I’ve gone 7 days a few times but bever this long. Crazy how you dont really get hungry after 4 or 5 days. Any way, couldnt get into my biggest britches and have found this is the easiest way to shed 25 lbs. It will take 8 or 9 months to put it back on. Vicious cycle.

I go as far in the day as possible and than only eat fruits that combine. https://www.graciemag.com/en/gracie-diet/ No snacks and eat just twice a day.

I found it easy to do and that and watching what I was eating and swimming 3 times a week, I lost 30 lbs in 3 months. A1c dropped to 6.5 My fear of moving stairs is escalating!

I beleive he could drink water after sundown but that was it. Give me a fish, I will eat for a day. Teach me to fish, I will eat for a lifetime
