RE: I Quit Eating for 28 Days [Water Fast] : Day 8 (Focus)

in #health7 years ago

Dont forget to slowly introduce solid food back in. I hear you can get some serious pains if you eat too much too soon too quick.

My dinner meal tends to be SUPER high in fats and protein. I think thats the only reason why I can last 16+ hours without a snack. If instead I ate a ton of rice and vegetables, my morning energy would be very low. I've tried that one too.

The other thing I've noticed is that I have significantly less intestinal movements if I don't eat breakfast and lunch (uhhh how do i say this, i fart and poop much less). But Im still a once a day person. :p

Oh yes absolutely! I only intend to eat my first piece of solid food after 3 days of veggie shake refeeds! I have a whole list of things that I will be consuming to refeed which I think will be very interesting to see how my body reacts to!

I will be doing exactly that when I eat one meal a day! But a higher focus on fats, I like staying in deep states of ketosis.

You are absolutely right, if you rely on your glycogen stores as your main source of fuel you will suffer immensely.. I don't think I could make it 16+ hours while eatings too much carbs.
