>How do I fast/ safely do an extended fast? It's easy! Just DON'T EAT. Anything with calories will break your fast - consume artificial sweeteners and zero-calorie drinks such as black coffee/ tea, Diet Coke, etc. at your own discretion. If you're planning to fast for any longer than 72 hours, take your fucken' salts. Take Snake Juice*, or supplement electrolytes.
*SNAKE JUICE RECIPE: 2L Water 1tsp Potassium chloride 1tsp Sodium chloride ( OPTIONAL ): 1tsp Sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) - makes its taste less hellish, recommended for longer fasts. ( OPTIONAL ):1tsp Magnesium Mix and sip it throughout the day, don't drink all of it at once.
>What's IF/ OMAD/ ADF? IF = Intermittent Fasting; fasting daily with a shorter eating window. 16:8 (16 hour fast, 8 hour eating window) is the minimum cycle. Beginners should start with this and gradually work their way up to longer fasts through weekly intervals. OMAD = One Meal a Day, most commonly eaten within a one-hour maximum timeframe. ADF (OMEOD) = Alternate Day Fasting. Fast for a day, eat for another, repeat. >What are rolling 48s/72s/96s? Rolling 48s entail fasting for 48 hours following a meal, refeeding (within a one-hour window), and repeating. It's the same senitment with rolling 72s/ 96s/ etc. It's recommended to refeed at your TDEE or higher with a low-carb and high-protein/fat content meal.
( Extra ) >How much weight will I lose per week? It's dependant on your TDEE and stats; for each respective day you fast, you expend your TDEE. Universally, one pound of fat is 3500kcals. (TDEE x average days fasted per week) / 3500 = lbs lost per week. Divide by 2.205 to convert to kilos. TDEE CALCULATOR: tdeecalculator.net/

>refeed woth grilled chicken and a salad after 96 hours fast >shit a humongous log 1 hour after the meal what does this mean? do i have a fast metabolism
I don't use an app. just take note of when my last meal was and count the hours in my head. I'm never going longer than a few days though so it's easy for me. I don't fast that often either

>72 hour snake juice fast >break fast with turkey burgers, cauliflower and a bottle of red wine >wake up feeling like garbage Thought fasting was supposed to make you feel good…
I only use myfitnesspal to estimate the macros for refeeds

Last night I had a dream where I kept going to th supermarket to buy Doritos. I did it like three times. And I kept thinking to myself "oh God why? I'm doing so good with my diet. I need to stop". But then I woke up and realized I didn't break my fast :). Day 3 here. Feel pretty good. Got work and then going to the club tonight.

I'd like to make a habit of fasting on Sundays. What can I do to like, not be distracted by food?
Gabriel Foster
Literally be somewhere that food is not and be doing something that is not food related. Take right now, for instance. I feel hungry so I am going to go swing the axe again.
