Decided not to go another night. I thought it over and I figured it just snack onf some kraut, salad, and Greek yogurt and let that digest slowly overnight. Didn’t want to take it too much closed to the Thanksgiving. Might try for a 7 day fast in a few months.
That’s some commitment and will power. How was the experience?
Well it’s my 4th big fast like this so I’m kinda used to it now. The hardest part is always the habit over the hunger. I can just ignore the hunger but it’s just so ingrained into you habit to eat at certain times and during certain activities. Like I sit down to watch a show and I just want to be eating dinner or something. Even sleeping isn’t that hard though I will note I tend to wake up in the middle of the night more alert than normal. I just take like half of a 1mg melatonin pill and go back to sleep though. Only felt a little bad one day because I went ham on my treadmill and did like 5 miles because I was listening to a Proles pod interview with Grover Furr and I only listen to that stuff when I treadmill so I was motivated to keep going until I finished it. I went too long though and threw my electrolytes out of balance so I felt kind shitty for a bit but I got recovered after a while and was fine.
