3-Day Water Fast | I Ate Nothing & Here's What Happened

Рет қаралды 514,585

Күн бұрын

I did a 3 day water-only fast, eating nothing and drinking water. This is my experience of prolonged intermittent fasting and why I do these prolonged fasts every 2-3 months. We'll cover some of the science of prolonged fasting, including ketosis, autophagy, and more.

I’m at the end of my first ever 72 hour fast, and feel fine 🤷🏻‍♂️. Word of advice: DON’T TELL PEOPLE. People lose their minds and can’t wrap their heads around the concept, so just keep it to yourself and save yourself the time, energy, stress and aggro

I do this once a month every month and it always has wonderful benefits ❤ I always look younger and loose a few pounds once it’s over. The bloating of my stomach goes down. Yes then do keto only diet once eating starts back up. I lost 30 pounds within 4 months doing this when I was younger. Now that I’m 51 it’s harder to loose weight but the fasting still helps cleanse your organs and helps reduce inflammation pain. I never get hunger pains. The water makes me feel full.

I was one of the hardcore skeptics about waterfasting. Long story short, I tried it out. First time only lasted 2 days, I'm sure my body was really stunned at what was going on. 2nd try, it went through 4 days and I only stopped because I had a family gathering (not eating would be considered as sinful as a genocide). It was amazing really. I decided to try it just for weight loss (fat, not muscles) and I didn't expect all the other benefits. I focused better on my job, zero hunger (past 36 hours into the fast), and get this, my skin began to get smoother and the few acnes I had immediately gone poof. Like no acne for months now (I usually get at least 2 acnes monthly). Have fasted for a total of 6 times with average of 4-5 days, and I do it once if not twice a month now. For those interested in the weight loss, it also did me wonder. After 3 months, about 14 kg (mostly fat I'm sure) was dropped. And there are some studies that show fasting doesn't decrease your metabolism, so much much better control after hitting the body weight/fat percentage target. Basically, like ketogenic in principle but for a dude like me who can't be bothered to prep proper meals. Fitness level? Oh damn sure Im fitter than ever, even gained strength in my lifting exercise. Carbs? I do still eat them but definitely not as much as I did before, this definitely gave a reboot to my past horrible appetite.

It all comes down to calories out vs in. Bone broth "breaks a fast" but not for long, you easily burn through those calories and very quickly since you're not taking anything else in. You literally HAVE to burn your fat stores when you need 2000 (at least) calories per day just to function. 40 damn calories of bone broth does not hurt a fast.

Hindus have been fasting for more than 3500 years before the quran was written. Now it doesn’t seem to be so special. Why do Hindus fast? According to the scriptures, fasting helps create a blissful bonding between “individual spirit” and “The Supreme Spirit - The God”. The aim of observing fast is to purify the body and mind to acquire divine grace. For the last thousand years, most Hindus celebrate fasting. • To develop God-awareness or become closer to God. • To purify the mind and body. • To celebrate rituals or religious festivals. • To boost stamina and to nourish physical health for long life. • To train the mind and to strengthen the body to endure and to face difficulties and not to give up.

I have really bad MCAS and everything I eat causes lip, throat, and/or throat swelling and the only thing that helps is prolonged fasting. The only problem is that when I get to day 3-4 my blood sugar drops to dangerously low levels and I need to consume something small. I'm not diabetic. Why is this happening? I've been trying to complete a 7 day fast to see if I can do an immune reset, but the same thing happens every time. Doctors are of no help. I lost a lot of weight because I was hardly able to eat for months. I started to feel a little better and gained weight back and feel it's a good time to try to do a prolonged fast again as I'm at the point again where I can't eat anything without swelling. Do you have any suggestions on avoiding the blood sugar drop? I've been doing electrolytes. I don't know what else to do. It's been almost a year of dealing with this crap and I'm so tired of it.

I stopped looking at the clock too much or any kind of timer when i fast because it tended to make me shift my focus to when i was going to be "done" rather than just existing in the current time. Time goes by either way but something about looking at timers has that whole watching a pot boil effect (for me) what ive done lately is after dinner i go to sleep like normal than in the morning when i wake up i count that time as when my fast starts so in my head im thinking 36 hrs from now and if i break it a few hours early its actually been over 36 hrs. I noticed when i pay attention to the time its too easy to rationalize maybe stopping it a few hours short so i have to trick myself haha

I did my first 7 day fast a couple months back. Coffee only, plus electrolytes as mentioned. Went well. Will probably do again, perhaps longer. I approached it by reminding myself up front I was trying to improve my health, not jeopardize it; to that end, I would be mindful of how I felt, and resolve to end the fast at any time if I started feeling off.

Nearly at the end of a 3 day fast. If it wasn't for weight training making me exhausted I could probably do longer. The issue is you want to do weight of training during a fast as to prevent muscle loss (I suspect it's more important on a longer, 3+ day fast, but it's still worth it). Still, I want to eat something healthy and nutritious. This is the beauty of fasting. So long as you can have willpower to not instantly want to end it with a treat, it helps you crave regular food, and not junk food.
