remember when I was so sick? I wish that you had believed me
eating under my cal limit >>>>>>
i didn't really like fasting and found it a bother in the beginning, but the more I practiced, found what worked for me n what made it easier, the more progress that I made and the more addicting it got.
If done right, I can get to a fast of 16 to 18 hours with no issue, even 24 with a little push. Once doing 24h fasts become as easy as the 16 to 18 hours one, I'll try to push for maybe 30 hours or so.
omg I'd be so skinny then :sob:
I'd burn like 2K cals on my lazier days and 12K-15K on my more active days, but like 5K to 8K on an average
In an ideal world 1 step would = 1 cal burned
Don't reward yourself with food, you're not a pig
I hate myself for struggling w/ a b.e.d. for so long and not trying to get better out of stubbornness
If worrying abt my weight/body could burn calories >>>>>>>>>>
Liquids will be a life saver. Water, coffee, energy drinks, sugar free sodas will help you feel like you're consuming something and give you maybe a few calories that your body can work with and still function.
Sleep. What usually helps me with my fasts is to start my fast after dinner. I usually eat between 6 and 8 PM, so I then feel full and have less the need to snack on things. I go to bed at around midnight and wake up the next day at like 9, so I'm already a solid 12 to 13 hours in. I'm not rlly a breakfast person and only start to get hungry at around noon, and by then I get to 14 to 17 hours.
Keep yourself busy. I noticed it was easier for me to get to my 24h fast in a day where I had 2 classes of 3 hours. By the time I got back to my dorm and my bf and I decided to get dinner, it was close to the time we had dinner the day before.
Remember why you're doing it.
gang i used an app and if i eat around 700 cals everyday until my bday, I'll get to 60kg (130lbs). It's not my GW, but still a solid way better than were I'm at now
The feeling after fasting for more than 12 hours >>
