A few months back I decide I was not going to eat unless I was hungry not out of habit. For some reason I just was not hungry for a few weeks. Made it over 24 2 or 3 times Got up to 44 hrs once before my wife insisted I needed to eat.


I have not done that in a while.


You can do it!!!

I did a 36 hour fast once a week back when first diagnosed with diabetes II. Doc didn't like the idea but I lost 25 lbs over 4 months and since then have only crept up about 10 of it. That was 9 years ago.


My fear of moving stairs is escalating!

Wow, I don't think I could do that. After about 48 hours I get pretty darn sick.


Gotta find a way, a better way, I'd better wait

Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not after you

I did 50hrs yesterday. It’s not that big a deal as long as you’re running on coffee and Copenhagen

Never got sick. Got a little light headed if I stood up too fast a couple of times. Food tastes pretty good after a fast

You want to plan it so your not doing any real hard work from day 3 on. Worst was when I had to cook for the boys.

I've been doing 20 hour fasts for the last couple weeks. I always feel better when I eat once a day. I used to fast for 7 days a couple times a year. After day three I wasn't hungry anymore and so long as I didn't over exert myself, I felt fantastic. Really had to be careful when breaking a long fast though, really easy to overdo it.

Watched a show where a guy with pretty high cholesterol fasted for 24 hrs twice a week for about six months. He was able to stay off of medication for his cholesterol to his Dr's surprise.

One day I was over at a friend's house on day 3 of the fast, he offered me a beer and I forgot I was fasting and about halfway through the beer I started to get a little sick feeling.

The first 48 are the hardest after that it gets easy.. not much like denying the natural man in us.

The first time I did a three day fast I ended it with about six doughnuts! Big mistake. Planning on starting a 96 hour starting this coming Monday, good for a metabolism reset!

If I can get past breakfast it’s easy, breakfast is the hardest for me as that’s when I take my pills.
