40 hrs and 40 minutes into a planned 5 day fast. I got this! I spent last week preparing mentally and physically for this.
For my mental preparation, I re-read The Complete Guide to Fasting by DR. Jason Fung and Jimmy More. I have the kindle edition and the audible book. So, If I am not reading it, I am listening to it.
For my physical preparation, I had a number of 16:8's, a 22 hr fast and a 24 fast last week. I also dropped my carb intake a few days before to make the transition into this fast easier.
I my average steps per day is 13,337 and I intend to keep this up during my fast.
I WILL BE BACK IN THE GREEN in less than a week. I've factored in next week's holiday and vacationing. This could spell disaster but I got my eyes on the prize.
By the way, I am liking what I saw on the scale this morning and my glycogen stores are almost depleted so the numbers in the few days will be a combo of fat and water loss, as opposed to water only.
HAPPY TUESDAY!!!!!

You got it going. Just remember not to come off your Fast too fast. Spend 1 or 2 days on juices, liquids, and soft foods then gradually work back to more solid foods over the next couple days.

I almost asked my wife to lock me downstairs close to the 48hr mark. I pushed through, now I'm good.
