Waking Up Day 3 Water Fast

in #waterfast8 years ago (edited)

Good morning Steemians!

Today is Day 3 of my water fast. I've been fasting for about 63 hours at this moment, and will complete 3 whole days (72 hours) at 4:30 PM this afternoon.

Waking up this morning was ok, but getting out of bed was truly a chore. It was more difficult than any other day so far. I felt a complete lack of energy until I drank some water. I chugged what water was beside my bed, probably 2 cups. I think I'm definitely in ketosis right now, because it seems that my body is eating itself. This was the whole idea.

I can feel my heartbeat in my chest more pronounced than I used to. No eye boogers, again. No headache, either. I think I'm totally over my caffeine addiction.

Still don't feel hungry. It's weird, by now I was sure I would be really hungry. Not the case.

Going to see how I feel after 5 complete days, which will be Tuesday, July 25, at 4:30 PM and see if I should stop or go on to 7 days.

Oh, today is my birthday! I am 28! I feel old lol.

I'll give you guys an update on Day 3 at around 5:00 PM this afternoon.

Thanks for stopping by!

Congratulations @vegansilverstack, both for your endurance and your birthday!

Thank you! I appreciate that :)

Happy Birthday! And agreed its pretty strange how you dont feel hungry but a nice feeling at the same time

Yes, I might do some shorter fasts more often, like eat 2 days fast 1 or 5:2

For myself I try and do intermittent fasting, eating for 12 hours on and 12 off at a minimum or 10 on 14 if my schedule permits. I have had great success with this

I pretty much do this all the time, except sometimes I eat after 7. :D

Great update and Happy Birthday!

Thank you! That's nice of you!

Hehe no, nothing to do with religion.

don't push yourself too hard we still need you on steemit ^^

Happy Birthday!!! Have a little present for you! ;)

The water challenge is insane! Keep on posting about the results! I try to achieve ketosis for my fat on a different way, but this is another story :D


I see it is not working at the moment. Some others will take his place ;)

Yeah I'm waiting on him to help me out lol

Thanks man! That was nice of you!

Enjoy it, it is my new project. 3 people receive bote votes from me. You have your birthday today, so you already have a plus point ;)

There will be some smaller bots coming by, as they have been summoned earlier ;)

Thank you man, that's so nice of you!

randowhale is in ;)

Happy Birthday once again. Hope you have fun today :D

Thank you man! That was super nice of you :) I did have a great day!

Looking Good!
Sinuses drained, and hunger gone. Rest when you can, deeper sleep will return when you start eating again.
(Tip: keep the TV off if you have one)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! 🎉

Thank you! I actually got pretty good sleep last night!

Wish I could day "I think I'm totally over my caffeine addiction." - Bigtime addict here ... might try the program!

You don't have to water fast to get over caffeine addiction. I just did that to not mess with my water fast :)

Keep the good work and hold in there!

Hard to tell if you look ultra calm or like you are about to snap lol
