    Got my water with me sitting next to my husband who is eating fried catfish, cole slaw, green beans and hush puppies. It looks and smells good but I am not even tempted.

    I was sitting beside my son who was eating a foot long sub and it was one of my favorites and then my husband was eating the left over beef stew fom last night and I was very very very tempted but I just sat there drinking my water!!!

    I used to water fast with no problems but now my body is saying NO because when I do it I can't sleep and I am getting really dizzy and weak the next day. So no more for me!!!

    I broke my fast at 8:15 this morning with my chocolate kale shake. My fast ended up being 59 hours.

    I've was in so much pain since Friday night and I think it was a kidney stone so I drank lots and lots of water over the weekend along with food and today the pain is gone :)

    How did you feel?

    I'm considering One meal a day, every other day - for a kick start of sorts, once I'm settled into the lifestyle. This would be easy for me to accomplish on keto, because hunger is just not an issue. It is more about eating to supply nutrients.

    Another alternative: Have changed religions and we are supposed to fast before worship (I'm a newbie and still learning). The acceptance and insistence upon fasting was actually an attraction! So, I'm considering a weekly 24 hour water fast worship day to really clean my system and clear the mind.

    You are killing it, congrats!

    I'm just astonished at your REAL LIFE before and after pictures!

    You have definitely been an inspiration to regain my college body and energy level again!
