep for a colonscopy believe me. (Done 3 now(

also, what does that entail, DC?

do you gotta buy something?

You'll have to meal prep and watch what you eat for 30 days, basically.

There is 0.0% chance I am ever doing that lol.

Chicken
Steak
Eggs
Asparagus
Potatoes
Broccoli
Green Beans
Bunch of fruit and vegatables

Basically all that I ate for 30 days. Stick to olive oil/avocado oil. And if you need butter only ghee is allowed. If you need ketchup just make sure it doesn't have sugar in it. Water and black coffee. You can have juice but you have to read the labels. Chipotle has the salad bowl with carnitas/chicken that is Whole30 friendly. And if you have an In-&-Out neaSr you - Protein Style Burger with no cheese and sauce.

I feel great. I slept like a Chevy truck last night and got a hell of a lot done today. I really needed a soft reset like that. I don't think a hard reset like you guys did would work for me and I'd of course need to talk to my doctor if I were to do that.

Thinking I hold off on the full waking day until I'm feeling sluggish again. It may be that I need to do this every few weeks - just a cleanse of 36 hours to get rid of buildup.
