Not taking anything anymore, only 1/2 tsp salt every morning with water

Week 3 = done, my weight is down to 128lbs though which is getting kinda low for me. I am planning on finishing at 31 days which would be a full month of fasting. Making a plan now for what i will be doing after the fast.

What do you do all day when fasting this long? I was always bored majority of the time, cooking and eating took a big portion of time up for me

Netflix, hanging out with friends & family mostly... dreaming about food too

Week 3 = done

So great! I will be fasting all march I think.... I have lost some benefits of the short fast because of eating fruits, even if I waited some time after breaking the fast, that was really not good. I try 1 month to stay very low carb and high meat.

Are you feeling somehow better already, or are you expecting result when you refeed?
Though weak, I was already feeling better while fasting.

Have you been doing enema? How are your guts?

It takes too much time, so I love fasting!
We can be reading anestesia books.... administrating a forum.... )

Well done, have you noticed the fast affecting your hormones/cycle anything negative at all?

I never have any issues with my gut so thats all good. My fatigue has improved a lot, went from sleeping 12 hours a day to 6 hours and feeling high on adrenaline. Not planning on doing any enemas

I might, not sure about that yet

You think this is histamine issue only? Reactions to fragrances seem to be more complex than this... I have some as well and think more about partially coming from liver detox issues.

Yeah maybe liver too, my liver has started to hurt aswell the past few days so maybe its some kind of detox reaction

 

[Shanks]

I'm no doc but the liver has no pain receptors so i think you can't say the liver has started to hurt or am i wrong?

Haha well, when i had ebv i had pain around my liver too. Thats what i mean with liver pain.

There's a ton of nerve clusters around the liver, so if the liver is swelling at all you can feel it. It's the reason why a punch to the liver is crippling.

When are you planning on ending the fast Nina?

 

[Canari]

Yes, and also all the fascias!

Can there be some bile accumulation? I had to take olive oil and lemon every morning at the end of my quite short fast...
I think fragrance sensitivity can be linked to methylation, and also liver detox, probably more about phase II.

Do you still have bowel movements, or did they stop? (a friend of mine got them during a 3 week fast! she was wondering where it came from!)
